In the literature, quite a few measures have been proposed for quantifying the deviation of a probability distribution from symmetry. The most popular of these skewness measures are based on the third centralized moment and on quantiles.…
Dispersion is a fundamental concept in statistics, yet standard approaches - especially via stochastic orders - face limitations in the discrete setting. In particular, the classical dispersive order, well-established for continuous…
The measurement of dispersion is one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous statistical concepts, in both applied and theoretical contexts. For dispersion measures, such as the standard deviation, to effectively capture the variability of a…
Skewness measures can be used to measure the level of asymmetry of a distribution. Given the prevalence of statistical methods that assume underlying symmetry, and also the desire for symmetry in order to make meaningful judgements for…
An important aspect of the shape of a distribution is the level of asymmetry. Strong asymmetries play a role in many ecosystems and are found in the size and reproductive success of individuals. But the standard third moment coefficient of…
We present a general framework for a comparative theory of variability measures, with a particular focus on the recently introduced one-parameter families of inter-Expected Shortfall differences and inter-expectile differences, that are…
Our work is part of the close link between continuous-time dissipative dynamical systems and optimization algorithms, and more precisely here, in the stochastic setting. We aim to study stochastic convex minimization problems through the…
Ranking distributions according to a stochastic order has wide applications in diverse areas. Although stochastic dominance has received much attention, convex order, particularly in general dimensions, has yet to be investigated from a…
The general relationship between an arbitrary frequency distribution and the expectation value of the frequency distributions of its samples is discussed. A wide set of measurable quantities ("invariant moments") whose expectation value…
Several new geometric quantile-based measures for multivariate dispersion, skewness, kurtosis, and spherical asymmetry are defined. These measures differ from existing measures, which use volumes and are easy to calculate. Some theoretical…
To solve the problems in measuring coefficient of skewness related to extreme value, irregular distance from the middle point and distance between two consecutive numbers, "Rank skewness" a new measure of the coefficient of skewness has…
The expectile can be considered as a generalization of quantile. While expected shortfall is a quantile based risk measure, we study its counterpart -- the expectile based expected shortfall -- where expectile takes the place of quantile.…
Spaces with locally varying scale of measurement, like multidimensional structures with differently scaled dimensions, are pretty common in statistics and machine learning. Nevertheless, it is still understood as an open question how to…
In the first part of the paper, we study the inversion statistic of random permutations under the family $(\mathbb{P}_\theta^{(n)})_{\theta \ge 0}$ of Ewens sampling distributions on $S_n$. We obtain a rather simple exact formula for the…
We develop a skew-adaptive extension of split conformal prediction for regression. The method starts from an asymmetric interval family centered at a point prediction and uses the gauge approach to deduce the conformity score induced by…
In this paper, we propose to obtain the skewed version of a unimodal symmetric density using a skewing mechanism that is not based on a cumulative distribution function. Then we disturb the unimodality of the resulting skewed density. In…
A 2022 paper arXiv:2009.10305v4 introduced the notion of true positive and negative skewness for continuous random variables via Fr\'echet $p$-means. In this work, we find novel criteria for true skewness, establish true skewness for the…
We consider the weak convergence of numerical methods for stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Weak convergence is usually expressed in terms of the convergence of expected values of test functions of the trajectories. Here we present…
Recently defined expectile regions capture the idea of centrality with respect to a multivariate distribution, but fail to describe the tail behavior while it is not at all clear what should be understood by a tail of a multivariate…
The aim of this paper is to discuss both higher-order asymptotic expansions and skewed approximations for the Bayesian Discrepancy Measure for testing precise statistical hypotheses. In particular, we derive results on third-order…
