The size of an organism at any point during ontogeny often has fitness consequences through either direct selection on size or through selection on size-related morphological, performance, or life ...
The covariance between counting process martingales is used to characterize the dependence between two failure time variates. A representation of the bivariate survivor function is obtained in terms ...
Variograms and covariance functions are key tools in geostatistics. However, various properties, characterizations, and decomposition theorems have been established for covariance functions only. We ...
