Increasing browse and social complexity can improve zoo elephant welfare

ZOO BIOLOGY, 40(1), 9–19.

By: M. Lasky n, J. Campbell n, J. Osborne n, E. Ivory*, J. Lasky n & C. Kendall n

author keywords: behavior; diet; ex situ; Loxodonta africana; management; social
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Husbandry / methods; Animal Welfare; Animals; Animals, Zoo / physiology; Appetitive Behavior; Behavior, Animal; Diet / veterinary; Elephants / physiology; Female; Male; Social Behavior
TL;DR: It is found that increasing browse can improve opportunities for foraging throughout the day but may not be sufficient to reduce repetitive behaviors, and increasing group size and integration of bulls with cows can lead to increased social interaction in African elephants.

Receiver operating characteristic curves and confidence bands for support vector machines

BIOMETRICS, 77(4), 1422–1430.

author keywords: classification; diagnostic medicine; machine learning; outcome weighted learning
MeSH headings : Breast Neoplasms / diagnosis; Computer Simulation; Female; Humans; Probability; ROC Curve; Support Vector Machine
TL;DR: A method for constructing confidence bands for the SVM ROC curve is proposed and the theoretical justification is provided by showing that the risk function of the estimated decision rule is uniformly consistent across the weight parameter. (via Semantic Scholar)

A Distributed and Integrated Method of Moments for High-Dimensional Correlated Data Analysis

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 116(534), 805–818.

author keywords: Composite likelihood; Divide-and-conquer; Generalized method of moments; Parallel computing; Scalable computing
TL;DR: A divide-and-conquer procedure implemented in a fully distributed and parallelized computational scheme for statistical estimation and inference of regression parameters is developed, and iron deficiency is significantly associated with two auditory recognition memory related potentials in the left parietal-occipital region of the brain.

Bayesian Test of Normality Versus a Dirichlet Process Mixture Alternative

SANKHYA-SERIES B-APPLIED AND INTERDISCIPLINARY STATISTICS, 83(1), 66–96.

author keywords: Bayes factor; embedding; goodness-of-fit; importance sampling; noninformative prior; predictive matching
TL;DR: Simulations indicate the proposed Bayesian test of normality for univariate or multivariate data against alternative nonparametric models characterized by Dirichlet process mixture distributions can detect non-normality without favoring the non parametric alternative when normality holds.

Statistical Inference for Online Decision Making: In a Contextual Bandit Setting

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION, 116(533), 240–255.

By: H. Chen n, W. Lu n & R. Song n

author keywords: Epsilon-greedy; Inverse propensity weighted estimator; Model misspecification; Online decision making; Statistical inference
TL;DR: Using the martingale central limit theorem, it is shown that the online ordinary least squares estimator of model parameters is asymptotically normal and the in-sample inverse propensity weighted value estimator is asylptotic normal. (via Semantic Scholar)

Sparse Single Index Models for Multivariate Responses

Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics, 30(1), 115–124.

author keywords: Alternating direction method of multipliers; High dimension; Multivariate response; Single index model; Sparsity
TL;DR: A sparse multivariate single index model is proposed, where responses and predictors are linked by unspecified smooth functions and multiple matrix level penalties are employed to select predictors and induce low-rank structures across responses. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: X. Jeng n, H. Peng n & W. Lu n

author keywords: Jayanta K; Ghosh; Large p small n; Penalized regression; Variable selection; Primary; Secondary
TL;DR: A new variable selection procedure is developed to control over-selection of the noise variables ranking after the last relevant variable, and, at the same time, retain a high proportion of relevant variables ranking before the first noise variable. (via Semantic Scholar)

Statistical Inference for High-Dimensional Models via Recursive Online-Score Estimation

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION, 116(535), 1307–1318.

By: C. Shi*, R. Song n, W. Lu n & R. Li*

author keywords: Confidence interval; Generalized linear models; Online estimation; Ultrahigh dimensions
TL;DR: A new estimation and valid inference method for single or low-dimensional regression coefficients in high-dimensional generalized linear models and it is proved the proposed CI is asymptotically narrower than the CIs constructed based on the desparsified Lasso estimator and the decorrelated score statistic.
