The aim of this paper is to show a possibility to identify multivariate distribution by means of specially constructed one-dimensional random variable. We give some inequalities which may appear to helpful for a construction of multivariate…
We consider the problem of deciding on sampling strategy, in particular sampling design. We propose a risk measure, whose minimizing value guides the choice. The method makes use of a superpopulation model and takes into account uncertainty…
The Richardson-Lucy unfolding approach is simple and excellently performing. It efficiently suppresses artificial high frequency contributions and permits to introduce known features of the true distribution. An algorithm to fix the number…
Entropy is a measure of heterogeneity widely used in applied sciences, often when data are collected over space. Recently, a number of approaches has been proposed to include spatial information in entropy. The aim of entropy is to…
The histogram is a key method for visualizing data and estimating the underlying probability distribution. Incorrect conclusions about the data result from over or under-binning. A new method based on the Shannon entropy of the histogram…
Existing learning-based point cloud upsampling methods often overlook the intrinsic data distribution charac?teristics of point clouds, leading to suboptimal results when handling sparse and non-uniform point clouds. We propose a novel…
Unfolding in high energy physics represents the correction of measured spectra in data for the finite detector efficiency, acceptance, and resolution from the detector to particle level. Recent machine learning approaches provide unfolding…
This paper presents a new evolutionary approach, EvoSplit, for the distribution of multi-label data sets into disjoint subsets for supervised machine learning. Currently, data set providers either divide a data set randomly or using…
Researchers frequently test and improve model fit by holding a sample constant and varying the model. We propose methods to test and improve sample fit by holding a model constant and varying the sample. Much as the bootstrap is a…
A new unimodal distribution family indexed by the mode and three other parameters is derived from a mixture of a Gumbel distribution for the maximum and a Gumbel distribution for the minimum. Properties of the proposed distribution are…
Detecting variation in the evolutionary process along chromosomes is increasingly important as whole-genome data becomes more widely available. For example, factors such as incomplete lineage sorting, horizontal gene transfer, and…
Probability models have been proposed in the literature to account for "intelligent" behavior in many contexts. In this paper, probability propagation is applied to model agent's motion in potentially complex scenarios that include goals…
Matrix inversion problems are often encountered in experimental physics, and in particular in high-energy particle physics, under the name of unfolding. The true spectrum of a physical quantity is deformed by the presence of a detector,…
We present an algorithm and package, Redistributor, which forces a collection of scalar samples to follow a desired distribution. When given independent and identically distributed samples of some random variable $S$ and the continuous…
In this work, we develop a method named Twinning, for partitioning a dataset into statistically similar twin sets. Twinning is based on SPlit, a recently proposed model-independent method for optimally splitting a dataset into training and…
In this paper, we propose a stratified sampling algorithm in which the random drawings made in the strata to compute the expectation of interest are also used to adaptively modify the proportion of further drawings in each stratum. These…
In this paper we describe RooFitUnfold, an extension of the RooFit statistical software package to treat unfolding problems, and which includes most of the unfolding methods that commonly used in particle physics. The package provides a…
Laplace distribution is popular in the field of economics and finance. Still, data sets often show a lack of symmetry and a tendency of being bounded from either side of their support. In view of this, we introduce a new family of skew…
Propensity score matching is a tool for causal inference in non-randomized studies that allows for conditioning on large sets of covariates. The use of propensity scores in the social sciences is currently experiencing a tremendous…
This paper presents mathematical results in support of the methodology of the probabilistic learning on manifolds (PLoM) recently introduced by the authors, which has been used with success for analyzing complex engineering systems. The…
