A Statistical Model for Helices with Applications [PDF]
Biometrics, 2018 Summary Motivated by a cutting edge problem related to the shape of -helices in proteins, we formulate a parametric statistical model, which incorporates the cylindrical nature of the helix. Our focus is to detect a “kink,” which is a drastic change in the axial direction of the helix.

An application of statistics to comparative metagenomics [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2006 Abstract Background Metagenomics, sequence analyses of genomic DNA isolated directly from the environments, can be used to identify organisms and model community dynamics of a particular ecosystem. Metagenomics also has the potential to identify significantly different metabolic potential in different environments.

Restricted Covariance Priors with Applications in Spatial Statistics [PDF]
, 2015 We present a Bayesian model for area-level count data that uses Gaussian random effects with a novel type of G-Wishart prior on the inverse variance--covariance matrix.

Delta method in large deviations and moderate deviations for estimators [PDF]
, 2011 The delta method is a popular and elementary tool for deriving limiting distributions of transformed statistics, while applications of asymptotic distributions do not allow one to obtain desirable accuracy of approximation for tail probabilities.

Genetic Algorithms for the Imitation of Genomic Styles in Protein Backtranslation [PDF]
, 2003 Several technological applications require the translation of a protein into a nucleic acid that codes for it (``backtranslation''). The degeneracy of the genetic code makes this translation ambiguous; moreover, not every translation is equally viable ...

Moment ideals of local Dirac mixtures
, 2020 In this paper we study ideals arising from moments of local Dirac measures and their mixtures. We provide generators for the case of first order local Diracs and explain how to obtain the moment ideal of the Pareto distribution from them.

The near-extreme density of intraday log-returns [PDF]
, 2011 The extreme event statistics plays a very important role in the theory and practice of time series analysis. The reassembly of classical theoretical results is often undermined by non-stationarity and dependence between increments.
