Abstract: Bound expressions of the entropy of multinomial distributions are studied. Practical random processes are often characterized by multinomial distributions, but it seems difficult to derive a ...

A two-stage procedure is proposed for the generation of random variates from a multinomial distribution. In the first stage we propose that cell frequencies be generated as random deviates from a ...

This R package provides reusable tools for working with multinomial distributions, including probability mass calculations, expected value, and covariance matrix. It was developed as part of a ...

ABSTRACT: This contribution deals with a generative approach for the analysis of textual data. Instead of creating heuristic rules forthe representation of documents and word counts, we employ a ...

Path-dependent stochastic processes are often non-ergodic and observables can no longer be computed within the ensemble picture. The resulting mathematical difficulties pose severe limits to the ...
