Update: thanks to Yihong Wu for pointing out a typo in the statement of the result, which then took me months to get around to fixing. I came across this paper in the Annals of Probability: Mean absolute deviations of sample means and minimally concentrated binomials Lutz Mattner It contains the following cute lemma, which...

In my STAT 210A class, we frequently have to deal with the minimum of asequence of independent, identically distributed (IID) random variables. Thishappens b...

I have already discussed the concept of the quantile absolute deviation in several previous posts. In this post, we derive the equation for the relative statistical efficiency of the quantile absolute deviation against the standard deviation under the norma...

Someof the most fundamental functions in R, in my opinion, are those that deal with probability distributions. Whenever you compute a P-value you relyon a probability distribution, and there are many types out there. In this exercise I will cover four: Bernoulli, Binomial, Poisson, and Normal distributions. Let me begin with some theory first: Bernoulli...
