Return of the ants: investigating temporal and spatial patterns of ant colonization in unsealed schoolyards

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Urban soil unsealing, the removal of impervious surface layers, is increasingly promoted as a habitat restoration strategy to enhance ecosystem resilience in cities. Yet, its potential to support soil biodiversity from the onset remains underexplored.

Likelihood Estimation for Stochastic Differential Equations with Mixed Effects

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stochastic differential equations provide a powerful tool for modelling dynamic phenomena affected by random noise. When time series are observed for several experimental units, it is often the case that some of the parameters vary between the individual experimental units.

Evaluation of Monte Carlo Generation of Continuous Asymmetric Distributions.

open access: yes, 1990
Reliable methods for generating pseudo-random numbers from specific distributions are increasingly important in all branches of applied mathematics. In Monte Carlo studies, generating random variables from specific continuous probability distributions ...

Repelled Point Processes With Application to Numerical Integration

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We look at Monte Carlo numerical integration from a stochastic geometry point of view. While crude Monte Carlo estimators relate to linear statistics of a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), linear statistics of more regularly spread point processes can yield unbiased estimators with faster‐decaying variance, and thus lower integration ...

Serial‐Mediation Study of STEM Outreach Workshops, Cognitive Variables, Identity and Grade‐12 Students' Career Aspirations

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined the direct and indirect effects of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) outreach workshops on Grade 12 students' STEM career‐choice goals. Using a hybrid conceptual framework that combines social cognitive career theory and science identity theory and employing serial mediation analysis, the study ...

Parallel Monte Carlo Trials

open access: yes, 1992
The best results of Monte Carlo methods are generally obtained by performing the same computation many times with different random numbers. We develop a generic algorithm for parallel execution of Monte Carlo trials on a multicomputer.

SMAA‐Based FITradeoff: An Efficient Framework for Pairwise Elicitation in Multicriteria Decision Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Flexible and Interactive Tradeoff Elicitation (FITradeoff) method is a Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making (MADM) approach designed to capture the preferences of a Decision Maker (DM) while minimising cognitive effort. To reduce the frequency of interactions and optimise the preference elicitation process, this paper introduces an innovative ...
