Estimation of population-level summaries in general semiparametric repeated measures regression models

Collections, p. 123–137.

By: A. Maity*, T. Apanasovich & R. Carroll

TL;DR: This paper considers a wide family of semiparametric repeated measures regression models, in which the main interest is on estimating population-level quantities such as mean, variance, probabilities etc, and derives plug-in kernel-based estimators of the population level quantities and derive their asymptotic distribution.

On adaptive linear regression

Journal of Applied Statistics, 35(12), 1409–1422.

By: A. Maity* & M. Sherman*

Contributors: A. Maity* & M. Sherman*

author keywords: adaptive regression; heavy-tailed error; least absolute deviation regression; mean squared error; ordinary least-squares regression
TL;DR: This paper proposes an easy to compute adaptive estimator which is simply a linear combination of OLS and LAD and demonstrates large sample normality of the estimator and shows that its performance is close to best for both light-tailed and heavy-tailed error distributions.

Fusing spatial resource heterogeneity with a competition-colonization trade-off in model communities

THEORETICAL ECOLOGY, 1(2), 65–75.

By: K. Gross n

author keywords: Biodiversity; Dispersal; Resource competition; Spatial dynamics
TL;DR: A model that fuses spatial heterogeneity in competitive abilities caused by variation in resources and a competition–colonization trade-off is presented and analyzed and shows how resource supply can control the competitive balance between species that are weak competitors but superior colonizers and strong competitors/inferior colonizers.

Altricial Development in Subsocial Wood-Feeding Cockroaches

ZOOLOGICAL SCIENCE, 25(12), 1190–1198.

author keywords: ontogenetic color change; precocial; parental care; Dictyoptera; trophallaxis
MeSH headings : Animals; Body Size / physiology; Cockroaches / anatomy & histology; Cockroaches / classification; Cockroaches / physiology; Eye / anatomy & histology; Female; Hierarchy, Social; Male; Phylogeny; Social Behavior; Species Specificity
TL;DR: It is found that eye development and cuticular pigmentation at hatching are correlated with social structure and decreased investment in both integumentary and ocular development in subsocial cockroaches parallels that seen in altricial vertebrates. (via Semantic Scholar)
