In his 1986 book, Aitchison explains that compositional data is regularly mishandled in statistical analyses, a pattern that continues to this day. The Dirichlet Type I distribution is a multivariate distribution commonly used to model a…

We employ distribution regression (DR) to estimate the joint distribution of two outcome variables conditional on chosen covariates. While Bivariate Distribution Regression (BDR) is useful in a variety of settings, it is particularly…

This paper proposes a unified approach to enable the study of diverse distributions in the real, complex, quaternion and octonion cases, simultaneously. In particular, the central, nonsingular matricvariate and matrix multivariate Pearson…

Uplift modeling estimates the causal effect of an intervention as the difference between potential outcomes under treatment and control, whereas counterfactual identification aims to recover the joint distribution of these potential…

The functional ANOVA expansion of a multivariate mapping plays a fundamental role in statistics. The expansion is unique once a unique distribution is assigned to the covariates. Recent investigations in the environmental and climate…

Two dimensional condensed matter is realised in increasingly diverse forms that are accessible to experiment and of potential technological value. The properties of these systems are influenced by many length scales and reflect both generic…

We propose a two-parameter bounded probability distribution called the extended power distribution. This distribution on $(0, 1)$ is similar to the beta distribution, however there are some advantages which we explore. We define the moments…

In recent years, a rich variety of shrinkage priors have been proposed that have great promise in addressing massive regression problems. In general, these new priors can be expressed as scale mixtures of normals, but have more complex…

If the prior probability distributions of all possible hypothetical true means and all possible observed means of a continuous variable are conditional on the universal set of all numbers (i.e., before the nature of a study is known and a…

It is shown that the exponential is the only distribution which satisfies a certain regression equation. This characterization equation involves the conditional expectation (regression function) of a record value given a pair of record…

The Kumaraswamy distribution has been proposed as an alternative to the beta distribution with more benign algebraic properties. They have the same two parameters, the same support and qualitatively similar shape for any parameter values.…

In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions by compounding the bivariate generalized exponential and power-series distributions. This new class contains some new sub-models such as the bivariate generalized…

Imagine being shown $N$ samples of random variables drawn independently from the same distribution. What can you say about the distribution? In general, of course, the answer is nothing, unless we have some prior notions about what to…

Algorithms are proposed for the computation of set-valued quantiles and the values of the lower cone distribution function for bivariate data sets. These new objects make data analysis possible involving an order relation for the data…

A theoretical framework is developed to describe the transformation that distributes probability density functions uniformly over space. In one dimension, the cumulative distribution can be used, but does not generalize to higher…

A random variable is equi-dispersed if its mean equals its variance. A Poisson distribution is a classical example of this phenomenon. However, a less well-known fact is that the class of normal densities that are equi-dispersed constitutes…
