Measurements of the distance between two holes cut into 50 steel sheets are saved as values of the variable DISTANCE in the following data set: data sheets; input distance @@; label distance='Hole ...

Abstract: When a dataset from a non-negative random variable contains zero or very small observations, the folded-normal distribution (FND) can be an appropriate model for fitting the data. Such data ...

When we need our models to produce a full posterior distribution for our predictions, we can bring to bear the full suite of tools from Bayesian analysis. Sometimes, though, we need shortcuts: using ...

Q-Q plot (Quantile-Quantile) plots are graphs of two quantiles against each other. The purpose of a QQ plot is to find whether two sets of data have same distribution. One very common and standard use ...

We propose a new embedding method, named Quantile-Quantile Embedding (QQE), for distribution transformation and manifold embedding with the ability to choose the embedding distribution. QQE, which ...
