Bayesian Estimation of the Binomial Parameter in Adaptive Designs With Treatment Selection
ABSTRACT It is well‐known that results from adaptive multi‐arm experiments with treatment selection are subject to the bias of the selection process. In this article, we consider designs with a binary outcome that begin with randomized parallel arms.

ABSTRACT Health risk behaviors, including smoking, poor nutrition, alcohol misuse, and physical inactivity (SNAP), are leading contributors to chronic disease burden and healthcare costs worldwide. Their prevalence is shaped not only by individual demographic characteristics but also by contextual factors such as socioeconomic and occupational ...

ESTIMATION OF THE KULLBACK-LEIBLER DIVERGENCE
The Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence K(fl, P) between a set O of probability measures (PMs) on ]R d and some PM P cannot be estimated by K(O, Pn) when O contains PM whose support is not included in the support of the empirical measure Pn. We propose an estimation procedure which avoids any smoothing of Pn.

Abstract Fault slip occurs in both seismic and aseismic styles with spatial variability across scales, yet non‐unique source inference limits our ability to resolve slip complexity and dynamics. Here we evaluate the effect of spatial smoothing regularization in Bayesian frameworks by comparing an unregularized (BUR) approach that samples distributed ...

Toward Generative Machine Learning for Boosting Ensembles of Climate Simulations
Abstract Accurately quantifying uncertainty in predictions and projections arising from irreducible internal climate variability is critical for decision‐making. Such uncertainty is typically assessed using ensembles produced with climate models. However, computational constraints impose a trade‐off between generating large ensembles required for ...

Directional Dynamics of Fog: Irreversibility and Causal Coupling With Turbulence
Abstract Fog prediction remains challenging because the physical processes governing its life cycle evolve across time scales and do not follow reversible or stationary dynamics. Using high‐frequency visibility observations from Sable Island, Canada, this study analyzes fog intensity and turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) for their time irreversibility and
