The purpose of this paper is to provide a random version of Simons' inequality.

A representation of heterogeneous stochastic populations that are composed of sub-populations with different levels of distinguishability is introduced together with an analysis of its properties. It is demonstrated that any instance of…

This paper is meant as a contribution to the often debated subject of how to combine data which appear to be in mutual disagreement. As a practical example, the epsilon-prime/epsilon determinations have been considered.

Several combinatorial identities are presented, involving Stirling functions of the second kind with a complex variable. The identities involve also Stirling numbers of the first kind, binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers.

We perform certain alternating binomial summations with parameters that occur in the analysis of algorithms. A combination of integral and special function and special number representations is used. The results are sufficiently general to…

This paper describes several applications in astronomy and cosmology that are addressed using probabilistic modelling and statistical inference.

We consider the "multi-frequency" periodogram, in which the putative signal is modelled as a sum of two or more sinusoidal harmonics with idependent frequencies. It is useful in the cases when the data may contain several periodic…

In this paper, we establish a fundamental connection between binomial parameters and means of bounded random variables. Such connection finds applications in statistical inference of means of bounded variables.

As the amount of linked data published on the web grows, attempts are being made to describe and measure it. However even basic statistics about a graph, such as its size, are difficult to express in a uniform and predictable way. In order…

For a paradigmatic case, the standard map, we discuss how the statistical description of the approach to equilibrium is related to the sensitivity to the initial conditions of the system. Using a numerical analysis we present an anomalous…

We discuss single adaptive measurements for the estimation of mixed quantum states of qubits. The results are compared to the optimal estimation schemes using collective measurements. We also demonstrate that the advantage of collective…

In this review, we present some advanced algorithms and programs used in our scientific school with short description of types of astrophysical systems, which we study. However, we discuss mainly mathematical methods, which may be applied…

It has long been a puzzle how to solve random multiplicative cascade structures analytically. We present an analytical solution found recently in the form of a simple pedagogical example of the general case.

In this note we present examples of cumulative connection constants included new fibonomial ones. All examples posses combinatorial interpretation.

A new combinatorial-probabilistic diagnostic entropy has been introduced. It describes the pair-wise sum of probabilities of system conditions that have to be distinguished during the diagnosing process. The proposed measure describes the…

This letter investigates the joint recovery of a frequency-sparse signal ensemble sharing a common frequency-sparse component from the collection of their compressed measurements. Unlike conventional arts in compressed sensing, the…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of assessing statistical methods and effectively summarizing results from simulations. Specifically, we consider problems of the type where multiple methods are compared on a reasonably large test…

Modern technologies are generating ever-increasing amounts of data. Making use of these data requires methods that are both statistically sound and computationally efficient. Typically, the statistical and computational aspects are treated…

Gibbs random fields play an important role in statistics, however, the resulting likelihood is typically unavailable due to an intractable normalizing constant. Composite likelihoods offer a principled means to construct useful…

The purpose of this article is to present, in a simple way, an analytic approach to special numbers and polynomials. The approach is based on the derivative polynomials. The paper is, to some extent, a review article, although it contains…
