Spatial Bayesian Nonparametric Methods

NONPARAMETRIC BAYESIAN INFERENCE IN BIOSTATISTICS, pp. 347–357.

By: B. Reich n & M. Fuentes n

TL;DR: This work starts by considering nonparametric priors for covariance functions in a Gaussian process model, and goes fully non-parametric and discusses Dirichlet process mixtures for the coefficients in a kernel convolution, Dirichlets of Gaussian processes and spatial stick-breaking priors.

Exploring Tradeoffs in Demand- Side and Supply- Side Management of Urban Water Resources Using Agent- Based Modeling and Evolutionary Computation

SYSTEMS, 3(4), 287–308.

By: L. Kanta* & E. Berglund n

author keywords: agent-based modeling; complex adaptive systems analysis; multi-objective optimization; urban water resources management; sustainability
TL;DR: A Complex Adaptive Systems framework is developed to simulate consumer agents that change their consumption to affect the withdrawal from the water supply system, which, in turn influences operational policies and long-term resource planning and results demonstrate that pumping costs associated with maximizing environmental reliability exceed pumping Costs associated with minimizing restrictions on consumer water use.

Urbanization Increases Pathogen Pressure on Feral and Managed Honey Bees

PLOS ONE, 10(11).

By: E. Youngsteadt n, R. Appler n, M. Lopez-Uribe n, D. Tarpy n & S. Frank n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bacteremia / microbiology; Bacteremia / mortality; Bees / microbiology; Bees / parasitology; Bees / physiology; Bees / virology; Biomarkers / analysis; Immune System / immunology; Immune System / metabolism; Immune System / pathology; Parasitemia / mortality; Parasitemia / parasitology; Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction; Survival Rate; Urbanization; Virus Diseases / mortality; Virus Diseases / virology
TL;DR: It is found that pathogen pressure on honey bees increased with urbanization and management, and the probability of worker survival declined 3-fold along the authors' urbanization gradient, suggesting that urban areas may favor problematic diseases of pollinators. (via Semantic Scholar)

Quantifying the Effects of Wheat Residue on Severity of Stagonospora nodorum Blotch and Yield in Winter Wheat

Phytopathology, 105(11), 1417–1426.

By: L. Mehra n, C. Cowger n, R. Weisz n & P. Ojiambo n

MeSH headings : Ascomycota / physiology; Biomass; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Plant Diseases; Triticum / microbiology; Weather
TL;DR: It is shown that when wheat residue was sparse, small additions to residue density produced greater increases in SNB than when residue was abundant, suggesting that the economic threshold for the disease may be higher than previously assumed and warrants review. (via Semantic Scholar)

Malware Detection Using Nonparametric Bayesian Clustering and Classification Techniques

TECHNOMETRICS, 57(4), 535–546.

By: Y. Kao n, B. Reich n, C. Storlie* & B. Anderson*

author keywords: Classification; Clustering; Dirichlet process mixture; Dynamic trace
TL;DR: This article proposes a nonparametric Bayesian approach for classifying programs as benign or malicious and simultaneously clustering malicious programs and shows that the DPM model outperforms the elastic net logistic regression and the support vector machine (SVM) in classification performance under most of the scenarios, and also outper performs the spectral clustering method for grouping similar malware.
