Show moreScope of Work: The scope of work associated with this work is: Isolate the contaminated drywall, place a negative air unit in work area and exhaust to outside. In small pieces remove drywall, bag seal and transport to out of building in sealed manner. Clean remaining drywall and studs with fungicide, and paint with encapsulating fungicide paint. Any remaining non-contaminated building materials will remain. These items will be cleaned and treated with an approved biocide. When these materials are dry a sealant/encaplsulant will be applied to the material, if warranted. Wet wipe entire enclosure for inspection. Remove plastic barriers and replace any item moved for work. Housekeep area as leaving. Lock all doors and secure room(s).

Show moreFocusing on the discrete probabilistic setting we generalize the combinatorial definition of cumulants to L-cumulants. This generalization keeps all the desired properties of the classical cumulants like semi-invariance and vanishing for independent blocks of random variables. These properties make L-cumulants useful for the algebraic analysis of statistical models. We illustrate this for general Markov models and hidden Markov processes in the case when the hidden process is binary. The main motivation of this work is to understand cumulant-like coordinates in alge- braic statistics and to give a more insightful explanation why tree cumulants give such an elegant description of binary hidden tree models. Moreover, we argue that L-cumulants can be used in the analysis of certain classical algebraic varieties.

Title: Generalized Fréchet Bounds for Cell Entries in Multidimensional Contingency Tables, Special Volume in honor of memory of S.E.Fienberg

Show moreWe consider the lattice, L, of all subsets of a multidimensional contingency table and establish the properties of monotonicity and supermodularity for the marginalization function, n(·), on L. We derive from the supermodularity of n(·) some generalized Fr ́echet inequalities comple- menting and extending inequalities of Dobra and Fienberg. Further, we construct new monotonic and supermodular functions from n(·), and we remark on the connection between supermodularity and some correlation inequalities for probability distributions on lattices. We also apply an inequal- ity of Ky Fan to derive a new approach to Fr ́echet inequalities for multidimensional contingency tables.

Show moreLet G be a finite group, let CG be the complex group algebra of G, and let p ∈ CG. In this paper, we show how to construct submodules S of CG of a fixed dimension with the property that the orthogonal projection of p onto S has maximal length. We then provide an example of how such submodules for the symmetric group Sn can be used to create new linear rank tests of uniformity in statistics for survey data that arises when respondents are asked to give a complete ranking of n items.

Show moreWe consider an exact sequential conditional test for three-way conditional test of no interaction. At each time τ, the test uses as the conditional inference frame the set F(Hτ) of all tables with the same three two-way marginal tables as the obtained table Hτ . For 3 × 3 × K tables, we propose a method to construct F(Hτ) from F(Hτ−1). This enables us to perform efficiently the sequential exact conditional test. The subset Sτ of F (Hτ ) consisting of s + Hτ − Hτ −1 for s ∈ F(Hτ−1) contains Hτ , where the operations + and − are defined elementwise. Our argument is based on the minimal Markov basis for 3 × 3 × K contingency tables and we give a minimal subset M of some Markov basis which has the property that F (Hτ ) = {s − m | s ∈ Sτ , m ∈ M}.

Show moreWe investigate the problem of completing partial matrices to rank-one matrices in the standard simplex ∆mn−1. The motivation for studying this problem comes from statistics: A lack of eligible completion can provide a falsification test for partial observations to come from the independence model. For each pattern of specified entries, we give equations and inequalities which are satisfied if and only if an eligible completion exists. We also describe the set of valid completions, and we optimize over this set.

Show moreAbstract. Theidentifiabilityofparametersinaprobabilisticmodelisacrucialnotioninstatistical inference. We prove that a general tensor of rank 8 in C3 ⊗ C6 ⊗ C6 has at least 6 decompositions as sum of simple tensors, so it is not 8-identifiable. This is the highest known example of balanced tensors of dimension 3, which are not k-identifiable, when k is smaller than the generic rank.

Show moreIn [2] Buczyn ́ska and Wi ́sniewski showed that the Hilbert polynomial of the algebraic variety associated to the Jukes-Cantor binary model on a trivalent tree depends only on the number of leaves of the tree and not on its shape. We ask if this can be generalized to other group-based models. The Jukes-Cantor binary model has Z2 as the underlying group. We consider the Kimura 3-parameter model with Z2 × Z2 as the underlying group. We show that the generalization of the statement about the Hilbert polynomials to the Kimura 3-parameter model is not possible as the Hilbert polynomial depends on the shape of a trivalent tree.
