  • The main purpose of this paper is using estimates for character sums and analytic methods to study the mean value involving the incomplete character sums, 2-th power mean of the inversion of Dirichlet L-function and general Kloosterman sums, and give four interesting asymptotic formulae for it.

  • Let {$V_{nk},\;k\;{\geq}\;1,\;{\geq}\;1$} be an array of rowwise independent random elements which are stochastically dominated by a random variable X with $E\|X\|^{\frac{\alpha}{\gamma}+{\theta}}log^{\rho}(\|X\|)\;<\;{\infty}$ for some ${\rho}\;>\;0,\;{\alpha}\;>\;0,\;{\gamma}\;>\;0,\;{\theta}\;>\;0$ such that ${\theta}+{\alpha}/{\gamma}<2$. Let {$a_{nk},k{\geq}1,n{\geq}1$) be an array of suitable constants. A complete convergence result is obtained for the weighted sums of the form $\sum{^\infty_k_=_1}\;a_{nk}V_{nk}$.

  • Hidden nodes have a key role in the information processing of feed-forward neural networks in which inputs are processed through a series of weighted sums and nonlinear activation functions. In order to understand the role of hidden nodes, we must analyze the effect of the nonlinear activation functions on the weighted sums to hidden nodes. In this paper, we focus on the effect of nonlinear functions in a viewpoint of information theory. Under the assumption that the nonlinear activation function can be approximated piece-wise linearly, we prove that the entropy of weighted sums to hidden nodes decreases after piece-wise linear functions. Therefore, we argue that the nonlinear activation function decreases the uncertainty among hidden nodes. Furthermore, the more the hidden nodes are saturated, the more the entropy of hidden nodes decreases. Based on this result, we can say that, after successful training of feed-forward neural networks, hidden nodes tend not to be in linear regions but to be in saturated regions of activation function with the effect of uncertainty reduction.

  • Let {$X_n,n{\geq}1$} be a sequence of negatively superadditive dependent random variables. In the paper, we study the strong law of large numbers for general weighted sums ${\frac{1}{g(n)}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}}{\frac{X_i}{h(i)}}$ of negatively superadditive dependent random variables with non-identical distribution. Some sufficient conditions for the strong law of large numbers are provided. As applications, the Kolmogorov strong law of large numbers and Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong law of large numbers for negatively superadditive dependent random variables are obtained. Our results generalize the corresponding ones for independent random variables and negatively associated random variables.

  • In this paper we establish the weak law of large numbers for randomly weighted partial sums of random variables and study conditions imposed on the triangular array of random weights {$W_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\leq}j{\leq}n,{\;}n{\geq}1$} and on the triangular array of random variables {$X_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\leq}j{\leq}n,{\;}{\geq}1$} which ensure that $\sum_{j=1}^{n}{\;}W_{nj}{\mid}X_{nj}{\;}-{\;}B_{nj}{\mid}$ converges In probability to 0, where {$B_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\;}{\leq}{\;}j{\;}{\leq}{\;}n,{\;}n{\;}{\geq}{\;}1$} is a centering array of constants or random variables.

  • Some properties for negatively orthant dependent sequence are discussed. Some strong limit results for the weighted sums are obtained, which generalize the corresponding results for independent sequence and negatively associated sequence. At last, exponential inequalities for negatively orthant dependent sequence are presented.

  • Let ${X_n,n \geq 1}$ be a sequence of stochatically dominated pairwise independent random variables. Let ${a_n, n \geq 1}$ and ${b_n, n \geq 1}$ be seqence of constants such that $a_n \neq 0$ and $0 < b_n \uparrow \infty$. A strong law large numbers of the form $\sum^{n}_{j=1}{a_j X_i//b_n \to 0$ almost surely is obtained.

As its applications eight corollaries for complete convergence of weighted sums for arrays of rowwise extended negatively dependent random variables are given, which extend the corresponding known results for independent case.
