Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) provides a scalable way to compute parameter estimates in applications involving large-scale data or streaming data. As an alternative version, averaged implicit SGD ...

A new study reveals that giraffes can use statistical inferences to predict the likelihood of receiving carrot slices rather than zucchini slices, Phys.org reports. According to researchers, this ...

With modern technology development, functional responses are observed frequently in fields such as biology, meteorology, and ergonomics, among others. Consider statistical inferences for functional ...

Recent developments in survival analysis have increasingly focused on integrating auxiliary information from external data sources to fortify inferences derived from modestly sized internal datasets.

Properties of estimators: unbiasedness, consistency, efficiency and sufficiency. Methods of estimation with particular emphasis given to the method of maximum likelihood. Hypothesis testing and ...

All of the captive kea were given the opportunity to participate in the sampling task, but not all of them were interested. (Credit: Amalia Bastos.) Those remarkable kea are at it again: now the ...
