The decline in the Monarch population now marks a statistical long-term trend and can no longer be seen as a combination of yearly or seasonal events, experts say.
Inventive new shows, Mr. Giovannoni's foes contend, will not survive statistical scrutiny long enough to build an audience.
A new algorithm is developed here for Monte Carlo simulation of turbulent diffusion with random velocity fields having a power law spatial spectrum, arbitrarily many statistical scales, long range correlations, and infrared divergence.
This analysis strategy brought into focus two very important statistical concepts, long neglected in traditional biomarker research: the importance of combining individual, independent markers into multivariate prediction models; and the need to guard against false discovery due to multiple comparisons.
"If you have been around statistics and statistical techniques as long as most experienced economists have you would quickly see how soft most of the evidence appears to he," Mr. Cox said.
Holocene fire histories were reconstructed by combining charcoal counts and age-depth models to obtain charcoal accumulation rates and, after statistical treatment, long-term trends in fire occurrence (expressed as number of fires per 1000 years).
Every name on our list had to meet a gamut of statistical measurements: long-term profitability, sales and earnings growth, plus projected earnings and stock-price gains (we look ahead as well as back).
In the general cancer population, one-ninth of patients are at higher risk of developing a second tumor over a lifetime; hence it would be reasonable to conclude that, from a merely theoretical and statistical viewpoint, long-term transplanted patients potentially have a higher risk of developing MPMs.
Yet there is no statistical probability as long as there is only one known planet with life.
Therefore MLP could be useful statistical models, as long as convergence conditions are respected.
