Generalized modes in Bayesian inverse problems [PDF]
, 2019 Uncertainty quantification requires efficient summarization of high- or even infinite-dimensional (i.e., non-parametric) distributions based on, e.g., suitable point estimates (modes) for posterior distributions arising from model-specific prior ...

CONTESTED METABOLIC NODES: Shareholding Cooperatives and Planetary Ruralization in China
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract China's recent shareholding cooperative (SC) reform heralds a shift from expropriation‐led rural change to a post‐expropriation regime in which the countryside is reconstituted through circulation, capitalization, and new forms of collective governance. Existing interpretations, whether framed as market‐driven de‐collectivization, state‐led re‐

Worrying Expertise: Representation and Expert Knowledge in Trade Unions
The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Studies of professionalisation, oligarchy and expertise have asked how expertise affects democratic representation in professionalised membership organisations. This article approaches that problem from the other direction by examining the role of representation in the production of expert knowledge.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

"Uniform Measures On Inverse Limit Spaces" [PDF]
Motivated by problems from dynamic economic models, we consider the problem of defining a uniform measure on inverse limit spaces. Let f be a function from a compact metric space X into itself where f is continuous, onto and piecewise one-to-one.

Water Use Behavior of Individual Birds: Ring Ouzels in an Arid High‐Mountain Ecosystem
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Water is a limiting resource for birds in arid ecosystems. Individual birds differ strongly in how they use shared water sources, with drinking behavior increasing with temperature. Behavioral differences, hierarchy, and social context ultimately shape unequal access to water within the population. ABSTRACT Water availability strongly constrains animal

Moment-based estimation for parameters of general inverse subordinator
In recent years the processes with anomalous diffusive dynamics have been widely discussed in the literature. The classic example of the anomalous diffusive models is the continuous time random walk (CTRW) which is a natural generalization of the random ...

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.Abstract This article analyses to what degree Benjamin Robins's discoveries in his book New Principles of Gunnery, 1742, affected the British mathematical, military, and educational world of the mid‐eighteenth century. While it drew praise and critique from Europe, especially from the notable mathematician Leonhard Euler, his mathematical theories were

Statistical inference for inverse problems [PDF]
In this paper we study statistical inference for certain inverse problems. We go beyond mere estimation purposes and review and develop the construction of confidence intervals and confidence bands in some inverse problems, including deconvolution and ...
