Does a proxy measure up? A framework to assess and convey proxy reliability [PDF]

open access: yesClimate 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 ...

Stability of ENSO and its tropical Pacific teleconnections over the Last Millennium [PDF]

open access: yesClimate 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

Interpretation of Regressions with Multiple Proxies [PDF]

open access: yesReview 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.

Palaeogeographic controls on climate and proxy interpretation [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2015
Abstract. During the period from approximately 150 to 35 million years ago, the Cretaceous–Paleocene–Eocene (CPE), the Earth was in a "greenhouse" state with little or no ice at either pole. It was also a period of considerable global change, from the warmest periods of the mid Cretaceous, to the threshold of icehouse conditions at the end of the ...

Patch Shortcuts: Interpretable Proxy Models Efficiently Find Black-Box Vulnerabilities [PDF]

open access: yes2021 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.
