A straightforward expansion and integration of the frequency function for Fisher's $z$ produces a formula for the probability that $z$ is not exceeded, of which the ...

Scientists at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) have developed new insight into a formula that helped British cryptanalysts crack the German Enigma code in World War II. Scientists at the ...

Students of statistics and researchers in search of a stats review will appreciate the Probability-Distributions app designed by Dr. Matthew Bognar at the University of Iowa. The app includes ...

In this paper we consider large θ approximations for the stationary distribution of the neutral infinite alleles model as described by the the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with parameter θ. We prove ...

I HAVE recently 1 been investigating certain probability distributions arising from points possessing one of k colours or characters arranged on a line or in the form of a rectangular lattice. In the ...
