Confounder Selection via Penalized Credible Regions

BIOMETRICS, 70(4), 852–861.

By: A. Wilson  n & B. Reich n 

author keywords: Adjustment uncertainty; Confounder selection; Consistency; Credible region; Variable selection
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Bayes Theorem; Birth Weight; Computer Simulation; Confounding Factors, Epidemiologic; Environmental Exposure / statistics & numerical data; Female; Humans; Models, Statistical; North Carolina / epidemiology; Particulate Matter / analysis; Pregnancy; Prenatal Exposure Delayed Effects / epidemiology; Prevalence; Risk Assessment / methods
TL;DR: This work proposes a decision‐theoretic approach to confounder selection and effect estimation, which first estimates the full standard Bayesian regression model and then post‐process the posterior distribution with a loss function that penalizes models omitting important confounders.

A spatial capture-recapture model for territorial species

Environmetrics, 25(8), 630–637.

By: B. Reich n  & B. Gardner n

TL;DR: A new statistical model is proposed, which allows for dependence between locations to account for avoidance or territorial behavior and it is shown via a simulation study that accounting for this can improve population size estimates. (via Semantic Scholar)

A Spectral Method for Spatial Downscaling

BIOMETRICS, 70(4), 932–942.

By: B. Reich n , H. Chang * & K. Foley *

author keywords: Computer model output; Data fusion; Kriging; Multiscale analysis
