Tuning parameter selection for penalised empirical likelihood with a diverging number of parameters
JOURNAL OF NONPARAMETRIC STATISTICS, 32(1), 246–261.
author keywords: Tuning parameter selection; variable selection; generalised information criterion; empirical likelihood
TL;DR:
A generalised information criterion (GIC) for the penalised empirical likelihood in the linear regression case is proposed and it is shown that the tuning parameter selected by the GIC yields the true model consistently even when the number of predictors diverges to infinity with the sample size.

Probabilistic Detection and Estimation of Conic Sections From Noisy Data
JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL AND GRAPHICAL STATISTICS, 29(3), 513–522.
author keywords: Bayesian hierarchical model; Bernstein basis polynomials; Focus-directrix approach; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Metropolis-Hastings algorithm; Partial conics
TL;DR:
A general purpose Bayesian hierarchical model is proposed for conic sections and corresponding estimation method based on noisy data is shown to work even when the specific nature of the conic section is unknown, providing probabilistic detection of the underlying conicsection and inference about the associated parameters.

A Functional Metric Approach to Assess Biosimilarity With Application to Rheumatoid Arthritis Trials
STATISTICS IN BIOPHARMACEUTICAL RESEARCH, 12(2), 234–243.
author keywords: Bernstein polynomials; Binary responses; Rheumatic arthritis; Semiparametric models
TL;DR:
A functional distance based methodology that takes into consideration the entire time course of the study and is based on a class of flexible semiparametric models is proposed, which shows that the proposed approach is more sensitive than the classical equivalence tests approach.

Growth performance, oxidative stress and immune status of newly weaned pigs fed peroxidized lipids with or without supplemental vitamin E or polyphenols
JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 11(1).
author keywords: Antioxidants; Immune status; Lipid peroxidation; Oxidative stress; Piglets; Polyphenols; Vitamin E
