Natural Gradient Flow in the Mixture Geometry of a Discrete Exponential Family [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
In this paper, we study Amari’s natural gradient flows of real functions defined on the densities belonging to an exponential family on a finite sample space. Our main example is the minimization of the expected value of a real function defined on the sample space.

Optimal Nonlinear Estimation in Statistical Manifolds with Application to Sensor Network Localization

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Information geometry enables a deeper understanding of the methods of statistical inference. In this paper, the problem of nonlinear parameter estimation is considered from a geometric viewpoint using a natural gradient descent on statistical manifolds ...

Large Ankyrin repeat proteins are formed with similar and energetically favorable units.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Ankyrin containing proteins are one of the most abundant repeat protein families present in all extant organisms. They are made with tandem copies of similar amino acid stretches that fold into elongated architectures.

Boundedness of Variance Functions of Natural Exponential Families with Unbounded Support

open access: yesMathematics
The variance function (VF) is central to natural exponential family (NEF) theory. Prompted by an online query about whether, beyond the classical normal NEF, other real-line NEFs with bounded VFs exist, we establish three complementary sets of sufficient

Elevated Connectivity During Language Processing Is Associated With Cognitive Performance in SeLECTS

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Self‐Limited Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (SeLECTS) is associated with language impairments despite seizures originating in the motor cortex, suggesting aberrant cross‐network interactions. Here we tested whether functional connectivity in SeLECTS during language tasks predicts language performance.

Location and scale behaviour of the quantiles of a natural exponential family [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Probability and Statistics, 2020
Let P0 be a probability on the real line generating a natural exponential family (Pt)t∈ℝ. Fix α in (0, 1). We show that the property that Pt((−∞, t)) ≤ α ≤ Pt((−∞, t]) for all t implies that there exists a number μα such that P0 is the Gaussian distribution N(μα, 1).

Titanium Suboxides Responsible for Electronic Anomaly Near Room Temperature in the Ti3C2Tx MXene

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Our multi‐technique study reveals that the near‐room‐temperature anomaly in Ti3C2Tx MXene is linked to titanium suboxide nanodomains, including Ti3O5, embedded within the MXene host. Their temperature‐driven transformation provides an alternative explanation to solvent‐ and swelling‐based models and offers new insight into the thermally activated ...

Decoupling Light Absorption From Photocatalytic Reactivity in TiO2 via Defect and Interfacial Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid photoprotective material integrates N‐doped TiO2 with a metal‐phenolic network (MPN) to achieve broad‐spectrum attenuation and robust reactive oxygen species (ROS) suppression. Nitrogen doping extends attenuation into the UVA/high energy visible light (HEV) regions and facilitates fast charge recombination to inhibit ROS formation.

Impact of Disorder on Microscopic Superconducting and Normal‐State Responses in a Kagome Metal

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Using depth‐resolved, field‐ and pressure‐dependent μSR$\umu{\rm SR}$ measurements, we show that disorder in Ta‐doped KV3Sb5 drives a crossover from nodal to nodeless superconductivity while strongly modifying the normal‐state magnetic response. Our results reveal that disorder affects superconductivity and magnetism in fundamentally different ways ...

Count Random Variables

open access: yesEncyclopedia
The observation of randomness patterns serves as guidance for the craft of probabilistic modelling. The most used count models—Binomial, Poisson, Negative Binomial—are the discrete Morris’ natural exponential families whose variance is at most quadratic ...
