We examine three probabilistic formulations of the sentence a and b are totally unrelated with respect to a given set of variables U. First, two variables a and b are totally independent if they are independent given any value of any subset…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of deciding whether two standard normal random vectors $\mathsf{X}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}$ and $\mathsf{Y}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}$ are correlated or not. This is formulated as a hypothesis testing problem,…
The statistics of records in sequences of independent, identically distributed random variables is a classic subject of study. One of the earliest results concerns the stochastic independence of record events. Recently, records statistics…
We investigate a data-driven approach to constructing uncertainty sets for robust optimization problems, where the uncertain problem parameters are modeled as random variables whose joint probability distribution is not known. Relying only…
It is well known that while the independence of random variables implies zero correlation, the opposite is not true. Namely, uncorrelated random variables are not necessarily independent. In this note we show that the implication could be…
We consider a system of weak* closed sets of finite-dimensional distributions. We show that a corresponding system of random variables can be defined on a probability space with a probability measure determined up to some set of measures,…
Quantization for a probability distribution refers to the idea of estimating a given probability by a discrete probability supported by a finite number of points. In this paper, firstly a general approach to this process is outlined using…
In this paper a constructive method to determine and compute probabilistic reachable and invariant sets for linear discrete-time systems, excited by a stochastic disturbance, is presented. The samples of the disturbance signal are not…
Even though strongly correlated systems are abundant, only a few exceptional cases admit analytical solutions. In this paper we present a large class of solvable systems with strong correlations.. We consider a set of $N$ independent and…
We present general principles underlying analysis of the dependence of random variables (outputs) on deterministic conditions (inputs). Random outputs recorded under mutually exclusive input values are labeled by these values and considered…
A new definition of random sets is proposed. It is based on the distance in measurable space and uses negative definite kernels for continuation from initial space to that of random sets. This approach has no connection to Hausdorff…
In this paper, we obtain general representations for the joint distributions and copulas of arbitrary dependent random variables absolutely continuous with respect to the product of given one-dimensional marginal distributions. The…
We analyze various uncertainty measures for spatial diffusion processes. In this manifestly non-quantum setting, we focus on the existence issue of complementary pairs whose joint dispersion measure has strictly positive lower bound.
A random dense countable set is characterized (in distribution) by independence and stationarity. Two examples are `Brownian local minima' and `unordered infinite sample'. They are identically distributed; the former ad hoc proof of this…
As the extension of uncorrelated single-valued random variables, set-valued case is studied in this paper. When the underlying space is of finite dimension, by using the support function, We shall prove the weak and strong laws of large…
The Contextuality-by-Default approach to determining and measuring the (non)contextuality of a system of random variables requires that every random variable in the system be represented by an equivalent set of dichotomous random variables.…
Permutations of correlated sequences of random variables appear naturally in a variety of applications such as graph matching and asynchronous communications. In this paper, the asymptotic statistical behavior of such permuted sequences is…
Robust estimators, like the median of a point set, are important for data analysis in the presence of outliers. We study robust estimators for locationally uncertain points with discrete distributions. That is, each point in a data set has…
Appropriately normalized square random Vandermonde matrices based on independent random variables with uniform distribution on the unit circle are studied. It is shown that as the matrix sizes increases without bound, with respect to the…
We determine the pair correlations of countable sets $T \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ satisfying natural equidistribution conditions. The pair correlations are computed as the volume of a certain region in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$, which can be expressed…
