Bayesian Inference for Multivariate Monotone Densities

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 1206-1229, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider a nonparametric Bayesian approach to estimation and testing for a multivariate monotone density. Instead of following the conventional Bayesian approach of imposing a prior that satisfies the monotonicity restriction, we place a prior on the step heights via binning and a Dirichlet distribution. The resulting posterior distribution

A Lightweight and Erudite Automated BiLSTM‐Based Multi‐Cycle GAN for Retinal Blood Vessel and Optic Disc Segmentation in Fundus Images

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
This graphical abstract presents a lightweight and automated BiLSTM‐based Multi‐Cycle GAN framework for retinal blood vessel and optic disc segmentation in fundus images. Initially, fundus images undergo preprocessing, including green channel extraction, denoising, resizing, and dataset splitting.

SMAA‐Based FITradeoff: An Efficient Framework for Pairwise Elicitation in Multicriteria Decision Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Flexible and Interactive Tradeoff Elicitation (FITradeoff) method is a Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making (MADM) approach designed to capture the preferences of a Decision Maker (DM) while minimising cognitive effort. To reduce the frequency of interactions and optimise the preference elicitation process, this paper introduces an innovative ...

Variable Selection for Fixed and Random Effects in Multilevel Functional Mixed Effects Models

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 18-19, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We develop a new method for simultaneously selecting fixed and random effects in a multilevel functional regression model. The proposed method is motivated by accelerometer‐derived physical activity data from the 2011 to 2012 cohort of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), with the aim of identifying age and race ...

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 957-976, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...
