A weighted random item sampler (selector), where the probability of selecting an item is proportional to its weight, and every item is sampled exactly once (without repetition or replacement). The ...

This paper introduces a new distribution based on the exponential distribution, known as Size-biased Double Weighted Exponential Distribution (SDWED). Some characteristics of the new distribution are ...

A new class of distributions over (0,1) is obtained by considering geometrically weighted sum of independent identically distributed (i.i.d.) Bernoulli random variables. An expression for the ...

Abstract: Maintaining a synopsis structure dynamically from data stream is vital for a variety of streaming data applications, such as approximate query or data mining. In many cases, the significance ...
