Bayesian hierarchical modelling of sea-level extremes in the Finnish coastal region [PDF]
Occurrence probabilities of extreme sea levels required in coastal planning, e.g. for calculating design floods, have been traditionally estimated individually at each tide-gauge location.

Criteria For Conceptual And Operational Notions of Complexity [PDF]
While complex systems have been studied now for more than two decades, there still is no agreement on what complexity actually is. This lack of a definition might be a problem when asking questions about the evolution of complexity.

On the complexity of hierarchical problem solving
Competent Genetic Algorithms can efficiently address problems in which the linkage between variables is limited to a small order k. Problems with higher order dependencies can only be addressed efficiently if further problem properties exist that can be ...

A hierarchical model to estimate the abundance and biomass of salmonids by using removal sampling and biometric data from multiple locations [PDF]
We present a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate the abundance and the biomass of brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) by using removal sampling and biometric data collected at several stream sections.

SBML Level 3 package: Hierarchical Model Composition, Version 1 Release 3
Constructing a model in a hierarchical fashion is a natural approach to managing model complexity, and offers additional opportunities such as the potential to re-use model components.

One size does not fit all: Customizing MCMC methods for hierarchical models using NIMBLE
Improved efficiency of Markov chain Monte Carlo facilitates all aspects of statistical analysis with Bayesian hierarchical models. Identifying strategies to improve MCMC performance is becoming increasingly crucial as the complexity of models, and the ...

Secondary transfer effects of intergroup contact via social identity complexity. [PDF]
Secondary transfer effects (STEs) of intergroup contact refer to the generalization of contact effects from a primary encountered outgroup to attitudes towards secondary outgroups (Pettigrew, 2009). Using two large, cross-sectional data sets from Germany

Routing performance in a hierarchical DHT-based overlay network [PDF]
The scalability properties of DHT based overlay networks is considered satisfactory. However, in large scale systems this might still cause a problem since they have a logarithmic complexity depending.

A Complexity-Theoretic Perspective on Innovation Policy [PDF]
It is argued that innovation policy based on notions of market failure or system failure is too limited in the context of current societal challenges. I propose a third, complexity-theoretic approach.
