Probability distributions in Stiefel manifold such as the von-Mises Fisher and Bingham distributions find diverse applications in signal processing and other applied sciences. Use of these statistical models in practice is complicated by…
We derive a simple and precise approximation to probability density functions in sampling distributions based on the Fourier cosine series. After clarifying the required conditions, we illustrate the approximation on two examples: the…
In this paper we show how to find the exact error (not just an estimate of the error) of a conforming mixed approximation by using the functional type a posteriori error estimates in the spirit of Repin. The error is measured in a mixed…
Recently Koivusalo, Levesley, Ward and Zhang introduced the set of simultaneously $\Phi$-badly approximable real vectors of $\mathbb{R}^m$ with respect to an approximation function $\Phi$, and determined its Hausdorff dimension for the…
We establish a novel convergent iteration framework for a weak approximation of general switching diffusion. The key theoretical basis of the proposed approach is a restriction of the maximum number of switching so as to untangle and…
Differential and falsified sampling expansions $\sum_{k\in \mathbb{Z}^d}c_k\phi(M^jx+k)$, where $M$ is a matrix dilation, are studied. In the case of differential expansions, $c_k=Lf(M^{-j}\cdot)(-k)$, where $L$ is an appropriate…
Conformal prediction yields a prediction set with guaranteed $1-\alpha$ coverage of the true target under the i.i.d. assumption, which may not hold and lead to a gap between $1-\alpha$ and the actual coverage. Prior studies bound the gap…
In this paper, we examine the distribution and convergence properties of the estimation error $W = X - \hat{X}(Y)$, where $\hat{X}(Y)$ is the Bayesian estimator of a random variable $X$ from a noisy observation $Y = X +\sigma Z$ where…
Standard large deviation estimates or the use of the Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation reduce the analysis of the distribution of the overlap parameters essentially to that of an explicitly known random function $\Phi_{N,\b}$ on $\R^M$.…
We analyze algorithms that output absolutely normal numbers digit-by-digit with respect to quality of convergence to normality of the output, measured by the discrepancy. We consider explicit variants of algorithms by Sierpinski, by Turing…
The Fisher-Bingham distribution ($\mathrm{FB}_8$) is an eight-parameter family of probability density functions (PDF) on $S^2$ that, under certain conditions, reduce to spherical analogues of bivariate normal PDFs. Due to difficulties in…
We provide a uniform bound on the partial sums of multiplicative functions under very general hypotheses. As an application, we give a nearly optimal estimate for the count of $n \le x$ for which the Alladi-Erd\H{o}s function $A(n) =…
In this paper, we prove a local limit theorem for the chi-square distribution with $r > 0$ degrees of freedom and noncentrality parameter $\lambda \geq 0$. We use it to develop refined normal approximations for the survival function. Our…
The Fourier transform is approximated over a finite domain using a Riemann sum. This Riemann sum is then expressed in terms of the discrete Fourier transform, which allows the sum to be computed with a fast Fourier transform algorithm more…
Following the theory of information measures based on the cumulative distribution function, we propose the fractional generalized cumulative entropy, and its dynamic version. These entropies are particularly suitable to deal with…
A well-known discovery of Feige's is the following: Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ be nonnegative independent random variables, with $\mathbb{E}[X_i] \leq 1 \;\forall i$, and let $X = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i$. Then for any $n$, \[\Pr[X < \mathbb{E}[X] +…
In this work, we develop a method for rational approximation of the Fourier transform (FT) based on the real and imaginary parts of the complex error function \[ w(z) = e^{-z^2}(1 - {\rm{erf}}(-iz)) = K(x,y) + iL(x,y), \qquad z = x + iy, \]…
We have shown recently that integration of the error function ${\rm{erf}}\left( x \right)$ represented in form of a sum of the Gaussian functions provides an asymptotic expansion series for the constant pi. In this work we derive a rational…
In this work, we adopt a general framework based on the Gibbs posterior to update belief distributions for inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). The Gibbs posterior formulation is a generalization of standard…
The direct Gaussian copula model with discrete marginal distributions is an appealing data-analytic tool but poses difficult computational challenges due to its intractable likelihood. A number of approximations/surrogates for the…
