Estimating Nuisance Parameters in Inverse Problems

, 2012
Many inverse problems include nuisance parameters which, while not of direct interest, are required to recover primary parameters. Structure present in these problems allows efficient optimization strategies - a well known example is variable projection,

Citizen science deepens the ecological and climatic dimensions of mosquito surveillance

Ecography, EarlyView.
As mosquito‐borne diseases continue to expand worldwide, integrating citizen science into vector surveillance presents untapped potential. This study compares ecological models of Aedes albopictus, an invasive mosquito and global vector of dengue and other arboviruses, in Spain (2020–2022), using two contrasting data sources: traditional traps and ...
