Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies. To help patients and providers in the decision‐making process, we developed

Comparison of parameters of the generalized extreme value distribution associated with extreme rainfall events in Central America

open access: yesUniciencia, 2020
The generalized extreme value distribution (GEVD) was used to model extreme rainfall events in Central America for a period of 30 years, beginning in 1971.

Accessing extremes of mid-latitudinal wave activity: methodology and application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A statistical methodology is proposed and tested for the analysis of extreme values of atmospheric wave activity at mid-latitudes. The adopted methods are the classical block-maximum and peak over threshold, respectively based on the generalized ...

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Statistical modeling of annual highest monthly rainfall in Zimbabwe

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The first statistical analysis of maximum rainfall in Zimbabwe is provided. The data are from 103 stations spread across the different climatic regions of Zimbabwe. More than 90% of the stations had at least 50 years of data.

Numerical convergence of the block-maxima approach to the Generalized Extreme Value distribution

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we perform an analytical and numerical study of Extreme Value distributions in discrete dynamical systems. In this setting, recent works have shown how to get a statistics of extremes in agreement with the classical Extreme Value Theory. We

3D‐Printed Serial Snap‐Through Architectures for Programmable Mechanical Response

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A serial snap‐through architecture is realized using compact 3D‐printed von Mises truss units arranged in a staged cascade. Their geometry and boundary conditions program multistage mechanical responses with plateaux and re‐hardening regimes. An inverted‐compliance model predicts these behaviors and enables analytical design of programmable force ...

Estimating Climate Risk Exposure in the U.S. Insurance Sector Using Factor Model and EVT

open access: yesMathematics
This study examines the exposure of the U.S. insurance sector to climate-related risks using a two-step approach combining factor modeling and Extreme Value Theory. The analysis first constructs a climate risk factor from transition-sensitive sectors and

Bayesian inference for generalized extreme value distributions via Hamiltonian Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation, 2017
In this paper we propose to evaluate and compare Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods to estimate the parameters in a generalized extreme value model. We employed the Bayesian approach using traditional Metropolis-Hastings methods, Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) and Riemann manifold HMC (RMHMC) methods to obtain the approximations to the posterior ...
