2017 journal article

Climate change impacts on projections of excess mortality at 2030 using spatially varying ozone-temperature risk surfaces

JOURNAL OF EXPOSURE SCIENCE AND ENVIRONMENTAL EPIDEMIOLOGY, 27(1), 118–124.

author keywords: climate change; mortality; ozone; ozone-temperature interaction
MeSH headings : Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Air Pollutants / adverse effects; Air Pollutants / analysis; Air Pollution / adverse effects; Air Pollution / analysis; Animals; Cities; Climate Change / mortality; Databases, Factual; Female; Humans; Male; Models, Theoretical; Ozone / adverse effects; Ozone / analysis; Risk Assessment; United States / epidemiology; Urban Population
TL;DR: This work estimates non-linear, spatially varying, ozone–temperature risk surfaces for 94 US urban areas using observed data and simulates air quality from climate projections varying only biogenic emissions and holding anthropogenic emissions constant, thus attributing changes in ozone only to changes in climate and independent of changes in air pollutant emissions.

2017 journal article

An evolutionary spectrum approach to incorporate large-scale geographical descriptors on global processes

JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL STATISTICAL SOCIETY SERIES C-APPLIED STATISTICS, 66(2), 329–344.

author keywords: Axial symmetry; Climate output compression; Evolutionary spectrum; Global space-time model; Land-ocean non-stationarity
TL;DR: An evolutionary spectrum approach is proposed that can account for different regimes across the Earth's geography and results in a more general and flexible class of models that vastly outperforms axially symmetric models and captures longitudinal patterns that would otherwise be assumed constant.

2017 journal article

Faster exact distributions of pattern statistics through sequential elimination of states

ANNALS OF THE INSTITUTE OF STATISTICAL MATHEMATICS, 69(1), 231–248.

author keywords: Active proper suffix; Auxiliary Markov chain; Computational efficiency; Extended seed patterns; Minimal deterministic finite automaton; Overlapping pattern occurrences; Seeded alignments; Spaced seed coverage
TL;DR: This work develops a method to obtain a small set of states during the state generation process without forming a DFA, and shows that a huge reduction in the size of the AMC can be attained. (via Semantic Scholar)

A numerical scheme for the early steps of nucleation-aggregation models

JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICAL BIOLOGY, 74(1-2), 259–287.

author keywords: Polymerization; Aggregation-fragmentation models; Finite volume schemes; Adaptive grid
MeSH headings : Computer Simulation; Kinetics; Models, Chemical; Polymers / chemistry
TL;DR: This article proposes a conservative scheme, based on finite volume methods on an adaptive grid, which is capable of simulating well the early steps of the reaction as well as the later chain reactions. (via Semantic Scholar)

A New Statistical Approach to Characterize Chemical-Elicited Behavioral Effects in High-Throughput Studies Using Zebrafish

PLOS ONE, 12(1).

MeSH headings : Animals; Biometry / methods; High-Throughput Screening Assays / methods; Models, Statistical; Zebrafish
TL;DR: A novel, robust statistical approach to characterize chemical-elicited effects in behavioral data from high-throughput screening of all 1,060 Toxicity Forecaster chemicals across 5 concentrations at 120 hours post-fertilization (hpf) achieves a significant reduction in coefficient of variation compared to many traditional statistical modeling methods.

FDR control of detected regions by multiscale matched filtering

COMMUNICATIONS IN STATISTICS-SIMULATION AND COMPUTATION, 46(1), 127–144.

author keywords: FDR control; Matched filtering; Multiscale bandwidth; Kernel regression; Region detection
TL;DR: Simulations show that the proposed technique is a multiscale kernel regression in conjunction with statistical multiple testing for region detection while controlling the false discovery rate (FDR) and maximizing the signal-to-noise ratio via matched filtering. (via Semantic Scholar)

A note on modeling sparse exponential-family functional response curves

COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS & DATA ANALYSIS, 105, 46–52.

author keywords: Binomial data; Functional principal components; Longitudinal data; Mixed models; Smoothing; Sparse sampling design
TL;DR: Non-Gaussian functional data are considered and modeling through functional principal components analysis (FPCA) is discussed, and methods to address this shortcoming by using either a two-stage or joint estimation strategy are proposed. (via Semantic Scholar)
