... the number replications used. For this reason, we call the latter maximized Monte Carlo (MMC) tests. As one would expect for a statistic whose distribution depends on unknown nuisance parameters, the probability of type I error for a MMC test can be lower (but not higher) than the level of the test ...

Research Article Estimation of Log-Linear-Binomial
... As a generalization for the binomial distribution, Lovison 7 has derived the distribution of the sum of dependent Bernoulli random variables as an alternative of Altham’s multiplicative-binomial distribution 8 from Cox’s log-linear representation 9 for the joint distribution of n binary-depend ...

Using statistical methods to create a bilingual dictionary
... A probabilistic bilingual dictionary assigns to each possible translation a probability measure to indicate how likely the translation is. This master's thesis covers a method to compile a probabilistic bilingual dictionary, (or bilingual lexicon), from a parallel corpus (i.e. large documents that a ...

On the Logic and Purpose of Significance Testing
... One of the most critical requirements of corroboration is objectivity. The desire for objective verification can be traced at least as far back as Kant's (1781) Critique of Pure Reason and his references to intersubjectivity, but the modern notions of objectivity and value freedom in the social scie ...

Monte Carlo tests with nuisance parameters:
... In the two next sections, we discuss simplified (asymptotically justified) approximate versions of the proposed procedures, which involve the use of consistent set or point estimates of model parameters. In Section 5, we suggest a method [the consistent set estimate MMC method (CSEMMC)] which is app ...

Chapter 7 Random Variables
... If knowing whether any event involving X alone has occurred tells us nothing about the occurrence of any event involving Y alone, and vice versa, then X and Y are independent random variables. Probability models often assume independence when the random variables describe outcomes that appear unrela ...
