Exact variance structure of sample L-moments (2004)
Journal Article
Elamir, E. A., & Seheult, A. H. (2004). Exact variance structure of sample L-moments. Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 124(2), 337-359. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0378-3758%2803%2900213-1

Population L-moments have been proposed as alternatives to central moments for describing distribution location, dispersion and shape, and their sample estimates are unbiased. However, only asymptotic variances and covariances of their estimates have... Read More about Exact variance structure of sample L-moments.

Cells and representations of right-angled Coxeter groups (2004)
Journal Article
Belolipetsky, M. (2004). Cells and representations of right-angled Coxeter groups. Selecta Mathematica (New Series), 10(3), 325-339. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00029-004-0355-9

We study Kazhdan–Lusztig cells and the corresponding representations of right-angled Coxeter groups and Hecke algebras associated to them. In case of the infinite groups generated by reflections in the hyperbolic plane about the sides of right-angled... Read More about Cells and representations of right-angled Coxeter groups.

Coherent lower previsions in systems modelling: products and aggregation rules (2004)
Journal Article
De Cooman, G., & Troffaes, M. C. (2004). Coherent lower previsions in systems modelling: products and aggregation rules. Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 85(1-3), 113-134. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ress.2004.03.007

We discuss why coherent lower previsions provide a good uncertainty model for solving generic uncertainty problems involving possibly conflicting expert information. We study various ways of combining expert assessments on different domains, such as... Read More about Coherent lower previsions in systems modelling: products and aggregation rules.

Local Smoothing with Robustness against outlying Predictors (2004)
Journal Article
Einbeck, J., Andre, C. D., & Singer, J. M. (2004). Local Smoothing with Robustness against outlying Predictors. Environmetrics, 15(6), 541-554. https://doi.org/10.1002/env.644

Outlying pollutant concentration data are frequently observed in time series studies conducted to investigate the effects of atmospheric pollution on mortality/morbidity. These outliers may severely affect the estimation procedures and even generate... Read More about Local Smoothing with Robustness against outlying Predictors.

Integrable quantum field theory with boundaries: The exact g-function (2004)
Journal Article
Dorey, P., Fioravanti, D., Rim, C., & Tateo, R. (2004). Integrable quantum field theory with boundaries: The exact g-function. Nuclear Physics B, 696(3), 445-467. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2004.06.045

The g-function was introduced by Affleck and Ludwig in the context of critical quantum systems with boundaries. In the framework of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) method for relativistic scattering theories, all attempts to write an exact integ...

Nonparametric predictive inference and interval probability (2004)
Journal Article
Augustin, T., & Coolen, F. (2004). Nonparametric predictive inference and interval probability. Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 124(2), 251-272. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jspi.2003.07.003

The assumption A(n), proposed by Hill (J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 63 (1968) 677), provides a natural basis for low structure non-parametric predictive inference, and has been justified in the Bayesian framework. This paper embeds A(n)-based inference i...
