Stochastic comparisons are quite helpful in optimizing system designs by evaluating the performance of different configurations and ensuring that critical systems meet reliability standards under diverse conditions. In this paper, we discuss stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of two-series–parallel systems with independent components randomly chosen from two different batches. We assume the components from the first batch is more reliable than the components from the second batch. Then, in the case of two-series–parallel system, we prove that the reliability of the system increases in terms of the usual stochastic order, as the random number, , taking values in , of components chosen from the first batch increases in increasing concave order or the random number, , taking values in , of components chosen from the first batch decreases in increasing convex order. We also present some numerical examples to illustrate all the results established here.

Continuous monitoring is becoming more popular due to its significant benefits, including reducing sample sizes and reaching earlier conclusions. In general, it involves monitoring nuisance parameters (e.g., the variance of outcomes) until a specific condition is satisfied. The blinded method, which does not require revealing group assignments, was recommended because it maintains the integrity of the experiment and mitigates potential bias. Although Friede and Miller (2012) investigated the characteristics of blinded continuous monitoring through simulation studies, its theoretical properties are not fully explored. In this paper, we aim to fill this gap by presenting the asymptotic and finite-sample properties of the blinded continuous monitoring for continuous outcomes. Furthermore, we examine the impact of using blinded versus unblinded variance estimators in the context of continuous monitoring. Simulation results are also provided to evaluate finite-sample performance and to support the theoretical findings.

In the context of statistical causal inference using linear structural equation models, researchers in the field of artificial intelligence and statistical science have developed several identification conditions for evaluating causal effects. However, there are some scenarios where several identification conditions can be applied simultaneously to estimate causal effects. To enhance estimation accuracy, we focus on five key identification conditions: the back-door criterion, the front-door criterion, the front-door-like criterion, the conditional instrumental variable condition, and the effect restoration condition. We then compare these five identification conditions in terms of estimation accuracy (asymptotic variance) and conclude that, in some cases, the qualitative comparison of estimation accuracy among these identification conditions can be directly assessed from the graphical structure, even before statistical data are collected.

This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of local linear quantile regression estimators for spatial data generated by strictly stationary and associated spatial processes . We study local linear estimators for both the conditional quantile function and its first-order partial derivatives. Under appropriate regularity conditions, we derive the Bahadur representation for these estimators, which is utilized to establish their joint asymptotic normality. To assess finite-sample performance, we conduct Monte Carlo simulations in a two-dimensional space (). The results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed estimators and confirm the theoretical asymptotic properties.

Bivariate time-to-event data, subject to right censoring, frequently arise in medical research. This paper introduces a novel nonparametric multiple imputation (MI) procedure for analyzing censored bivariate time-to-event data. Our methodology offers a straightforward, easy-to-implement inverse transform MI method that effectively captures the joint distribution of bivariate random variables through the imputation of censored event-times.

For high-throughput low-rank data, CANDECOMP/PARAFAC () decomposition is frequently employed to reduce the dimensionality to a manageable level. In this article, we consider a Vector-Tensor linear regression model, where the low-rank structure is expressed through CP decomposition, and the change-point structure is incorporated into the multi-array coefficients. A novel procedure is proposed to jointly detect the change-point and estimate the tensor structure by minimizing the sum of squared residuals. The associated algorithm is developed based on Alternating Least Squares (ALS) algorithm, and is computationally efficient and scalable. Furthermore, we establish the consistency of the change-point estimator under a set of general conditions. Simulations and empirical studies illustrate the validity and effectiveness.

Doubly balanced samples from spatial populations have approximate balance on auxiliary variables and spread over spatial coordinates. This article shows that doubly balanced sampling is also efficient on non-spatial populations when we balance on auxiliary variables and spread over the space spanned by them. Numerical results on three example applications show that our extension of doubly balanced sampling works well in practice.

We consider the problem of deriving uniform confidence bands for the mean of a monotonic stochastic process, such as the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a random variable, based on a sequence of i.i.d. observations. Our approach leverages the coin-betting framework, and inherits several favourable characteristics of coin-betting methods. In particular, for each point in the domain of the mean function, we obtain anytime-valid confidence intervals that are numerically tight and adapt to the variance of the observations. To derive uniform confidence bands, we employ a continuous union bound that crucially leverages monotonicity. In the case of CDF estimation, we also exploit the fact that the empirical CDF is piece-wise constant to obtain simple confidence bands that can be easily computed. In simulations, we find that our confidence bands for the CDF achieve state-of-the-art performance.

Rosco et al. (2011) introduced and studied the sinh-arcsinh (SAS-) distribution. In this article, we introduce a modified version of that distribution which we call the eschewed sinh-arcsinh (ESAS-) distribution. The new proposal proves to be somewhat simpler than the former and, on balance, given the pros and cons listed in the article, we now recommend the ESAS- distribution over the SAS- distribution as the preferable version of a sinh-arcsinh distribution.
