A modified subset selection formulation with special reference to one-way and two-way layout experiments

The usual formulation of subset selection due to Gupta (1956) requires a minimum guaranteed probability of a correct selection. The modified formulation of the present paper includes an additional requirement that the expected number of the nonbest populations be bounded above by a specified constant when the best and the next best populations are ‘sufficiently’ apart. A class of procedures is defined and the determination of the minimum sample size required is discussed. The specific problems discussed for normal populations include selection in terms of means and variances, and selection in terms of treatment effects in a two-way layout.     

The mean of linear signed rank statistics under alternatives

An expression is presented for the mean of a linear signed rank statistic for the one sample location model. Several examples are given to illustrate its application.     

ROC Curves in Non‐Parametric Location‐Scale Regression Models

Abstract. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is a tool of extensive use to analyse the discrimination capability of a diagnostic variable in medical studies. In certain situations, the presence of a covariate related to the diagnostic variable can increase the discriminating power of the ROC curve. In this article, we model the effect of the covariate over the diagnostic variable by means of non‐parametric location‐scale regression models. We propose a new non‐parametric estimator of the conditional ROC curve and study its asymptotic properties. We also present some simulations and an illustration to a data set concerning diagnosis of diabetes.     

On shrinkage m-estimators of location parameters

For a general class of continuous ( and marginally symmetric ) inultivariate distributions, based on suitable M-statistics ( involving bounded but possibly discontinuous score generating functions), shrinkage estimators of location are considered. These estimators are based on the James-Stein type rule and incorporates the idea of preliminary test estimation too. The main emphasis is laid on the study of asymptotic tdistributional ) risk properties of these est-innators, and asymptotic tin-) adraissibility results are also studied under fairly general regularity conditions.

Multivariate forests with missing mixed outcomes

In this article, we propose a multivariate random forest method for multiple responses of mixed types with missing responses. Imputation is performed for each bootstrap sample used to build the individual trees that form the forest. The individual trees are built using a weighted splitting rule allowing downweighting of imputed observations. A simulation study shows the benefits of this approach over complete case analysis when missing responses are missing completely at random and missing at random (MAR). In particular, the gain in prediction accuracy of the proposed method is larger in the MAR case and also increases as the proportion of missing increases.     

利用Teager-Kaiser算子的多径信号抑制

为了解决多径干扰对无线定位精度的影响,该文在传统的窄带相关技术的基础上,利用TK算子对其进行改进。改进后的技术在不过多地增加计算负担的情况下,不仅保持了窄带相关技术对于长时延多径信号抑制的功能,而且还改善了其对短时延多径信号抑制效果不佳的缺陷。仿真结果证明,该算法对于无线信道的多径信号抑制起到了一定的改善作用,从而提高了无线定位精度。所以,该研究对于无线定位技术的工程应用和理论研究具有一定的参考价值。

Gaussian copula distributions for mixed data,with application in discrimination

The construction of a joint model for mixed discrete and continuous random variables that accounts for their associations is an important statistical problem in many practical applications. In this paper, we use copulas to construct a class of joint distributions of mixed discrete and continuous random variables. In particular, we employ the Gaussian copula to generate joint distributions for mixed variables. Examples include the robit-normal and probit-normal-exponential distributions, the first for modelling the distribution of mixed binary-continuous data and the second for a mixture of continuous, binary and trichotomous variables. The new class of joint distributions is general enough to include many mixed-data models currently available. We study properties of the distributions and outline likelihood estimation; a small simulation study is used to investigate the finite-sample properties of estimates obtained by full and pairwise likelihood methods. Finally, we present an application to discriminant analysis of multiple correlated binary and continuous data from a study involving advanced breast cancer patients.     

逆商教育与高校学生教育管理工作的改进

逆商教育不仅对个人成功具有重要意义，无论从心理学还是社会学的角度对当代大学生更是具有特殊意义。基于大学生逆商教育现状，我国高校结合自身的实际情况和所面临的社会环境，应就端正学生心理咨询观念、设立心理指导机构和开设教育课程、加强逆商心理测试监控、开展实践训练、注重教师价值引导和学生自主建构等方面，采取可操作的教育管理工作措施来促进逆商教育的开展和学生的成长成才。
