Approximation For The Expectation Of A Function Of The Sample Mean, Rasul A. Khan Jan 2004

Approximation For The Expectation Of A Function Of The Sample Mean, Rasul A. Khan

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

Let X¯ n be the mean of a random sample of size n from a distribution with mean μ and variance σ2. Under some conditions it is shown that Ef(X¯ n ) = f(μ) + (σ2/2n) f″(μ) + O(n −2), and var(f(X¯ n )) = (σ2/n) (f′(μ))2 + O(n −2), where f is a continuous function with a suitable growth condition. This complements a result of Lehmann [(1991). Theory of Point Estimation. Wadsworth, California] and Cramér [(1946). Mathematical Methods of Statistics. Princeton University Press, Princeton, N.J.] for wider application. An illustrative example is given to show an application where the …

Asymptotic And Numerical Solutions For Diffusion Models For Compounded Risk Reserves With Dividend Payments, Sally S. L. Shao, C. L. Chang Jan 2004

Asymptotic And Numerical Solutions For Diffusion Models For Compounded Risk Reserves With Dividend Payments, Sally S. L. Shao, C. L. Chang

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

We study a family of diffusion models for compounded risk reserves which account for the investment income earned and for the inflation experienced on claim amounts. We are interested in the models in which the dividend payments are paid from the risk reserves. After defining the process of conditional probability in finite time, martingale theory turns the nonlinear stochastic differential equation to a special class of boundary value problems defined by a parabolic equation with a nonsmooth coefficient of the convection term. Based on the behavior of the total income flow, asymptotic and numerical methods are used to solve the …


Real-Time 4d Tumor Tracking And Modeling From Internal And External Fiducials In Fluoroscopy, Johanna Brewer, Margrit Betke, David P. Gierga, George T.Y. Chen Jan 2004

Real-Time 4d Tumor Tracking And Modeling From Internal And External Fiducials In Fluoroscopy, Johanna Brewer, Margrit Betke, David P. Gierga, George T.Y. Chen

Computer Science: Faculty Publications

Fluoroscopy is currently used in treatment planning for patients undergoing radiation therapy. Radiation oncologists would like to maximize the amount of dose the tumor receives and minimize the amount delivered to the surrounding tissues. During treatment, patients breathe freely and so the tumor location will not be fixed. This makes calculating the amount of dose delivered to the tumor, and verifying that the tumor actually receives that dose, difficult. We describe a correlation- based method of tracking the two-dimensional (2D) motion of internal markers (surgical clips) placed around the tumor. We established ground truth and evaluated the accuracy of the …


An Analysis Of Simulated Long-Term Soil Moisture Data For Three Land Uses Under Contrasting Hydroclimatic Conditions In The Northern Great Plains, Rezaul Mamood, Kenneth G. Hubbard Jan 2004

An Analysis Of Simulated Long-Term Soil Moisture Data For Three Land Uses Under Contrasting Hydroclimatic Conditions In The Northern Great Plains, Rezaul Mamood, Kenneth G. Hubbard

High Plains Regional Climate Center: Personnel Publications

Soil moisture (SM) plays an important role in land surface and atmosphere interactions. It modifies energy balance near the surface and the rate of water cycling between land and atmosphere. The lack of observed SM data prohibits understanding of SM variations at climate scales under varying land uses. However, with simulation models it is possible to develop a long-term SM dataset and study these issues. In this paper a water balance model is used to provide a quantitative assessment of SM climatologies for three land uses, namely, irrigated corn, rain-fed corn, and grass, grown under three hydroclimatic regimes in Nebraska. …


The Mutamathil Type Style: Towards Free, Technology-Friendly, Arabetic Types, Saad D. Abulhab Jan 2004

The Mutamathil Type Style: Towards Free, Technology-Friendly, Arabetic Types, Saad D. Abulhab

Publications and Research

Efforts to adapt various Arabetic scripts to the machine are as old as the field of typography. But most of these efforts concentrated primarily on forcing the machine to duplicate the Arabetic handwritten forms. Others have practically advocated divorce from the calligraphic tradition rather than enrichment and reform. One reason why the few modern attempts to typographically solve the technology-induced Arabetic script problems had failed is that many typeforms (or many times just theoretical calligraphy style) was presented as replacement for the traditional ones rather than as optional working types. New “controversial” types should be made widely available for users …
