Conditional Variable Importance for Random Forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Random forests are becoming increasingly popular in many scientific fields because they can cope with ``small n large p'' problems, complex interactions and even highly correlated predictor variables. Their variable importance measures have recently been

Random ultrametric trees and applications*

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2017
Ultrametric trees are trees whose leaves lie at the same distance from the root. They are used to model the genealogy of a population of particles co-existing at the same point in time.

Random Walks and Trees [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings, 2011
These notes provide an elementary and self-contained introduction to branching ran- dom walks. Section 1 gives a brief overview of Galton-Watson trees, whereas Section 2 presents the classical law of large numbers for branching random walks. These two short sections are not exactly in- dispensable, but they introduce the idea of using size-biased trees,

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Critical random graphs : limiting constructions and distributional properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n, p) inside the critical window, where p = 1/n + lambda n(-4/3) for some lambda is an element of R. We proved in Addario-Berry et al.

Random walk on the range of random walk [PDF]

open access: yes
We study the random walk X on the range of a simple random walk on ℤ d in dimensions d≥4. When d≥5 we establish quenched and annealed scaling limits for the process X, which show that the intersections of the original simple random walk path are ...

Influencing Elections with Statistics: Targeting Voters with Logistic Regression Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Political campaigning has become a multi-million dollar business. A substantial proportion of a campaign's budget is spent on voter mobilization, i.e., on identifying and influencing as many people as possible to vote.

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

Random walks on Galton-Watson trees with infinite variance offspring distribution conditioned to survive [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We establish a variety of properties of the discrete time simple random walk on a Galton-Watson tree conditioned to survive when the offspring distribution, Z say, is in the domain of attraction of a stable law with index alpha is an element of (1,2]. In

Classification of Alpine Skiing Styles Using GNSS and Inertial Measurement Units

open access: yesSensors, 2020
In alpine skiing, four commonly used turning styles are snowplow, snowplow-steering, drifting and carving. They differ significantly in speed, directional control and difficulty to execute.
