  • Recently, Carlsson, Full\acute{e}$r and Majlender [1] presented the concept of possibilitic correlation representing an average degree of interaction between marginal distribution of a joint possibility distribution as compared to their respective dispersions. They also formulated the weak and strong forms of the possibilistic Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. In this paper, we define a new probability measure. Then the weak and strong forms of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality are immediate consequence of probabilistic Cauchy-Schwarz inequality with respect to the new probability measure.

  • An unified measure of user interface efficiency and aesthetics for cyber museum is proposed. First, general structure of cyber museum is discussed and hierarchical analyses are done for sample sites. Usability tests based on the hierarchical analyses yield statistics of user access frequency and persistency for each page, on which access probability is deduced. Second, visual occupancy, a measure of efficiency of user interface element based on access probability is defined. The hierarchical statistics of visual occupancy can be an index for characterization and classification of cyber museums. Examples are provided.

  • Combination of AHP priorities is essential in combining opinions of multiple experts. There are two ways to get combined priorities: one is to combine the pairwise matrices and obtain the priority from it and another is to combine the individual priorities. In this paper, we use a Dirichlet probability model to combine the priorities from multiple experts. The resulting combined priority is an expected value of the model, which is a function of some measure of the homogeneity and credibility of the group of experts. We give some interpretations of this measure and illustrate them by numerical example.

  • In this paper, we develop the Bayesian model selection procedure using the reference prior for comparing two nested model such as the independent and intraclass models using the distance or divergence between the two as the basis of comparison. A suitable criterion for this is the power divergence measure as introduced by Cressie and Read(1984). Such a measure includes the Kullback -Liebler divergence measures and the Hellinger divergence measure as special cases. For this problem, the power divergence measure turns out to be a function solely of $\rho$, the intraclass correlation coefficient. Also, this function is convex, and the minimum is attained at $\rho=0$. We use reference prior for $\rho$. Due to the duality between hypothesis tests and set estimation, the hypothesis testing problem can also be solved by solving a corresponding set estimation problem. The present paper develops Bayesian method based on the Kullback-Liebler and Hellinger divergence measures, rejecting $H_0:\rho=0$ when the specified divergence measure exceeds some number d. This number d is so chosen that the resulting credible interval for the divergence measure has specified coverage probability $1-{\alpha}$. The length of such an interval is compared with the equal two-tailed credible interval and the HPD credible interval for $\rho$ with the same coverage probability which can also be inverted into acceptance regions of $H_0:\rho=0$. Example is considered where the HPD interval based on the one-at- a-time reference prior turns out to be the shortest credible interval having the same coverage probability.

  • Packing dimension of a set is an upper bound for the packing dimensions of measures on the set. Recently the packing dimension of statistically self-similar Cantor set, which has uniform distributions for contraction ratios, was shown to be its Hausdorff dimension. We study the method to find an upper bound of packing dimensions and the upper Renyi dimensions of measures on a statistically quasi-self-similar Cantor set (its packing dimension is still unknown) which has non-uniform distributions of contraction ratios. As results, in some statistically quasi-self-similar Cantor set we show that every probability measure on it has its subset of full measure whose packing dimension is also its Hausdorff dimension almost surely and it has its subset of full measure whose packing dimension is also its Hausdorff dimension almost surely for almost all probability measure on it.

Generalized Measure of Departure From Global Symmetry for Square Contingency Tables with Ordered Categories

  • For square contingency tables with ordered categories, Tomizawa (1995) considered two kinds of measures to represent the degree of departure from global symmetry, which means that the probability that an observation will fall in one of cells in the upper-right triangle of square table is equal to the probability that the observation falls in one of cells in the lower-left triangle of it. This paper proposes a generalization of those measures. The proposed measure is expressed by using Cressie and Read's (1984) power divergence or Patil and Taillie's (1982) diversity index. Special cases of the proposed measure include TomiBawa's measures. The proposed measure would be useful for comparing the degree of departure from global symmetry in several tables.

  • The simulation is used to estimate an overflow probability in a stable parallel network with coupled inputs. Since the general simulation needs extremely many trials to obtain such a small probability, the fast simulation is proposed to reduce trials instead. By using the Cramer’s theorem, we first obtain an optimally changed measure under which the variance of the estimator is minimized. Then, we use it to derive an importance sampling estimator of the overflow probability which enables us to perform the fast simulation.

  • In this paper, we propose a new measure based on the confidence of Bayesian posterior probability so as to reduce unimportant information in the clustering process. Because the performance of clustering is up to selecting the important degree of attributes within the databases, the concept of information entropy is added to posterior probability for attributes discernibility. Hence, The same value of attributes in the confidence of the proposed measure is considerably much less due to the natural logarithm. Therefore posterior probability-based clustering algorithm selects the minimum of attribute reducts and improves the efficiency of clustering. Analysis of the validation of the proposed algorithms compared with others shows their discernibility as well as ability of clustering to handle uncertainty with ACME categorical data.

  • In this paper, we prove that an affine manifold M is finitely covered by a manifold $\overline{M}$ where $\overline{M}$ is radiant or the tangent bundle of $\overline{M}$ has a conformally flat vector subbundle of the projective holonomy group of M admits an invariant probability Borel measure. This implies that$x^M$is zero.

  • Today, big data has become a hot keyword in that big data may be defined as collection of data sets so huge and complex that it becomes difficult to process by traditional methods. Clustering method is to identify the information in a big database by assigning a set of objects into the clusters so that the objects in the same cluster are more similar to each other clusters. The similarity measures being used in the cluster analysis may be classified into various types depending on the nature of the data. In this paper, we computed upper and lower limits for probability interestingness measure based similarity measures without marginal probability such as Yule I and II, Michael, Digby, Baulieu, and Dispersion measure. And we compared these measures by real data and simulated experiment. By Warrens (2008), Coefficients with the same quantities in the numerator and denominator, that are bounded, and are close to each other in the ordering, are likely to be more similar. Thus, results on bounds provide means of classifying various measures. Also, knowing which coefficients are similar provides insight into the stability of a given algorithm.
