Un método Bayesiano para la evaluación de la probabilidad de ocurrencia de sismos. Pseudo-aceleraciones del terreno en el subbloque ibero-costero pirenaico. Determinación de las acciones sísmicas de diseño.

A modified version of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test is presented as a tool to assess whether a specified, although arbitrary, probability model is unsuitable to describe the underlying distribution of a set of observations. ...

Principal balances are defined as a sequence of orthonormal balances which maximize successively the explained variance in a data set. Apparently, computing principal balances requires an exhaustive search along all possible ...

A residual type a posteriori error estimator for finite elements is analyzed using a new technique. In this case, the error estimate is the result of two consecutive projections of the exact error on two finite-dimensional ...

The purpose of this contribution is to evaluate whether there is enough statistical basis to establish a relationship between the popularity of certain terms in the Google, Inc. browser and the evolution of several worldwide ...

Measurements in sequencing studies are mostly based on counts. There is a lack of theoretical developments for the analysis and modelling of this type of data. Some thoughts in this direction are presented, which might ...

Like the statistical analysis of compositional data in general, spatial analysis of compositional data requires specific tools. A historical overview of their development is presented in three steps: (a) the recognition ...

Modeling dependence between two or more variables is a common issue in statistical applications. The Pearson correlation coefficient is often used to measure dependence, although it

This paper studies the relative evaluation of young people and the possible benefits associated with three methods of avoiding sexually transmitted infections/AIDS and/or unwanted pregnancies (condoms, contraceptive pills, ...
