In the present chapter, we present a review of results pertaining to the distribution of waiting
times for the occurrence (s) of scans of type 2∕ r in sequences of binary trials. Our review …

The concept of pattern arises in many applications comprising experimental trials with two or
more possible outcomes in each trial. A binary scan of type r/k is a special pattern referring …

The contribution of the theory of scan statistics to the study of many real-life applications has
been rapidly expanding during the last decades. The multiple scan statistic, defined on a …
