A generalization of the negative binomial distribution
Background & Aim: Consider a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials with p denoting the probability of success at each trial. With this definition, the probability that the nth success proceed by r failures follows the negative binomial distribution ...

Abstract This article presents a strategy for conducting regression analysis of zero‐truncated recurrent event data. The research is partly motivated by a pediatric mental health care (PMHC) program based on administrative data. We are particularly interested in how the occurrence of an event depends on its past occurrences and the associated ...

Abstract Homogeneous normalized random measures with independent increments represent a broad class of Bayesian nonparametric priors and thus are widely used. In this article, we obtain the strong law of large numbers, the central limit theorem (CLT), and the functional central limit theorem (fCLT) of such measures when the concentration parameter a ...

Sparse maximum likelihood estimation of regression models
Abstract For regression model selection and estimation, we study a small set of candidate models of maximum likelihood from which all information criteria such as the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) choose their models.

Abstract Irregular observation times are common in longitudinal observational studies and can affect causal inferences. We use data from electronic health records of Kaiser Permanente Washington patients in the United States who initiated an antidepressant medication between 2008 and 2018, with a confirming diagnosis of depression. We are interested in

A Geometric Characterization of Steady Laminar Flow
ABSTRACT We study the steady states of the Euler equations on the periodic channel or annulus. We show that if these flows are laminar (layered by closed non‐contractible streamlines which foliate the domain), then they must be either parallel or circular flows.

ABSTRACT This study analyzes the evolution of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) disclosure among IBEX 35 companies between 2018 and 2023, combining natural language processing for disclosure measurement with negative binomial generalized linear mixed models incorporating financial and governance controls.
