Is A Little Learning Dangerous?
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT I argue that a little learning is often dangerous even for ideal reasoners who are operating in extremely simple scenarios and know all the relevant facts about how the evidence is generated. More precisely, I show that, on many plausible ways of assigning value to a credence in a hypothesis H, ideal Bayesians should sometimes expect other ...

Nonparametric Survival Estimation With Contaminated and Adjudicated Events
Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the conditional expert Kaplan–Meier estimator, an extension of the classical Kaplan–Meier estimator designed for time‐to‐event data subject to both right‐censoring and contamination. Such contamination, where observed events may not reflect true outcomes, is common in applied settings, including insurance and credit risk, where expert

Towards a new toolbox of statistical primitives: Optimally estimating the mean of a distribution
AI Magazine, Volume 47, Issue 4, Winter 2026.Abstract Mean estimation is perhaps the most fundamental building block of statistics, yet the tools we use are surprisingly brittle. For example, the conventional method of using the sample mean can be made arbitrarily bad with a single extreme data point.

Entropy, 2020 The famous singlet correlations of a composite quantum system consisting of two two-level components in the singlet state exhibit notable features of two kinds. One kind are striking certainty relations: perfect anti-correlation, and perfect correlation,

Entanglement, Space–Time Coordinates, and Bell's Inequalities in Photon–Polarization Experiments
Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 9, September 2026.This work presents a revised analysis of Bell‐type inequalities. It is argued that standard derivations of Bell‐type inequalities implicitly rely on additional assumptions beyond those originally stated, specifically concerning the cardinalities of the sets of measurements and photon‐pair properties.

Power spectral density and the brain
Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Time series from M/EEG (magneto/electroencephalography) and ECoG (electrocorticography) recordings are common sources of information about brain function. The power spectral density (PSD) preserves much of this information, up to second order. In the current decade, a burst of brain diagnostics using the slope of log(PSD) has appeared.

Characterizing Higher‐Order Ross More Risk Aversion by Comparison of Risk Compensation
International Studies of Economics, Volume 21, Issue 3, Page 200-206, September 2026.ABSTRACT This paper characterizes higher‐order Ross more risk aversion by means of risk compensation rather than the traditional risk premium. Our approach extends the willingness‐to‐accept (WTA) framework of Denuit and Eeckhoudt (2013) to a broader class of risk changes.

Comment on ‘Single particle nonlocality with completely independent reference states’
New Journal of Physics, 2022 We comment on the purported violation of local realism, by a single photon induced correlations between homodyne detectors, which one can find in: (2008) New J. Phys. 10 113024 [arXiv: 0807.0109 ].

Extreme Rainfall Estimation Methods: A Review
Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 5, September/October 2026.The figure illustrates the topics we cover and their inter‐relationships. Extreme value models assign probabilities to rainfall depths, often using regionalisation. They may also allow variation with season, duration, climate epoch or the spatial extent of rainfall. The resulting storm depths can be assigned spatial and/or temporal profiles.

Quantum ReportsThis comment examines the mathematical framework developed by Bryan Sanctuary across a series of papers and preprints (2023–2025) concerning bivector and quaternion representations of spin and claims regarding Bell correlations.
