Robbins (1968) considered the problem of estimating the total probability of the unobserved outcomes of an experiment. In this paper we suggest an estimator, based on n trials, and show that under ...

Kernel density estimation (KDE) and nonparametric methods form a cornerstone of contemporary statistical analysis. Unlike parametric approaches that assume a specific functional form for the ...

Survey sampling and estimation methods form the cornerstone of modern statistical inference, underpinning research across the social, medical, and natural sciences. At their heart, these methods ...

Even small probabilities of infection for individuals compound to large probabilities for a large number of people. Carnival needs low risk passengers and screening to be near 100% effective to reduce ...

Insurance can effectively mitigate significant operational risks. However, not all losses are insurable, and payments of covered losses are not generally reimbursed in full for reasons including the ...

Basel II requires that banks use downturn loss given default (LGD) estimates in regulatory capital calculations, citing the fact that the probability of default (PD) and LGD correlations are not ...

Women who are diagnosed with breast cancer at a young age, or at an advanced stage at any age, are more likely to die from the disease than from all other causes of death combined, according to a new ...
