A method to replace a continuous univariate distribution with a discrete distribution that takes MN different values is analysed. Both distributions share the same rth moments for r = 0,..., 2N - 1 ...

Testing of hypotheses for discrete distributions is considered in this paper. The goal is to develop conditional frequentist tests that allow the reporting of data ...

where \(\mathsf{G}(\cdot)\) is some convex operator and \(\mathcal{F}\) is as set of feasible input distributions. Examples of such an optimization problem include finding capacity in information ...

Blast furnaces play a pivotal role in modern metallurgy, where the uniform distribution of burden (the mix of coke, pellets, sinter and other raw materials) directly influences the efficiency and ...
