This paper contains a collection of results on Latin hypercube sampling. The first result is a
Berry-Esseen-type bound for the multivariate central limit theorem of the sample mean $\hat{\…

The aim of this paper is to extend Stein's method to a compound Poisson distribution setting.
The compound Poisson distributions of concern here are those of the form POIS$(\nu)$, …

Genipin has been widely used as a natural crosslinker to substitute chemical crosslinkers
such as glutaraldehyde to crosslink various biomaterials like gelatin, collagen, and chitosan. …

This project compared the difference in color matching between human-eye assessment

Gaussian random fields are commonly used as models for spatial processes and maximum
likelihood is a preferred method of choice for estimating the covariance parameters. …

Stein [Statist. Sci. 4 (1989) 432–433] proposed the Matérn-type Gaussian random fields as a
very flexible class of models for computer experiments. This article considers a subclass of …

Recently, in a series of articles, Owen proposed the use of scrambled (tms) nets and (ts)
sequences in high-dimensional numerical integration. These scrambled nets and sequences …

This paper looks into the effect of the pressure on the transition from stratified to slug gas-liquid
flow in a horizontal pipeline. A systematic campaign of experiments was carried out at …

Background There has been an increase of mid-career professionals joining nursing. These
