Addition of Phentermine‐Topiramate to a Digitally Enhanced Lifestyle Intervention: A Double‐Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study compared the effects of phentermine‐topiramate‐ER (mid‐dose 7.5/46 mg) versus placebo on weight loss and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk outcomes when used as an adjunct to a digitally enhanced lifestyle intervention (DELI).

A Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for Bayesian policy search

open access: yesSystems Science & Control Engineering, 2018
Policy search algorithms have facilitated application of Reinforcement Learning (RL) to dynamic systems, such as control of robots. Many policy search algorithms are based on the policy gradient, and thus may suffer from slow convergence or local optima ...

The effects of seasonality and parasitism on diet and habitat selection in the common periwinkle

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The common periwinkle Littorina littorea is an ecologically important grazer, known for its strong influence on algal communities and its role in structuring ecosystems. It serves as the first intermediate host for several trematode species in the Baltic Sea, especially for the fluke Cryptocotyle lingua.

Shifts in phenology influence synchrony of flowering plants and their pollinators along an elevation gradient

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions alter the phenology of species, which may threaten the synchrony of biotic interactions. However, how phenological synchrony across entire communities of plants and their pollinators responds to varying environmental conditions remains poorly understood.

Sex matters: European urban birds flee approaching women sooner than approaching men

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Flight initiation distance (FID) is a metric often used to study an individual's perceptions of risk when facing a predatory threat. Longer FID indicates lower risk‐taking, while shorter FID identifies bolder individuals who tolerate greater risk.

A Bayesian Analysis in the Presence of Covariates for Multivariate Survival Data: An example of Application Análisis bayesiano en presencia de covariables para datos de sobrevivencia multivariados: un ejemplo de aplicación

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2011
In this paper, we introduce a Bayesian analysis for survival multivariate data in the presence of a covariate vector and censored observations. Different "frailties" or latent variables are considered to capture the correlation among the survival times ...
