Introduces symmetry-aware convex shrinkage for high-dimensional covariance estimation by selecting a symmetry group via held-out negative log-likelihood and proving regret bounds plus dominance over Ledoit-Wolf under a match condition.
The PMNLV model extends single-neuron overdispersion to populations via matrix-normal gain priors, showing shared co-variability highest in V1 and declining along the mouse visual hierarchy.
Exposure-integrated Gaussian processes allow prediction of both latent stellar signals and instrument-specific binned versions, supporting combination of overlapping EPRV datasets with varying exposure times.
Derives augmented IPW estimators for occupation probabilities in coarsened multistate processes under coarsening at random, allowing time-varying confounders.
A landmarking approach using latent class mixed models for dynamic prediction of time-to-event data that accounts for latent heterogeneity in longitudinal biomarker trajectories.
WRaPs extends optimally weighted random effect estimators to joint models, providing closed-form solutions for basic cases and MCMC computation for complex ones to predict extreme random effects while accounting for survival data.
A deep learning method amortizes probabilistic XCO2 retrieval from OCO-2 spectra via Laplace approximations and normalizing flows, trained on simulations with model errors to achieve faster inference and better-calibrated uncertainties than operational solvers.
DAG analysis shows univariate screening before multivariate modeling reduces inclusion of non-causal features in molecular signatures of lifestyle exposures.
A finite-element variational inference method delivers full-covariance Bayesian field reconstruction at dimensions exceeding 400,000 for 3D porous media flow using sparse precision parameterization from SPDE priors.
Proposes an inferential framework to test differences in categorical Gini correlations for predictor importance in classification, establishing asymptotic normality and consistency while accommodating unequal dimensions and dependence.
Nonparametric Bayesian methods with Gaussian and Besov-Laplace priors achieve minimax-optimal posterior contraction rates for covariate-driven point process intensity estimation under increasing domain asymptotics with ergodic covariates.
A Bayesian model for multi-feature contact matrices that uses tensor structures and contingency table theory to satisfy structural constraints and impute missing contact features, validated on simulations and US/German survey data.
SVBR is a new hierarchical Bayesian method that treats buffer radii as unknown spatially varying parameters, improves parameter recovery in simulations, and reveals spatial heterogeneity in healthcare access effects on antenatal care in Madagascar.
A hybrid INLA-RF framework integrates Bayesian spatio-temporal modeling with random forests through two iterative algorithms to improve predictions and uncertainty quantification for environmental data.
Develops a restricted MCAR model via reparameterization to measure and control informativeness in multivariate spatial modeling of health events across subgroups.
Mathematical analysis shows sparse linear regression mitigates output dimension collapse in brain-to-image reconstruction at small data scales by exploiting sparsity in the brain-to-feature mapping.
Review and simulation comparison of more than 40 threshold selection procedures for univariate extreme value analysis, with application to daily rainfall data.
Develops SICS and RCRS screening methods for consistent selection of sparse active predictors and change points in high-dimensional structural break predictive regressions that may involve stationary or cointegrated series.
A multimodal GNN ablation for Nordic precipitation nowcasting shows sparse point observations improve station and onset scores while NWP and CRPS losses improve radar-grid performance, indicating local and field skills are distinct targets.
Proves reverse Poincaré inequality on global attractor of 2D reaction-diffusion system to obtain near-parametric statistical recovery of initial conditions from discrete observations.
Football fever in spectators follows a V-shaped time course captured as a latent process from heart rate and stress data via time-dependent structural equation modeling.
