Leveraging Rank Information for Robust Regression Analysis: A Nomination Sampling Approach. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel methodology for robust regression analysis when traditional mean regression falls short due to the presence of outliers. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on simple random sampling (SRS), our methodology leverages median nomination sampling (MedNS) by utilizing readily available ranking information to ...

Nonclassical Measurement Error in Farmland Markets with Implications for Ricardian Analysis
Abstract Nonclassical measurement error threatens the validity of empirical economic models. We examine the extent to which land value measures that are commonly used in studies of the US farmland market are subject to nonclassical measurement error. We consider differences in county‐level land values from two popular data sources: (1) self‐reported ...

Alternative Approaches for Estimating Highest‐Density Regions
Summary Among the variety of statistical intervals, highest‐density regions (HDRs) stand out for their ability to effectively summarise a distribution or sample, unveiling its distinctive and salient features. An HDR represents the minimum size set that satisfies a certain probability coverage, and current methods for their computation require ...

Animals were sensitized with mBSA emulsified in CFA/IFA and subsequently received three intra‐articular injections of mBSA into either the TMJ or the knee (once per week). Mechanical hyperalgesia was assessed using electronic von Frey testing after arthritis establishment at 24 h or 7 days following the third intra‐articular injection.

Financial Time Series Uncertainty: A Review of Probabilistic AI Applications
ABSTRACT Probabilistic machine learning models offer a distinct advantage over traditional deterministic approaches by quantifying both epistemic uncertainty (stemming from limited data or model knowledge) and aleatoric uncertainty (due to inherent randomness in the data), along with full distributional forecasts.

Monitoring panels of sparse functional data
Panels of random functions are common in applications of functional data analysis. They often occur when sequences of functions are observed at a number of different locations. We propose a methodology to monitor for structural breaks in such panels and to identify the changing components with statistical certainty.

Forecasting Local Ionospheric Parameters Using Transformers
Abstract We present a novel method for forecasting key ionospheric parameters using transformer‐based neural networks. The model provides accurate forecasts and uncertainty quantification of the F2‐layer peak plasma frequency (foF2), the F2‐layer peak density height (hmF2), and total electron content for a given geographic location.

ABSTRACT This study examines academic dishonesty among university students, focusing on peer influence, detection risk, effort, and sanctions in proctored online and offline exams. Drawing on 259 survey responses collected from German universities after the COVID‐19‐driven transition to online formats, it applies a utility‐based framework, combined ...

ABSTRACT Compound events (CEs), commonly defined as the “combination of multiple drivers and/or hazards that contributes to societal or environmental risk”, often result in amplified impacts compared to individual hazards. In order to estimate the return period of bivariate CEs, a novel nonparametric approach employing bivariate Generalized Pareto ...

A nonparametric model-based estimator for the cumulative distribution function of a right censored variable in a finite population [PDF]
In survey analysis, the estimation of the cumulative distribution function (cdf) is of great interest: it allows for instance to derive quantiles estimators or other non linear parameters derived from the cdf.
