Journal of Epidemiology, 2023 Background: The counterfactual definition of confounding is often explained in the context of exchangeability between the exposed and unexposed groups.

The Computer Journal, 2003 Summary: The growing importance of electronic commerce and the increasing number of applications in this area has led research into studying methods of how to perform safe and secure online business transactions over the Internet. A central problen, in this context is that of fair exchange, i.e. how to exchange two electronic items in a fair manner. We

Asymptotic Efficiency of Point Estimators in Bayesian Predictive Inference
Mathematics, 2022 The point estimation problems that emerge in Bayesian predictive inference are concerned with random quantities which depend on both observable and non-observable variables.

Family-based multi-SNP X chromosome analysis using parental information
Frontiers in Genetics, 2016 We propose a method for association analysis of haplotypes on the X chromosome that offers both improved power and robustness to population stratification in studies of affected offspring and their parents if all three have been genotyped.

A Central Limit Theorem for Predictive Distributions
Mathematics, 2021 Let S be a Borel subset of a Polish space and F the set of bounded Borel functions f:S→R. Let an(·)=P(Xn+1∈·∣X1,…,Xn) be the n-th predictive distribution corresponding to a sequence (Xn) of S-valued random variables.

The de Finetti structure behind some norm-symmetric multivariate densities with exponential decay
Dependence Modeling, 2020 We derive a sufficient condition on the symmetric norm ||·|| such that the probability distribution associated with the density function f (x) ∝exp(−λ ||x||) is conditionally independent and identically distributed in the sense of de Finetti’s seminal ...

Implementing Markovian models for extendible Marshall–Olkin distributions
Dependence Modeling, 2022 We derive a novel stochastic representation of exchangeable Marshall–Olkin distributions based on their death-counting processes. We show that these processes are Markov.

Dependence Modeling, 2023 Working with shuffles, we establish a close link between Kendall’s τ\tau , the so-called length measure, and the surface area of bivariate copulas and derive some consequences.

Exchange-Repairs: Managing Inconsistency in Data Exchange [PDF]
Journal on Data Semantics, 2014 In a data exchange setting with target constraints, it is often the case that a given source instance has no solutions. In such cases, the semantics of target queries trivialize. The aim of this paper is to introduce and explore a new framework that gives meaningful semantics in such cases by using the notion of exchange-repairs.
