Butterfly and moth habitat specialisation changes along an elevational gradient of tropical forests on Mount Cameroon

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Niche breadth, reflecting the range of environmental conditions or resources a species can exploit, influences its distribution, persistence, vulnerability to environmental change, and interspecific interactions. The elevational niche‐breadth hypothesis predicts broader ecological niches at higher elevations due to increased environmental stress and ...

Filtering Time Series with Penalized Splines

open access: yesStudies in Nonlinear Dynamics & Econometrics, 2011
The decomposition and filtering of time series is an important issue in economics and econometrics and related fields. Even though there are numerous competing methods on the market, in applications one often meets one of the few favorites, like the Hodrick & Prescott filter or the Bandpass filter.

Functional Regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Functional data analysis (FDA) involves the analysis of data whose ideal units of observation are functions defined on some continuous domain, and the observed data consist of a sample of functions taken from some population, sampled on a discrete grid ...

A Machine Learning Approach to Predict Functional Performance From Measurable Protein Structural Characteristics: A Screening Tool for Protein Ingredient Quality

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The food industry is witnessing the emergence of specialized protein‐based functional ingredients for the use as gelling, thickening, and/or emulsifying agents in various food applications. Different sources of protein including species and cultivars, as well as variable processing conditions affect the protein's structural characteristics ...

Nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation of probability densities by penalty function methods [PDF]

open access: yes
When it is known a priori exactly to which finite dimensional manifold the probability density function gives rise to a set of samples, the parametric maximum likelihood estimation procedure leads to poor estimates and is unstable; while the ...

Polar‐low track prediction using machine‐learning methods

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning models are developed to produce reliable and efficient forecasts of polar‐low (PL) trajectories 12 hours ahead. A temporal model (RLSTM) benefiting from the rolling‐forecast strategy, improves overall prediction accuracy and is suitable for quick experimentation, while a spatiotemporal model (PL‐UNet), incorporating both historical and

Non-Standard Semiparametric Regression via BRugs

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2010
We provide several illustrations of Bayesian semiparametric regression analyses in the BRugs package. BRugs facilitates use of the BUGS inference engine from the R computing environment and allows analyses to be managed using scripts.

Partial and Interaction Spline Models for the Semiparametric Estimation of Functions of Several Variables [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
A partial spline model is a model for a response as a function of several variables, which is the sum of a smooth function of several variables and a parametric function of the same plus possibly some other variables.
