Geometric overdispersion facilitates the integration of ecological data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Statistical data integration facilitates inference based on the variety of data prevalent in ecology. In particular, integrated distribution models (IDMs) have been proposed for inferring spatial patterns in abundance using combinations of noisy count, presence–absence and presence–only data.

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Pollinator‐targeted annual flower strips increase abundances of pollinators but also natural enemies and herbivores. Natural enemies and herbivores disperse in a taxon‐specific manner into nearby crops. Pest control by ground‐dwellers slightly increases in crop areas near the flower strips.

A new model of biodosimetry to integrate low and high doses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Biological dosimetry, that is the estimation of the dose of an exposure to ionizing radiation by a biological parameter, is a very important tool in cases of radiation accidents.

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Generative AI is increasingly positioned as a peer in collaborative learning, yet its effects on ethical deliberation remain unclear. We report a between‐subjects experiment with university students (N = 217) who discussed an autonomous‐vehicle dilemma in triads under three conditions: human‐only control, supportive AI teammate or contrarian ...

Latent Poisson count models for action count data from technology‐enhanced assessments
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Recent advances in computerized assessments have enabled the use of innovative item formats (e.g., drag‐and‐drop, scenario‐based), necessitating a flexible model that can capture systematic influence of item types on action counts. In this study, we present a refinement scheme that can explicitly model common features of items and allows ...

Geographic distribution of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease hospitalisations in Australia: 2007-08 to 2009-10 [PDF]
, 2013 This report shows how asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) hospitalisations vary across Australia. It also examines the association between these hospitalisation rates and socioeconomic status (SES), remoteness and the proportion of

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 As shown from several long‐term and time‐intensive studies, closely related, sympatric species can impose strong selection on one another, leading to dramatic examples of phenotypic evolution.

On arbitrarily underdispersed Conway-Maxwell-Poisson distributions
, 2020 We show that the Conway--Maxwell--Poisson distribution can be arbitrarily underdispersed when parametrized via its mean. More precisely, if the mean $μ$ is an integer then the limiting distribution is a unit probability mass at $μ$. If the mean $μ$ is not an integer then the limiting distribution is a shifted Bernoulli on the two values $\floorμ$ and $\
