Kernel methods provide an attractive framework for aggregating and learning from ranking data, and so understanding the fundamental properties of kernels over permutations is a question of broad interest. We provide a detailed analysis of the Fourier spectra of the standard Kendall and Mallows kernels, and a new class of polynomial-type kernels. We prove that the Kendall kernel has exactly two ...

Abstract This paper deals with the generalized convolutions connected Williamson transform and maximum operation. We focus on such which can define transition probabilities of renewal processes. They should be monotonic since described time or destruction does not go back, it admit existence a distribution lack memory property because analog Poisson process shall exist. Another valuable is simp...

While there is substantial need for dependence models in higher dimensions, most existing models quickly become rather restrictive and barely balance parsimony and flexibility. Hierarchical constructions may improve on that by grouping variables in different levels. In this paper, the new class of hierarchical Kendall copulas is proposed and discussed. Hierarchical Kendall copulas are built up ...

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to examine the effects of horse-riding simulator exercise and Kendall exercise on forward head posture. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty elderly college students with a forward head posture were randomly divided into two groups for 15 persons each, a horse-riding simulator group and Kendall exercise group, and performed exercise for eight weeks. [Results] The ho...
