TLDR
In this paper, the convergence of distributions is considered in the context of conditional probability, i.e., random variables and expected values, and the probability of a given distribution converging to a certain value.

Approximate non-interference

TL;DR: A model in which the notion of non-interference is approximated in the sense that it allows for some exactly quantified leakage of information, characterised via a notion of process similarity which replaces the indistinguishability of processes by a quantitative measure of their behavioural difference.

Probabilistic Bounds on the Coefficients of Polynomials with Only Real Zeros

TL;DR: Alignments and approximations for finite sequences, called Polya frequency sequences, which follow from their probabilistic representation are reviewed, finding a number of improvements of known estimates.

Effective Strong Dimension in Algorithmic Information and Computational Complexity

TL;DR: In this article, Lutz et al. showed that packing dimension can also be characterized in terms of gales, which are betting strategies that generalize martingales, and showed that the effective strong dimension of a set or sequence is at least as great as its effective dimension, with equality for sets or sequences that are sufficiently regular.

Estimating Functionals Related to a Density by a Class of Statistics Based on Spacings

TL;DR: In this article, a class of statistics based on spacings of increasing order is studied and it is shown that these statistics are almost surely consistent and that the entropy estimator is efficient under certain conditions on the unknown density.

Psychometric latent response models

TL;DR: In this paper, some psychometric models belong to the larger class of latent response models (LRMs), and examples of how they can be applied, and a method for obtaining maximum likelihood and some maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimates of the parameters of LRMs is presented.
