Rank‐based estimation of propensity score weights via subclassification
Abstract Propensity score (PS) weighting estimators are widely used for causal effect estimation and enjoy desirable theoretical properties, such as consistency and potential efficiency under correct model specification. However, their performance can degrade in practice due to sensitivity to PS model misspecification.

Predicting cervical cancer DNA methylation from genetic data using multivariate CMMP
Abstract Epigenetic modifications link the environment to gene expression and play a crucial role in tumour development. DNA methylation, in particular, is gaining attention in cancer research, including cervical cancer, the focus of this study.

Abstract We establish the consistency and the asymptotic distribution of the least squares estimators of the coefficients of a subset vector autoregressive process with exogenous variables (VARX). Using a martingale central limit theorem, we derive the asymptotic normal distribution of the estimators. Diagnostic checking is discussed using kernel‐based

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes
Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.

Non‐negative Gaussian estimation of variance components in random effects models
Abstract When used to estimate variance components (VCs), confidence intervals (CIs) can be truncated at zero, have a point estimate not in the quoted CI, be empty with positive probability, or be all‐inclusive. This is because they have conflicting dual roles, since they are considered to cover the parameter with a specified probability while also ...

We applied the two‐stage, AI‐based TOFSI approach to test automatic pollen recognition with fossil pollen samples. The algorithm performs very well for all major pollen types and other non‐pollen object classes, suggesting that such tools have the potential to substantially increase the efficiency of pollen analysis.

While death remains a popular topic for anthropology, relatively few ethnographic accounts consider the modern bureaucratic processes accompanying it. One such process is public health autopsy, which scholars have largely taken for granted. Existing analysis has regarded it as a form of ‘cultural brokering’ and autopsy reluctance in communities is seen,
