New approximations are given for the distribution of the length of the ith (iΒΏ1) smallest intervals containing r points, when N observations are randomly distributed on the unit interval, with primary emphasis on the case where N is a random variable.

Scan statistics have been extensively used in many areas of science to analyze the occurrence of observed clusters of events in time or space. Since the scan statistics are based on the highly dependent consecutive subsequences of observed data, accurate probability inequalities for their distributi
Discrete scan statistics are used for testing the null hypothesis that the observations are identically distributed against a clustering alternative that speciΓΏes an increased incidence of observations in a connected subregion of the circle. To implement the testing procedures based on the scan stat
## Abstract We have developed a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) association scan statistic that takes into account the complex distribution of the human genome variation in the identification of chromosomal regions with significant SNP associations. This scan statistic has wide applicability f
