Monte Carlo Techniques in Studying Robust Estimators [PDF]
Recent work on robust estimation has led to many procedures, which are easy to formulate and straightforward to program but difficult to study analytically.

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the interplay between climate change, violent conflict and forced migration in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), focusing on asylum flows to the European Union (EU). By integrating high‐resolution climate, conflict and socioeconomic data spanning 2000 to 2023, we develop a comprehensive empirical framework to ...

Small, EarlyView.Thermal instability mechanisms governing novel Al‐based PVD/ALD nanocomposites are uncovered through synchrotron XRD, STEM, APT, and micromechanical testing. Temperature‐dependent crystallite evolution reveals a defined stability window before degradation dominates, offering new insight into the design of thermally robust, functional Al‐based ...

Self‐Assembly of a Colloidal Honeycomb Crystal in Silico for Topological Valley Photonics
Small, EarlyView.The self‐assembly of a colloidal honeycomb crystal is demonstrated in computer simulations, using an assembly strategy that not only suppresses the formation of real‐space topological defects observed experimentally but also yields topological photonic properties in reciprocal space.

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Continuous authentication (CA) systems based on behavioural biometrics are increasingly deployed in zero‐trust architectures, yet their performance degrades over time due to natural behavioural drift arising from device changes, fatigue and evolving habits.

Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.Abstract We estimate the price impact of very nearby concurrently listed properties in the Sydney housing market and assess their competition effects. We apply a hedonic model with spatiotemporal effects regularized via a graph Laplacian prior at the month‐by‐SA2 regional level to seven SA4 subregions of metropolitan Sydney. The model structure enables

Geodesic Monte Carlo on Embedded Manifolds [PDF]
, 2013 Markov chain Monte Carlo methods explicitly defined on the manifold of probability distributions have recently been established. These methods are constructed from diffusions across the manifold and the solution of the equations describing geodesic flows

Insect Science, EarlyView.Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for state-space models with point process observations [PDF]
, 2012 This letter considers how a number of modern Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods can be applied for parameter estimation and inference in state-space models with point process observations.
