Statistics and Soccer
OneTopicsgoals in soccer of the reasons why people are fascinated by soccer is the fact that chance plays a greater role here than in many other... -
Eigenvalues of Stochastic Blockmodel Graphs and Random Graphs with Low-Rank Edge Probability Matrices
We derive the limiting distribution for the outlier eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix for random graphs with independent edges whose edge...

Combining assumptions and graphical network into gene expression data analysis
BackgroundAnalyzing gene expression data rigorously requires taking assumptions into consideration but also relies on using information about network...

Scan Statistics on Graphs and Networks
This article summarizes modern research of scan statistics on graphs and networks. These statistics arise naturally in the scanning of time and space... -
Duality Between the Local Score of One Sequence and Constrained Hidden Markov Model
We are interested here in a theoretical and practical approach for detecting atypical segments in a multi-state sequence. We prove in this article...

Extremal clustering in non-stationary random sequences
It is well known that the distribution of extreme values of strictly stationary sequences differ from those of independent and identically...

Functionals of Telegraph Process
This chapter is devoted to the various functionals of telegraph processes. First, we present well-known results on distributions of the telegraph... -
Financial Modelling Based on Telegraph Processes
This last chapter of the book is devoted to financial applications of the previously described results. After brief preliminaries, the chapter opens... -
A general stochastic model for bivariate episodes driven by a gamma sequence
We propose a new stochastic model describing the joint distribution of ( X , N ), where N is a counting variable while X is the sum of N independent...

Order Statistics
In this chapter, recollecting the notion of order statistics introduced in Sect. 1.4 , we discuss the... -
Asymmetric Jump-Telegraph Processes
The concepts and results of Chap. 2 are generalised, first, to asymmetric processes equipped with jumps (of... -
Refining Invariant Coordinate Selection via Local Projection Pursuit
Invariant coordinate selection (ICS), introduced by Tyler et al. (J. Roy. Stat. Soc. B 71(3):549–592, 2009), is a powerful tool to find potentially... -
Preliminaries
In this chapter, we address and review key concepts that will be used in later chapters. In Sect. 1.1, we review briefly the key notions of... -
Digression on Multiple Testing: False Discovery Rates
A classical single hypothesis test proceeds by specifying... -
Improvements on SCORE, Especially for Weak Signals
A network may have weak signals and severe degree heterogeneity, and may be very sparse in one occurrence but very dense in another. SCORE (Ann....

Inference on extremal dependence in the domain of attraction of a structured Hüsler–Reiss distribution motivated by a Markov tree with latent variables
A Markov tree is a probabilistic graphical model for a random vector indexed by the nodes of an undirected tree encoding conditional independence...

Rank Statistics
Ranks and magnitude ranks are closely related with order and magnitude order statistics discussed in Chap. 2 ,... -
Solving Elliptic Equations with Brownian Motion: Bias Reduction and Temporal Difference Learning
The Feynman-Kac formula provides a way to understand solutions to elliptic partial differential equations in terms of expectations of continuous time...

A New Copula-Based Approach for Counting: The Distorted and the Limiting Case
The purpose of this chapter is to examine in depth the new algorithm for counting with dependence, assuming at first to have a hierarchy in the... -
A new trivariate model for stochastic episodes
We study the joint distribution of stochastic events described by ( X , Y , N ), where N has a 1-inflated (or deflated) geometric distribution and X , Y are...
