Abstract Traditional item response theory (IRT) models involve symmetric response probability functions, but a developing area of research has focused on asymmetric alternatives. To date, these studies have focused primarily on introducing new asymmetric models, detailing their mathematical formulations, explaining how to interpret their item ...

Abstract Measurement non‐invariance arises when the psychometric properties of a scale differ across subgroups, undermining the validity of group comparisons. At the item level, this manifests as differential item functioning (DIF), where item responses differ across groups after controlling for the latent trait.

Model fit and parameter uncertainty in amortized variational inference based item response theory
Abstract Amortized variational inference (AVI) has become a popular, computationally efficient alternative to marginal maximum likelihood estimation (MML) for estimating high‐dimensional item response theory models on large datasets. However, currently the AVI framework lacks methods to assess model fit and determine parameter uncertainty.

Approximation of differential eigenvalue problems
To solve a one-dimensional second-order differential eigenvalue problem, we use the finite-element method with numerical integration. We analyze the influence of the quadrature formulas used on the error in the approximate eigenvalues and eigenelements ...

The Weddell Sea influences global ocean circulation and sea level through modulating Antarctic Bottom Water formation and Antarctic Ice Sheet discharges, but the history of ice‐sheet dynamics in this region remains poorly constrained due to limited well‐dated geological records.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...
