Widespread occurrence of the inverse square distribution in social sciences and taxonomy.
The widespread occurrence of an inverse square relation in the hierarchical distribution of subcommunities within communities (or subspecies within species) has been recently invoked as a signature of hierarchical self-organization within social and ecological systems. Here we show that, whether such systems are self-organized or not, this behavior is the consequence of the treelike classificat...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Plantar Pressure Distribution Pattern on the Occurrence of Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome in Military Soldiers during Military Training
Introduction: Medial tibial stress syndrome is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries among soldiers. However, there has not been a detailed report on the effect of risk-factors on its occurrence including the distribution of plantar pressure in military personnel and different communities. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of plantar pressure dist...

متن کاملBayesian Estimation of Shift Point in Shape Parameter of Inverse Gaussian Distribution Under Different Loss Functions
In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed for shift point detection in an inverse Gaussian distribution. In this study, the mean parameter of inverse Gaussian distribution is assumed to be constant and shift points in shape parameter is considered. First the posterior distribution of shape parameter is obtained. Then the Bayes estimators are derived under a class of priors and using variou...
