Location-scale invariant Bickel-Rosenblatt goodness-of-fit tests (IBR tests) are considered in this paper to test the hypothesis that f , the common density function of the observed independent d-dimensional random vectors, belongs to a null location-scale family of density functions. The asymptotic behaviour of the test procedures for fixed and non-fixed bandwidths is studied by using an unify...

[Background of this unusual double interview: the Free Software Magazine (http:// www.freesoftwaremagazine.com) and the TEX Users Group (TUG) both like to publish interviews. By chance, Gianluca Pignalberi of FSM and Dave Walden of TUG both approached Frank Mittelbach about interviewing him around the same time. Rather than doing two separate interviews, Mittelbach, Pignalberi, and Walden decid...

Large-scale, algorithmic access to LOD Cloud data has been hampered by the absence of queryable endpoints for many datasets, a plethora of serialization formats, and an abundance of idiosyncrasies such as syntax errors. As of late, very large-scale — hundreds of thousands of document, tens of billions of triples — access to RDF data has become possible thanks to the LOD Laundromat Web Service. ...

There are several theorical results about order statistics and copulas in the literature that have  been mentioned also by Nelsen cite{p20}. The present study after reviewing some of these results, relies on  simulation technique to investigate the mentioned results about order statistics and copulas. The study concentrates on two well known Archimedean Gumbel and Frank families in the case tha...

background: various techniques are used in diagnosing cardiac diseases. the electrocardiogram is one of these tools in common use. in this study vectorcardiogram ) vcg ( signals are used as a tool for detection of cardiac ischemia. methods: vcg signals used in this study were obtained form 60 patients suspected to have ischemia disease and 10 normal candidates. verification of the ischemia had ...
