Finite sampling inequalities: an application to two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics.
We review a finite-sampling exponential bound due to Serfling and discuss related exponential bounds for the hypergeometric distribution. We then discuss how such bounds motivate some new results for two-sample empirical processes. Our development complements recent results by Wei and Dudley (2012) concerning exponential bounds for two-sided Kolmogorov - Smirnov statistics by giving correspondi...
متن کاملCorrection algorithm for finite sample statistics.
Assume in a sample of size M one finds M(i) representatives of species i with i = 1..N*. The normalized frequency pi* triple bond Mi/M, based on the finite sample, may deviate considerably from the true probabilities p(i). We propose a method to infer rank-ordered true probabilities r(i) from measured frequencies M(i). We show that the rank-ordered probabilities provide important informations o...
متن کاملStatistics: An introduction to sample size calculations
One crucial aspect of study design is deciding how big your sample should be. If you increase your sample size you increase the precision of your estimates, which means that, for any given estimate / size of effect, the greater the sample size the more “statistically significant” the result will be. In other words, if an investigation is too small then it will not detect results that are in fac...
متن کاملComposite lifting of group inequalities and an application to two-row mixing inequalities
Given a valid inequality for the mixed integer infinite group relaxation, a composite lifting approach that combines sequential lifting and use of a fill-in function is proposed that can be used to strengthen this inequality. Properties of this composite lifting such as bounds on the solution of the lifting problem and some necessary conditions for the lifted inequality to be minimal for the mi...
متن کاملTwo-sample Statistics Based on Anisotropic Kernels
The paper introduces a new kernel-based Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) statistic for measuring the distance between two distributions given finitely-many multivariate samples. When the distributions are locally low-dimensional, the proposed test can be made more powerful to distinguish certain alternatives by incorporating local covariance matrices and constructing an anisotropic kernel. The ke...
