Gaussianity tests have being widely studied in the literature. Regarding the study of Gaussianity tests for stationary processes, these only verify the Gaussianity of a marginal at a fixed finite order, generally order one. Therefore, they do not reject stationary non-Gaussian processes with the...

This paper addresses a linguistically motivated question of classification of functional data, namely the statistical classification of languages according to their rhythmic features. This is an important open problem in phonology. The analysis is based on the information provided by the...
