Partition structure and the A-hypergeometric distribution associated with the rational normal curve

Shuhei Mano

A distribution whose normalization constant is an A-hypergeometric polynomial is called an A-hypergeometric distribution. Such a distribution is in turn a generalization of the gen…

The forecasting of menstruation based on a state-space modeling of basal body temperature time series

Keiichi Fukaya, Ai Kawamori, Yutaka Osada +2

Women's basal body temperature (BBT) follows a periodic pattern that is associated with the events in their menstrual cycle. Although daily BBT time series contain potentially usef…

Convergence guarantees for kernel-based quadrature rules in misspecified settings

Motonobu Kanagawa, Bharath K. Sriperumbudur, Kenji Fukumizu

Kernel-based quadrature rules are becoming important in machine learning and statistics, as they achieve super- convergence rates in numerical integration, and thus provi…
