An efficient PG-INLA algorithm for the Bayesian inference of logistic item response models
In this paper, we propose a Bayesian PG-INLA algorithm which is tailored to both one-dimensional and multidimensional 2-PL IRT models. The proposed PG-INLA algorithm utilizes a computationally efficient data augmentation strategy via the Pólya-Gamma ...

New opportunities for grassland species in warming temperate winters
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Temperate winters are getting warmer, the length of the growing season is increasing and mid‐winter fluctuations of warm and freezing temperatures are more frequent. Although typically winter dormant, some herbaceous perennials can maintain or grow green leaves during ...

Background and Purpose Network meta‐analysis (NMA) enables the simultaneous comparison of multiple treatments by combining direct and indirect evidence across a network of studies. While its application is rapidly expanding in pharmacological research and clinical guideline development, performing NMA typically requires advanced statistical knowledge ...

Unveiling the Mutations and Conservation of InlA in Listeria monocytogenes
Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) is a pathogen that is transmitted through contaminated food and causes the illness known as listeriosis. The virulence factor InlA plays a crucial role in the invasion of L.

Using Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 data (1990–2021), we quantified autism spectrum disorder (ASD) prevalence, incidence, and disability‐adjusted life years (DALYs) by age, sex, region, and SDI; assessed temporal trends (EAPC); and projected future burden (BAPC).

An Extended Laplace Approximation Method for Bayesian Inference of Self-Exciting Spatial-Temporal Models of Count Data [PDF]
Self-Exciting models are statistical models of count data where the probability of an event occurring is influenced by the history of the process. In particular, self-exciting spatio-temporal models allow for spatial dependence as well as temporal self ...
