Smoothing migration intensities with P-TOPALS
Demographic Research, 2020 Background: Age-specific migration intensities often display irregularities that need to be removed by graduation, but two current methods for doing so, parametric model migration schedules and non-parametric kernel regression, have their limitations ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Use of nonparametric regression methods for developing a local stem form model
Journal of Forest Science, 2014 A local mean stem curve of spruce was represented using regression splines. Abilities of smoothing spline and P-spline to model the mean stem curve were evaluated using data of 85 carefully measured stems of Norway spruce. For both techniques the optimal

Simultaneous probability statements for Bayesian P-splines [PDF]
Statistical Modelling, 2008 P-splines are a popular approach for fitting nonlinear effects of continuous covariates in semiparametric regression models. Recently, a Bayesian version for P-splines has been developed on the basis of Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation techniques for inference.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Considerable efforts have been dedicated to developing effective treatments for post‐stroke executive impairment (PSEI), among which repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown great potential. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of high‐frequency rTMS on working memory (WM) and response ...

Efficacy of Inebilizumab in N‐MOmentum Trial Participants With or Without Prior Immunosuppressants
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This post hoc analysis examined the impact of prior immunosuppressants on the long‐term efficacy and safety of inebilizumab, a cluster of differentiation 19+ B‐cell–depleting monoclonal antibody, in participants with aquaporin‐4–seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder from the N‐MOmentum trial (NTC02200770).

Semiparametric finite mixture of regression models with Bayesian P-splines
Advances in Data Analysis and Classification, 2022 AbstractMixture models provide a useful tool to account for unobserved heterogeneity and are at the basis of many model-based clustering methods. To gain additional flexibility, some model parameters can be expressed as functions of concomitant covariates.
