Some Statistical Methods for Prediction of Athletic Records
Prediction of the sports records has received a great deal of attention from researchers in different disciplines. This article reviews some of the methods developed by statisticians and offers few improvements. Specific methods discussed include trend analysis, tail modeling, and methods based on certain results of the theory of records for independent and identically distributed attempts. To ...
متن کاملPopulation Genetics: Difference Equation Models
The diversity of life is a fundamental empirical fact of nature. Casual observation alone confirms the great variety of species. But diversity also prevails within single species. As in human populations, the individuals of a species vary considerably in their outward traits—size and shape, external markings, fecundity, disease resistance, etc. This is called phenotypic variation, and, since ph...
متن کاملFUZZY LOGISTIC DIFFERENCE EQUATION
In this study, we consider two different inequivalent formulations of the logistic difference equation $x_{n+1}= beta x_n(1- x_n), n=0,1,..., $ where $x_n$ is a sequence of fuzzy numbers and $beta$ is a positive fuzzy number. The major contribution of this paper is to study the existence, uniqueness and global behavior of the solutions for two corresponding equations, using the concept of Huku...
متن کاملEstimating mixed-effects differential equation models
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are popular tools for modeling complicated dynamic systems in many areas. When multiple replicates of measurements are available for the dynamic process, it is of great interest to estimate mixed-effects in the ODE model for the process. We propose a semiparametric method to estimate mixed-effects ODE models. Rather than using the ODE numeric solution dire...
متن کاملAn Inversion-Free Estimating Equation Approach for Gaussian Process Models
Gaussian processes are a common analysis tool in statistics and uncertainty quantification. The covariance function of the process is generally unknown and often assumed to fall into some parameteric class. One of the scalability bottlenecks for the largescale usage of these processes is the computation of the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of the covariance matrix. In a classic...
