The coin package implements a unified approach for conditional inference procedures commonly known as permutation tests. The theoretical basis of design and implementation is the unified framework for permutation tests given by Strasser and Weber (1999). For a very flexible formulation of multivariate linear statistics, Strasser and Weber (1999) derived the conditional expectation and covarianc...

Conditional rewriting modulo axioms with rich types makes specifications and declarative programs very expressive and succinct and is used in all well-known rule-based languages. However, the current foundations of rewriting modulo axioms have focused for the most part on the unconditional and untyped case. The main purpose of this work is to generalize the foundations of rewriting modulo axiom...

We give a general formulation of a non-Gaussian conditional linear AR(1) model subsuming most of the non-Gaussian AR(1) models that have appeared in the literature. We derive some general results giving properties for the stationary process mean, variance and correlation structure, and conditions for stationarity. These results highlight similarities and differences with the Gaussian AR(1) mode...

BACKGROUND Some aspects of prognosis are not reflected by cumulative survival estimates. These aspects include information on the time already survived by the patient and the patient's survival compared with the general population. Conditional survival (ie, conditional on having survived a certain period of time already) and relative conditional survival (ie, compared with the general populatio...

We introduce a new abstract approach to the study of conditional independence, founded on a concept analogous to the factoriza-tion properties of probabilistic independence, rather than the separation properties of a graph. The basic ingredient is the \con-ditional product", which provides a way of combining the objects under consideration while preserving as much independence as possible. We i...

The purpose of this study is to define the concepts of Tsallis entropy and conditional Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions and to obtain some results concerning this kind entropy. We show that the Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions has the subadditivity and concavity properties. We study this information measure under the refinement and zero mode subset relations. We check the chain rules for ...

While economic deterrence models are fully based on maximizing economic utility; social psychology models explain human behavior by examining the underlying attitudes, norms and beliefs. Tax morale is defined as the intrinsic motivation to pay taxes. However, determinants of tax morale need to be investigated for a more comprehensive understanding of tax morale. In this paper we analyze the mos...
