Fast estimation of Kendall's Tau and conditional Kendall's Tau matrices under structural assumptions

open access: yesDependence Modeling
Kendall’s tau and conditional Kendall’s tau matrices are multivariate (conditional) dependence measures between the components of a random vector. For large dimensions, available estimators are computationally expensive and can be improved by averaging ...

A few generalizations of Kendall’s tau. Part I: Construction [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis
Complimenting our earlier work on generalizations of popular concordance measures in the sense of Scarsini for a pair of continuous random variables (X, Y) (such measures can be understood as functions of the bivariate copula C associated with (X, Y ...

Investigator’s Global Assessment of Chronic Prurigo: A New Instrument for Use in Clinical Trials

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2021
Chronic prurigo is a pruritic disease characterized by the development of pruriginous lesions due to scratching. The number of lesions is representative of the stage of the disease, while the presence of excoriations reflects the scratching activity. Aim

Relationships among tissues, biofluids, and otolith selenium concentrations in wild female burbot (Lota lota)

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Interpreting Kendall’s Tau and Tau-U for single-case experimental designs

open access: yesCogent Psychology, 2018
Tau (τ), a nonparametric rank order correlation statistic, has been applied to single-case experimental designs with promising results. Tau-U, a family of related coefficients, partitions variance associated with changes in trend and level.

Information Entropy Based on Propagation Feature of Node for Identifying the Influential Nodes

open access: yesComplexity, 2021
For understanding and controlling spreading in complex networks, identifying the most influential nodes, which can be applied to disease control, viral marketing, air traffic control, and many other fields, is of great importance. By taking the effect of

A consistent approach to the genotype encoding problem in a genome-wide association study of continuous phenotypes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
In this study, we suggested a hypothesis test method that was robust to different genotype encodings in a genome-wide association analysis of continuous traits.
