We argue that robust statistics has multiple goals, which are not always aligned. Robust thinking grew out of data analysis and the realisation that empirical evidence is at times supported merely by one or a few observations. The paper examines the outgro ...
Soil sorption processes largely control the environmental fate of herbicides. Therefore accuracy of sorption parameters is crucial for accurate prediction of herbicide mobility in agricultural soils. A combined experimental and statistical study was carrie ...
The Harmonoise reference model has been developed in order to predict long-term average sound levels in road and railway situations that are geometrically relatively simple but physically complex. The present paper describes all steps of calculations with ...
We report the first observation of the decay B̄0→Ds+Λ p̄ with a statistical significance of 6.6σ. We measure B(B̄0→Ds+Λp̄)=(2.9±0.7±0.5±0.4) ×10-5, where the first error is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third error comes from the uncertain ...
The aim of a particle transport theory in stochastic media is to describe the ensemble-averaged and higher moments of the flux by a relatively small set of deterministic equations. These equations based on the classical transport equations describe the tra ...
A phenomenological theory of the vacancy jump is presented. It is shown on one hand that diffusion of crystalline structure defects should be described as evolution of statistical distributions. On the other hand, a strong conceptual relation is noted betw ...
In the last decade, several Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methods for assessing impact of products on living resources have been developed. Beyond the quantified assessments of impacts on living systems, it also checked the feasibility of the impact assessme ...
One of the more useful dynamic data used by ATIS (Advanced Traveller Information Systems) and ATMS (Advanced Traffic Management Systems) applications is the link travel time, in particular for the DRGS (Dynamic Route Guidance Systems) case. Among the diffe ...
In this paper the modeling of a signal by a chaotic generator with respect to a specified signal statistic will be considered. To accomplish that, the considered class of n-dimensional piecewise linear Markov generators will first be analyzed analytically, ...
In this paper, we study the spatialization of the sound field in rooms, in particular the evolution of the room impulse responses in function of their spatial positions. Thanks to this study, we are now able to predict the sound field in any position knowi ...
