Nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation of the survival function using current lifetime data
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract An issue when estimating the failure time survival function is how to set up a prevalent cohort study infrastructure to follow subjects after enrollment. This problem can be circumvented through the well‐known Grenander density estimator using current lifetime observations only.

BMC Genomics, 2019 Background Genomic selection accuracy increases with the use of high SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) coverage. However, such gains in coverage come at high costs, preventing their prompt operational implementation by breeders.

Optimal subsampling for regression with mixed‐type predictors
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Subsampling has emerged as an appealing strategy to mitigate the computational and storage challenges imposed by large datasets. Recent subsampling techniques have shown notable computational gains for data dominated by numerical predictors. However, real‐world datasets frequently contain both numerical and categorical predictors.

Homophily‐adjusted social influence estimation
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Homophily and social influence are two key concepts of social network analysis. Distinguishing between these phenomena is difficult, and approaches to disambiguate the two have been primarily limited to longitudinal data analyses. In this study, we provide sufficient conditions for valid estimation of social influence through cross‐sectional ...

L’importance accordée par des ergothérapeutes canadiens à des valeurs phares de la profession
Revue Francophone de Recherche en Ergothérapie, 2019 Introduction. Bien que plusieurs raisons justifient d’étudier les valeurs professionnelles des ergothérapeutes, peu d’études empiriques les ont documentées. Objectif.

Thermal resistivity and hydrodynamics of the degenerate electron fluid in antimony
Nature Communications, 2021 Viscous fermionic flow appears in liquid helium but rarely appears in metallic solid. Here, Jaoui et al. report a T-square thermal resistivity due to momentum conserving electronic scattering in semi-metallic antimony, which is in agreement with the ...

Extreme conditional quantile estimation for time series
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract We consider the estimation of an extreme conditional quantile QY(1−p|x0)$$ {Q}_Y\left(1-p|{x}_0\right) $$ for a heavy‐tailed distribution in the case of a strictly stationary time series (Xt,Yt)t∈ℤ$$ {\left({X}_t,{Y}_t\right)}_{t\in \mathbb{Z}} $$. Here, QY(·|x0)$$ {Q}_Y\left(\cdotp |{x}_0\right) $$ denotes the conditional quantile function of

Some particular design considerations for optimum utilization of under floor heating systems
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2018 This paper aims at studying the thermal behavior of an under floor heating system via CFD calculations. The results have discussed some important parameters that need to be controlled for an appropriate operation of the system.

Sparse maximum likelihood estimation of regression models
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract For regression model selection and estimation, we study a small set of candidate models of maximum likelihood from which all information criteria such as the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) choose their models.
