Abstract: This work provides new bounds on the difference between the entropies of two discrete random variables in terms of the local and total variation distances between their probability mass ...

Abstract: We discuss properties of the “beamsplitter addition” operation, which provides a non-standard scaled convolution of random variables supported on the non-negative integers. We give a simple ...

Does astrology work? No, according to a detailed assessment of 152 astrologers that found their predictions were not only no better than random guessing, but also rarely agreed with each other. There ...

In the real world, probability is a tough thing to characterize. If I roll a die, what does it mean to say that it has a one-sixth chance of coming up 5? We say that the outcome is random because we ...

Engineering applications of the fractional Weibull distribution (fWd) are quite limited because a corresponding stochastic process is not yet constituted and completely analyzed of fundamental ...

B.F. Skinner was a renowned American psychologist and behaviorist. He made great contributions to the fields of psychology and sociology and one of his most helpful theories was that of operant ...
