Uncertainty Quantification of Analytical Solutions for the Nonlinear Space and Time Fractional Order ϕ4$$ {\phi}^4 $$ Equation Under Fuzziness

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Analytical fuzzy soliton solutions of a modified space–time fractional ϕ4$$ {\phi}^4 $$ model are derived using EHFM, capturing memory effects and uncertainty. Results reveal diverse wave structures and show how fractional order and fuzziness significantly influence soliton amplitude, localization, and propagation, with heightened sensitivity near the ...

The impact of rapid urbanization on water resources based on INLA

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Rapid urbanization reshapes regional water resources by reconfiguring land systems and altering the balance between runoff and infiltration. Empirical evidence that jointly accounts for human and natural drivers while addressing spatial dependence ...

Faster Detection of Poliomyelitis Outbreaks to Support Polio Eradication

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
As the global eradication of poliomyelitis approaches the final stages, prompt detection of new outbreaks is critical to enable a fast and effective outbreak response. Surveillance relies on reporting of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases and laboratory

A Mixture of Distributed Lag Non‐Linear Models to Account for Spatially Heterogeneous Exposure‐Lag‐Response Associations

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 15-17, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental exposures, such as air pollution and extreme temperatures, have complex effects on human health. These effects are often characterized by non‐linear exposure‐lag‐response relationships and delayed impacts over time. Accurately capturing these dynamics is crucial for informing public health interventions.

Impact of Community-Based Larviciding on the Prevalence of Malaria Infection in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2013
The use of larval source management is not prioritized by contemporary malaria control programs in sub-Saharan Africa despite historical success. Larviciding, in particular, could be effective in urban areas where transmission is focal and accessibility ...

Geometric overdispersion facilitates the integration of ecological data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 2104-2122, July 2026.
Abstract Statistical data integration facilitates inference based on the variety of data prevalent in ecology. In particular, integrated distribution models (IDMs) have been proposed for inferring spatial patterns in abundance using combinations of noisy count, presence–absence and presence–only data.

Causal Models as a Scientific Framework for Next‐Generation Ecosystem and Climate‐Linked Stock Assessments

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 942-959, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid changes in marine ecosystems highlight the need to account for time‐varying productivity in stock assessments used to support fisheries management. Common approaches incorporate annual variation or regressing processes such as recruitment, natural mortality, or growth on environmental variables.

Implementing approximate Bayesian inference for survival analysis using integrated nested Laplace approximations [PDF]

, 2010
This manual describes theinla program, a new instrument which allows the user to easily perform approximate Bayesian inference using integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA). We describe the set of models which can be solved by the inla program and

A methodological framework for the improved use of routine health system data to evaluate national malaria control programs : evidence from Zambia [PDF]

, 2014
Due to challenges in laboratory confirmation, reporting completeness, timeliness, and health access, routine incidence data from health management information systems (HMIS) have rarely been used for the rigorous evaluation of malaria control program ...
