We use the domination number of a parametrized random digraph family called proportional-edge proximity catch digraphs (PCDs) for testing multivariate spatial point patterns. This digraph family is based on relative positions of data points…

In this paper we develop a new tool for the comparison of paired data based on a new criterion of stochastic dominance that takes into account the dependence structure of the random variables under comparison. This new procedure provides a…

Covariate-shift generalization, a typical case in out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization, requires a good performance on the unknown test distribution, which varies from the accessible training distribution in the form of covariate shift.…

Stochastic dominance of a random variable by a convex combination of its independent copies has recently been shown to hold within the relatively narrow class of distributions with concave odds function, and later extended to broader…

Max-stability is the property that taking a maximum between two inputs results in a maximum between two outputs. We study max-stability with respect to first-order stochastic dominance, the most fundamental notion of stochastic dominance in…

We consider Mc Kean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations (MVSDEs), which are SDEs where the drift and diffusion coefficients depend not only on the state of the unknown process but also on its probability distribution. This type of SDEs…
