Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 2009-2017, July 2026.Abstract In the field of evolutionary biology, the selection of a phylogenetically representative sample is a crucial step to have a complete and accurate understanding of the studied group and the evolution of its traits. However, this step is often overlooked, and there is currently no objective way to assess the relevance of a sample for a given ...

Rank‐based estimation of propensity score weights via subclassification
Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Propensity score (PS) weighting estimators are widely used for causal effect estimation and enjoy desirable theoretical properties, such as consistency and potential efficiency under correct model specification. However, their performance can degrade in practice due to sensitivity to PS model misspecification.

Predicting cervical cancer DNA methylation from genetic data using multivariate CMMP
Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Epigenetic modifications link the environment to gene expression and play a crucial role in tumour development. DNA methylation, in particular, is gaining attention in cancer research, including cervical cancer, the focus of this study.

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract We establish the consistency and the asymptotic distribution of the least squares estimators of the coefficients of a subset vector autoregressive process with exogenous variables (VARX). Using a martingale central limit theorem, we derive the asymptotic normal distribution of the estimators. Diagnostic checking is discussed using kernel‐based
