ABSTRACT Composite endpoints that combine recurrent non‐fatal events with a terminal event are increasingly used in randomized clinical trials, yet conventional time‐to‐first event analyses may obscure clinically relevant information. We compared two statistical frameworks tailored to such endpoints: the joint frailty model (JFM) and the last‐event ...

ABSTRACT Although homoscedasticity is often assumed in linear regression, real data may show variance patterns or residual structures that violate this assumption. We propose VarGuid, a variance‐guided framework for two related settings: Covariate‐dependent conditional variance under a global linear mean model, and residual nonlinear mean structure ...

Polarized neutron powder diffraction is used to qualitatively probe the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of cobalt‐doped ferrite nanoparticles. The analysis of local magnetic susceptibility tensors and magnetization ellipsoids reveals how cobalt incorporation modifies both the magnitude and orientation of anisotropy, providing a new approach to compare ...

ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of air quality regulations targeting fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on farmland values in corn and soybean producing counties in the United States over the period 1997–2022. Using self‐reported farmland value data from the Agricultural Census and county‐level pollution classifications provided by the Environmental ...

Adaptive Weighted Total Variation Penalty for Precise Change Point Detection
ABSTRACT Total variation (TV)‐based methods, such as the fused lasso, are standard for change point detection but are impaired by issues like local monotonicity. To address these limitations, this study comparatively analyses the fused lasso with two alternative methodologies.
