Some new results for Dirichlet priors (2000)
Cifarelli, Donato Michele, Melilli, Eugenio
Let p be a random probability measure chosen by a Dirichlet process whose parameter a is a finite measure with support contained in $[0, +\infty)$ and suppose that $V = \int x^2p(dx)-[\int xp(dx)]^2$...
De Finetti's contribution to probability and statistics (1996)
Cifarelli, Donato Michele, Regazzini, Eugenio
This paper summarizes the scientific activity of de Finetti in probability and statistics. It falls into three sections: Section 1 includes an essential biography of de Finetti and a survey of the...
On the asymptotic distribution of a general measure of monotone dependence (1996)
Cifarelli, Donato Michele, Conti, Pier Luigi, Regazzini, Eugenio
In this paper the asymptotic normality of a class of statistics, including Gini's index of cograduation and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, is proved. The asymptotic normality is stated...
