Régimes de rationalité, post-vérité et conspirationnisme : a-t-on perdu le goût du vrai ?

open access: yesArgumentation et Analyse du Discours, 2020
This article proposes to analyze the phenomena of post-truth and conspiracy as part of a new regime of rationality. Its causes, both political and epistemological, are producing radical changes in the way we debate and in our relationship to reason ...

Likelihood of concurrent climate extremes and variations over China

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Extreme climate events such as droughts and heat waves exert strong impacts on ecosystems and human well-being. Estimations of the risks of climate extremes typically focus on one variable in isolation.

Generalised likelihood profiles for models with intractable likelihoods

open access: yesStatistics and Computing, 2023
Likelihood profiling is an efficient and powerful frequentist approach for parameter estimation, uncertainty quantification and practical identifiablity analysis. Unfortunately, these methods cannot be easily applied for stochastic models without a tractable likelihood function.

Analysis of LULC Change Dynamics That Have Occurred in Tuscany (Italy) Since 2007

open access: yesLand
The dynamics of Land Use/Land Cover changes are crucial to environmental sustainability, socio-economic development, and spatial planning. These changes stem from complex interactions between human activities, natural processes, and policies.

The Likelihood of Mixed Hitting Times: Replication Package

open access: yes, 2021
This MATLAB code replicates the numerical results in Abbring and Salimans (2021). This covers the computation of the likelihood of the mixed hitting-time (MHT) model, maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of parametric versions of this model, and an ...
