Variational Bayes Estimation of Discrete-Margined Copula Models with Application to Time Series

, 2018
We propose a new variational Bayes estimator for high-dimensional copulas with discrete, or a combination of discrete and continuous, margins. The method is based on a variational approximation to a tractable augmented posterior, and is faster than ...

Association of BMI with adherence and outcome in heart failure patients treated with wearable cardioverter defibrillator

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1295-1303, April 2025.
Abstract Background Obesity is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet an ‘obesity paradox’ has been observed in various CVD contexts. The impact of obesity on heart failure (HF) patients treated with a wearable cardioverter‐defibrillator (WCD) remains underexplored.

Efficacy of vagus nerve stimulator during transition to adulthood in patients with treatment‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) as an adjunctive treatment in pediatric patients with treatment‐resistant epilepsy during the transition to adolescence. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 30 children (ages 2–18 years) with medication‐resistant epilepsy who underwent VNS implantation between

Comparison of Ordinal Logistic Regression and Geographically Weighted Ordinal Logistic Regression (GWOLR) in Predicting Stunting Prevalence among Indonesian Toddlers

Sainmatika: Jurnal Ilmiah Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam
Ordinal logistic regression is a type of logistic regression used for response variables with an ordinal scale, containing two or more categories with levels between them. This method is an extension of logistic regression where the observed response variable is ordinal with a clear order.

Predictive value of seizure onset for gross motor dysfunction in individuals with pathogenic GABRB2 and GABRB3 variants

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of neurological disorders. We aimed to delineate the clinical trajectories associated with gain‐of‐function (GoF) and loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in GABRB2 and GABRB3, and to develop a risk‐prediction model for gross

Functionality of symptoms and interpersonal communication in home video recordings of functional/dissociative versus epileptic seizures

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Conceptualizing functional/dissociative seizures (FDS) as resulting from dissociation, or conversion, we hypothesized that, compared to epileptic seizures (ES), FDS should carry more symbolic or communicative content and that this would allow observers to distinguish FDS from ES.
