Surgical tagging of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus): electroanaesthesia and survival in captivity and the field

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Electroanaesthesia using electric fish handling gloves induced rapid and reversible sedation of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) during surgical tagging without observable adverse effects on behaviour or tag retention. In the laboratory, survival analyses revealed that longer handling times and smaller body sizes significantly reduced ...

Distributionally Robust Energy Optimization with Renewable Resource Uncertainty

open access: yesMathematics
With the increasing prevalence of intermittent power generation, the volatility, intermittency, and randomness of renewable energy pose significant challenges to the planning and operation of distribution networks.

Sharp asymptotic and finite-sample rates of convergence of empirical measures in Wasserstein distance

open access: yes, 2017
The Wasserstein distance between two probability measures on a metric space is a measure of closeness with applications in statistics, probability, and machine learning.

Validation of machine learning based scenario generators

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Machine learning (ML) methods are becoming increasingly important for designing economic scenario generators for internal models. Validating data‐driven models requires different methods than validating classical, theory‐based models. We discuss two novel aspects of such validation: first, checking the multivariate distribution of risk factors,

Density‐Valued ARMA Models by Spline Mixtures

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel framework for modeling time series of probability density functions by extending autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models to density‐valued data. The method is based on a transformation approach, wherein each density function on a compact domain [0,1]d$$ {\left[0,1\right]}^d $$ is approximated by a B‐spline ...

Vietoris–Rips metric thickenings and Wasserstein spaces

open access: yes, 2020
If the vertex set, X, of a simplicial complex, K, is a metric space, then K can be interpreted as a subset of the Wasserstein space of probability measures on X. Such spaces are called simplicial metric thickenings, and a prominent example is the Vietoris–Rips metric thickening.

Testing Distributional Granger Causality With Entropic Optimal Transport

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a novel nonparametric test for Granger causality in distribution based on entropic optimal transport. Unlike classical mean‐based approaches, the proposed method directly compares the full conditional distributions of a response variable with and without the history of a candidate predictor.

Optimal transport on gas networks

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Applied Mathematics
Optimal transport tasks naturally arise in gas networks, which include a variety of constraints such as physical plausibility of the transport and the avoidance of extreme pressure fluctuations. To define feasible optimal transport plans, we utilize a

A note on the Bures-Wasserstein metric

open access: yes, 2023
In this brief note, it is shown that the Bures-Wasserstein (BW) metric on the space positive definite matrices lends itself to convex optimization. In other words, the computation of the BW metric can be posed as a convex optimization problem. In turn, this leads to efficient computations of (i) the BW distance between convex subsets of positive ...
