Coccolith clumped isotopes reveal modest rather than extreme northern high latitude amplification during the Miocene [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAccurate predictions of the future climate response to CO2 depend on the ability of climate models to simulate past analog warmer climates, like the Miocene.

Application of porosity logs for cyclostratigraphic analysis in the absence of gamma ray logs [PDF]
Scientific ReportsHigh-resolution cyclostratigraphic and sequence stratigraphic analyses are often compromised and lead to incorrect interpretations due to the unavailability or critical, proven errors in the reference Gamma-Ray (GR) and Density (RHOB) logs in hydrocarbon

Joint inversion of proxy system models to reconstruct paleoenvironmental time series from heterogeneous data [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2020 Paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental reconstructions are fundamentally uncertain because no proxy is a direct record of a single environmental variable of interest; all proxies are indirect and sensitive to multiple forcing factors.

Evaluating the use of body mass index change as a proxy for anorexia nervosa recovery: a machine learning perspective [PDF]
Journal of Eating DisordersThis paper critically examines the study by Brizzi et al., which applied explainable machine learning to predict short-term treatment outcomes in patients hospitalized for anorexia nervosa (AN).

Does a proxy measure up? A framework to assess and convey proxy reliability [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2020 Earth scientists describe a wide range of observational measurements as “proxy measurements”. By referring to such a vast body of measurements simply as “proxy”, researchers dilute significant differences in the various ways that measurements relate to ...

Patch Shortcuts: Interpretable Proxy Models Efficiently Find Black-Box Vulnerabilities [PDF]
2021 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops (CVPRW), 2021 An important pillar for safe machine learning (ML) is the systematic mitigation of weaknesses in neural networks to afford their deployment in critical applications. An ubiquitous class of safety risks are learned shortcuts, i.e. spurious correlations a network exploits for its decisions that have no semantic connection to the actual task.

Stability of ENSO and its tropical Pacific teleconnections over the Last Millennium [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2015 Determining past changes in the amplitude, frequency and teleconnections of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is important for understanding its potential sensitivity to future anthropogenic climate change. Palaeo-reconstructions from proxy records

Comparing proxy and model estimates of hydroclimate variability and change over the Common Era [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2017 Water availability is fundamental to societies and ecosystems, but our understanding of variations in hydroclimate (including extreme events, flooding, and decadal periods of drought) is limited because of a paucity of modern instrumental observations ...

Interpretation of Regressions with Multiple Proxies [PDF]
Review of Economics and Statistics, 2001 We consider the situation in which there are multiple proxies for one unobserved explanatory variable in a linear regression and provide a procedure by which the coefficient of interest can be extracted "post hoc" from a multiple regression in which all the proxies are used simultaneously.

QUINE’S PROXY-FUNCTION ARGUMENT FOR THE INDETERMINACY OF REFERENCE AND FREGE’S CAESAR PROBLEM
Manuscrito, 2021 In his logical foundation of arithmetic, Frege faced the problem that the semantic interpretation of his system does not determine the reference of the abstract terms completely.
