Testing quasi-independence for truncation data
Quasi-independence is a common assumption for analyzing truncated data. To verify this condition, we consider a class of weighted log-rank type statistics that include existing te...

From the entropy to the statistical structure of spike trains
— We use statistical estimates of the entropy rate of spike train data in order to make inferences about the underlying structure of the spike train itself. We first examine a n...
