Large sample interval estimation for the logarithmic series distribution

It is assumed that a large random sample of fixed size n is drawn from a logarithmic series distribution with parameter $tH and that it is desired to estimate e by means of two-sided confidence interval. Using asymptotic results, charts of confidence intervals are prepared for n = 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1,000, and confidence coefficients 0.90 and 0.95.     

Tests for the multivariate two-sample problem based on empirical probability measures

Nonparametric tests are proposed for the equality of two unknown p-variate distributions. Empirical probability measures are defined from samples from the two distributions and used to construct test statistics as the supremum of the absolute differences between empirical probabilities, the supremum being taken over all possible events. The test statistics are truly multivariate in not requiring the artificial ranking of multivariate observations, and they are distribution-free in the general p-variate case. Asymptotic null distributions are obtained. Powers of the proposed tests and a competitor are examined by Monte Carlo techniques.     

ROBUST COMPARISON OF DISPERSIONS FOR SAMPLES OF DIRECTIONAL DATA

Robust methods are proposed for testing whether several directional distributions on the unit p-sphere have comparable dispersions. The families of distributions considered are the Langevin for random vectors, and the Generalised Scheidegger-Watson for random axes, with specific interest in the Fisher and Watson distributions on the sphere. The methods are analogues of Levene's procedure for comparing variances of normal distributions.     

ESTIMATION OF GUARANTEE TIME AND MEAN LIFE AFTER WARRANTY FOR TWO-PARAMETER EXPONENTIAL FAILURE MODEL

Suppose manufactured items have failure times distributed with the two-parameter exponential density function à-^le-(x-μ)/à (x≥μ≥0). The paper considers estimation of the guarantee time μ and mean life after warranty à. Properties of various estimators are given for both separate and simultaneous estimation of μ and à. Criteria for comparing estimators are entropy loss, LINEX loss, and (generalized) Pitman nearness.     

Distribution of multivariate quadratic forms under certain covariance structures

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the covariance structure of all the observations in a multivariate factorial experiment under which certain multivariate quadratic forms are independent and distributed as a constant times a Wishart. It is also shown that exact multivariate test statistics can be formed for certain covariance structures of the observations when the assumption of equal covariance matrices for each normal population is relaxed. A characterization is given for the dependency structure between random vectors in which the sample mean and sample covariance matrix have certain properties.     

天线罩覆盖的波束近轴场

本文根据复射线法对通过介质天线罩的高斯波束场进行近轴近似分析。实空间的轴向复射线追综大大简化了计算过程,而复相位差、反射-传输系数和曲面扩散系数的进一步校正则提供了相当精确的结果。所得数字结果表明,在波束的近轴区域内为获得同样的计算精度,近轴近似法所需要的计算机时间远小于复射线追综法的时间。     

A note on the joint distribution of correlated quadratic forms

In the present paper, the authors obtained exact and asymptotic expressions for the joint distribution of correlated quadratic forms when the underlying distribution is a multivariate normal.     

GENERALIZED INVERSES USED IN RECURSIVE ESTIMATION OF THE GENERAL LINEAR MODEL1

Recursive methods in regression have proved useful in providing diagnostic tools for checking the model as well as checking the stability of the model over time. Such methods are now extended to deal with the problems of singularity that arise when one variable is completely confounded with previously fitted variables up to a particular time point. The problem is solved by setting it in the framework of the general linear model with dependent errors.
