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 ...

A Statistical Detection of an Anomaly from a Few Noisy Tomographic Projections
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2005 The problem of detecting an anomaly/target from a very limited number of noisy tomographic projections is addressed from the statistical point of view. The imaged object is composed of an environment, considered as a nuisance parameter, with a possibly ...

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 The choice of an odour nuisance assessment method depends on many factors, such as: the type and quantity of objects, the diversity and type of odour sources, the location of the object, the social situation and the number of complaints about odor ...

Robust variance estimation and inference for causal effect estimation
Journal of Causal Inference, 2023 We present two novel approaches to variance estimation of semi-parametric efficient point estimators of the treatment-specific mean: (i) a robust approach that directly targets the variance of the influence function (IF) as a counterfactual mean outcome ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Beyond scale variations: perturbative theory uncertainties from nuisance parameters
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe develop a new approach to estimate the uncertainty due to missing higher orders in perturbative predictions (the perturbative “theory uncertainty”), which overcomes many inherent limitations of the currently prevalent methods based on varying ...

Robust Motion Regression of Resting-State Data Using a Convolutional Neural Network Model
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) based on the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal has been widely used in healthy individuals and patients to investigate brain functions when the subjects are in a resting or task ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Accurate localization of epileptic activity remains challenging when interictal discharges are absent or sparse. Although resting‐state functional MRI (rs‐fMRI) is noninvasive, individual rs‐fMRI metrics provide inconsistent and incomplete localization.

Estimating Equations in the Presence of a Nuisance Parameter
The Annals of Statistics, 1974 Estimating equations for a real parameter $\theta$ which indexes a family of densities $p(x, \theta)$ were considered in the note by Godambe (Ann. Math. Statist. 31 (1960) 1208-1211). An optimality property of the equation $\partial \log p/\partial \theta = 0$ among unbiased estimating equations was established.
