Information amount and higher-order efficiency in estimation

By means of second-order asymptotic approximation, the paper clarifies the relationship between the Fisher information of first-order asymptotically efficient estimators and their decision-theoretic performance. It shows that if the estimators are modified so that they have the same asymptotic bias, the information amount can be connected with the risk based on convex loss functions in such a way that the greater information loss of an estimator implies its greater risk. The information loss of the maximum likelihood estimator is shown to be minimal in a general set-up. A multinomial model is used for illustration.     

石墨烯纳米带电极区N掺杂电子输运性质研究

运用密度泛函理论和非平衡格林函数结合的方法,研究电极区N掺杂对扶手椅型石墨烯纳米带电子输运特性的影响.结果表明,与本征扶手椅型石墨烯纳米带电流-电压曲线相比,宽度为7的石墨烯纳米带电流-电压曲线表现出明显的不对称性,其中心N掺杂表现强烈的整流特性,整流系数达到102数量级,且将N原子从电极区中心位置移动到边缘,整流特性减弱.研究结果表明宽度为7的扶手椅型石墨烯纳米带出现强整流现象的原因主要是负向偏压下能量窗内没有透射峰引起的,该研究结果对将来石墨烯整流器件的设计具有重要的意义.     

Generalized binomial and negative binomial distributions of order<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis> by the<Emphasis Type="Italic">l</Emphasis>-overlapping enumeration scheme

In this paper, we investigate the exact distribution of the waiting time for ther-th ℓ-overlapping occurrence of success-runs of a specified length in a sequence of two state Markov dependent trials. The probability generating functions are derived explicitly, and as asymptotic results, relationships of a negative binomial distribution of orderk and an extended Poisson distribution of orderk are discussed. We provide further insights into the run-related problems from the viewpoint of the ℓ-overlapping enumeration scheme. We also study the exact distribution of the number of ℓ-overlapping occurrences of success-runs in a fixed number of trials and derive the probability generating functions. The present work extends several properties of distributions of orderk and leads us a new type of geneses of the discrete distributions.     

A continuous parametric shape model

In this paper we propose a flexible continuous parametric shape model for star-shaped planar objects. The model is based on a polar Fourier expansion of the normalized radius-vector function. The expected phase amplitudes are modelled by a simple regression with parameters having nice geometric interpretations. The suggestedgeneralized p-order model is an extension of first- and second-order Gaussian shape models, and in particular the Gaussian assumption is relaxed. The statistical analysis is straightforward, as demonstrated by an application concerning shape discrimination of two cell nuclei populations.
