In this paper, we derive an explicit form of the convolution theorem for functions on an n-sphere. Our motivation comes from the design of a probability density estimator for n-dimensional random vectors. We propose a probability density function (pdf) est ...

A novel estimator for mutual information is proposed. The estimator is useful for the (asymmetric) scenario where only a few samples for one random variable are available, but for each sample, the conditional distribution of the other random variable can b ...

The goal of the Computers in Cardiology / Physionet Challenge 2009 is to predict which patients will experience acute hypotensive episode within a forecast window of one hour. In our study, statistically robust features extracted from the supplied training ...
In a recent publication, Haestier [J. Appl. Cryst. (2009), 42, 798-809] has proposed a method to take care of the unit-cell-parameter uncertainties in the calculation of geometric quantities such as interatomic distances and bond angles by modifying the un ...
This paper introduces a general framework that evaluates a numerical Bayesian multiresponse calibration approach based on a Gibbs within Metropolis searching algorithm and a statistical likelihood function. The methodology has been applied with two version ...
The newest release of the Evaluated Nuclear Data File, ENDF/B-VII.0, has recently become available, along with the announcement of its significant advances over previous versions. The older ENDF/B releases, however, have been assessed for numerous applicat ...
Rock fall hazard assessment and hazard mapping are essential for the risk management of vulnerable areas. This paper analyses some issues concerning fragmental rock fall hazard mapping methodologies. Two Swiss approaches based on rock fall trajectory simul ...
The COST-731 action is focused on uncertainty propagation in hydrometeorological forecasting chains. Goals and activities of the action Working Group 2 are presented. Five foci for discussion and research have been identified: (1) understand uncertainties, ...
The performances of kriging, stochastic simulations and sequential self-calibration inversion are assessed when characterizing a non-multiGaussian synthetic 2D braided channel aquifer. The comparison is based on a series of criteria such as the reproductio ...
This paper presents fragility functions to estimate the probability of reaching or exceeding different damage states in reduced beam section (RBS) beam-to-column moment connections of steel moment resisting frames. The fragility functions are developed usi ...
