A Bayesian Approach to the Vertical Structure of the Disk of the Milky Way

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2020
This work investigates the vertical profile of the stars in the disk of the Milky Way. The models investigated are of the form sech2/n(nz/(2H)) where, setting α = 2/n, the three functions of the sequence α= 0, 1, 2 correspond to exponential, sech, and ...

Obesity Subtypes and Longitudinal Trajectories of Function Over Seven Years of Follow‐Up: Data From the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, is a risk factor for functional limitations in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, function varies among such individuals. Our objective was to evaluate the implications of obesity subtypes on longitudinal patterns of physical functioning in people with or at risk for knee OA ...

Bayesian Model Selection for Harmonic Labelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present a simple model based on Dirichlet distributions for pitch-class proportions within chords, motivated by the task of generating ‘lead sheets’ (sequences of chord labels) from symbolic musical data. Using this chord model, we demonstrate the use

Statistical inference for nonignorable missing-data problems: a selective review

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2018
Nonignorable missing data are frequently encountered in various settings, such as economics, sociology and biomedicine. We review statistical inference for nonignorable missing-data problems, including estimation, influence analysis and model selection ...

Longitudinal Changes in Adiposity after a Youth Sport‐Related Knee Injury: Informing Post‐Traumatic Osteoarthritis Prevention

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Youth who experience a sport‐related knee injury have elevated odds of overweight or obesity in 3‐10 years, compounding their risk for post‐traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). To inform prevention strategies, this study compared patterns of adiposity change between youth with a sport‐related knee injury and uninjured youth in the 2‐year period ...

Applications of Bayesian model selection to cosmological parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Bayesian model selection is a tool for deciding whether the introduction of a new parameter is warranted by the data. I argue that the usual sampling statistic significance tests for a null hypothesis can be misleading, since they do not take into ...

Minimum uncertainty as Bayesian network model selection principle

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics
Background Bayesian Network (BN) modeling is a prominent methodology in computational systems biology. However, the incommensurability of datasets frequently encountered in life science domains gives rise to contextual dependence and numerical ...

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...
