ABSTRACT Agricultural development initiatives in sub‐Saharan Africa have emphasized improved crop varieties as a pathway to food security, resilience, and rural poverty reduction. However, empirical evidence often focuses narrowly on plot‐level outcomes and overlooks whole‐farm effects and the substantial heterogeneity in farmers' management practices,

Abstract Ensemble perturbations in 4DEnVar‐type methods are pulled in two directions at once: estimating a reliable background‐error covariance (BEC) calls for perturbations large enough to sample real error structure, while a valid tangent‐linear (TL) approximation calls for perturbations small enough to stay near‐linear.

Mission‐Aligned Learning‐Informed Control of Autonomous Systems: Formulation and Foundations
ABSTRACT Research, innovation and practical capital investment have been increasing rapidly toward the realization of autonomous physical agents. This includes industrial and service robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, embedded control devices, and a number of other realizations of cybernetic/mechatronic implementations of intelligent autonomous devices.

A Note on Local Polynomial Regression for Time Series in Banach Spaces
ABSTRACT This work extends local polynomial regression to Banach space‐valued time series for estimating smoothly varying means and their derivatives in non‐stationary data. The asymptotic properties of both the standard and bias‐reduced Jackknife estimators are analyzed under mild moment conditions, establishing their convergence rates.

Robust Estimation and Inference for Time‐Varying Unconditional Volatility
ABSTRACT We derive a general and robust estimator of a large class of parametric specifications of time‐varying unconditional volatility of financial returns, both univariate and multivariate, and establish the Consistency and Asymptotic Normality (CAN) of the estimator.

Selector form of Weaver's conjecture and frame sparsification
Abstract We show an extension of a probabilistic result of Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava, which resolved the Kadison–Singer problem, to block diagonal positive semidefinite random matrices. We use this result to show several selector results, which generalize their partition counterparts.
