Autocontinuity from below of Set Functions and Convergence in Measure
In this note, the concepts of strong autocontinuity from below and strong converse autocontinuity from below of set function are introduced. By using four types of autocontinuity from below of monotone measure, the relationship between convergence in measure and pseudo-convergence in measure for sequence of measurable function are discussed.
متن کاملLine Transects of Two Dimensional Random Fields: Estimation and Design
In line transect sampling, data are collected continuously along the path travelled. These data are then used to estimate some characteristic of an entire region. We model the characteristic of the region as a linear functional of Z(), a realization of a random eld, and our data as the values of Z(x) for x along the path. We study how to estimate the characteristic of interest and how to choose...
متن کاملBehaviour and Convergence of the Constrained Covariance
We discuss reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS)-based measures of statistical dependence, with emphasis on constrained covariance (COCO), a novel criterion to test dependence of random variables. We show that COCO is a test for independence if and only if the associated RKHSs are universal. That said, no independence test exists that can distinguish dependent and independent random variables...
متن کاملModeling spatial covariance functions
Choi, InKyung Ph.D., Purdue University, December 2014. Modeling spatial covariance functions. Major Professor: Hao Zhang. Covariance modeling plays a key role in the spatial data analysis as it provides important information about the dependence structure of underlying processes and determines performance of spatial prediction. Various parametric models have been developed to accommodate the id...
متن کاملCOVARIANCE MATRIX OF MULTIVARIATE REWARD PROCESSES WITH NONLINEAR REWARD FUNCTIONS
Multivariate reward processes with reward functions of constant rates, defined on a semi-Markov process, first were studied by Masuda and Sumita, 1991. Reward processes with nonlinear reward functions were introduced in Soltani, 1996. In this work we study a multivariate process , , where are reward processes with nonlinear reward functions respectively. The Laplace transform of the covar...
