Censored Posterior and Predictive Likelihood in Bayesian Left-Tail Prediction for Accurate Value at Risk Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Accurate prediction of risk measures such as Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) requires precise estimation of the tail of the predictive distribution.

Applications of the distance measures between the prior and posterior distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
In a typical inferential problem, the conclusion reached by a Bayesian statistician depends on three components: the prior distribution, the likelihood function, and the observed sample data.

Bayesian estimation using Lindley’s approximation of Inverted Kumaraswamy distribution based on lower record values

open access: yes, 2023
In this paper, we have considered estimation of unknown parameters based on lower record values for Inverted Kumaraswamy distribution. Maximum likelihood and approximate Bayes estimators based on lower record values for unknown parameters of this distribution are obtained.

“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

Simulating Tail Probabilities in GI/GI.1 Queues and Insurance Risk Processes with Subexponentail Distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper deals with estimating small tail probabilities of thesteady-state waiting time in a GI/GI/1 queue with heavy-tailed (subexponential) service times.

Vascular plant diversity in Swedish road verges of high conservation value is threatened by the invasive alien herb Lupinus polyphyllus Lindley

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Road verges can be important habitats for vascular plant communities and the organisms that, in turn, depend on them. However, the plant diversity in Swedish road verges is threatened by the invasive perennial plant Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of L.

Genomic responses to increased temperature and pollinator selection in Brassica rapa L.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Rapid environmental change reshapes both abiotic stress and biotic interactions, yet it remains unclear how these combined forces structure plants' genomic adaptation. In particular, the joint influence of temperature and pollinator identity, two ecological axes undergoing simultaneous global shifts, has rarely been quantified at genomic ...

A New Unit‐Lindley Mixed‐Effects Model With an Application to Electricity Access Data

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel unit‐Lindley mixed‐effects model (NULMM) within the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) framework, designed for analyzing correlated response variables bounded within the unit interval. Parameter estimation was conducted via maximum likelihood, using Laplace approximation and adaptive Gaussian‐ Hermite ...

Century‐Scale Changes in the Feeding Patterns of Demersal Fish Species in the Western North Sea

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 99-115, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the extent and magnitude of change in marine food webs requires historical data that predates modern monitoring efforts. Such information can provide invaluable insights into the longer‐term impacts of altered trophic interactions, yet it is rarely incorporated into marine policy frameworks.
