Patterns and Drivers of Spanish Corporate Commitment to the UN Global Compact: A Quantitative Approach

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a quantitative assessment of Spanish companies' commitment to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Analyzing over 1000 participating firms, we identify prioritization patterns and examine structural factors influencing SDG adherence.

Battle of the Bands: Trying to Identify Contributions to a Collaboration

Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education
In this article, we create and explore a dataset containing musical and lyrical features for tracks from three rock bands—Manchester Orchestra, The Front Bottoms, and All Get Out—all of whom contributed to a collaborative track, “Allentown.” We use the ...

Variational Inference in Nonconjugate Models

, 2013
Mean-field variational methods are widely used for approximate posterior inference in many probabilistic models. In a typical application, mean-field methods approximately compute the posterior with a coordinate-ascent optimization algorithm.

A Study of Objective Prediction for Summer Precipitation Patterns Over Eastern China Based on a Multinomial Logistic Regression Model

Atmosphere, 2019
The prediction of summer precipitation patterns (PPs) over eastern China is an important and topical issue in China. Predictors that are selected based on historical information may not be suitable for the future due to non-stationary relationships ...

Twenty years of dynamic occupancy models: a review of applications and look to the future

Ecography, EarlyView.
Since their introduction over 20 years ago, dynamic occupancy models (DOMs) have become a powerful and flexible framework for estimating species occupancy across space and time while accounting for imperfect detection. As their popularity has increased and extensions have further expanded their capabilities, DOMs have been applied to increasingly ...

Log-Linear Bayesian Additive Regression Trees for Multinomial Logistic and Count Regression Models

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2017
We introduce Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) for log-linear models including multinomial logistic regression and count regression with zero-inflation and overdispersion.

Interpretation of in vitro concentration‐response data for risk assessment and regulatory decision‐making: Report from the 2022 IWGT quantitative analysis expert working group meeting

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Quantitative risk assessments of chemicals are routinely performed using in vivo data from rodents; however, there is growing recognition that non‐animal approaches can be human‐relevant alternatives. There is an urgent need to build confidence in non‐animal alternatives given the international support to reduce the use of animals in toxicity ...

Late‐onset unexplained epilepsy as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia: Protocol for a multi‐center prospective longitudinal observational study (ELUCID)

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Late‐onset unexplained epilepsy (LoUE), defined as epilepsy onset after age 55 without an obvious cause, is an important risk factor for dementia. Studies have shown that 10%–25% of individuals with LoUE develop dementia within 3–4 years following their first seizure.
