On a class of norms generated by nonnegative integrable distributions

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2019
We show that any distribution function on ℝd with nonnegative, nonzero and integrable marginal distributions can be characterized by a norm on ℝd+1, called F-norm. We characterize the set of F-norms and prove that pointwise convergence of a sequence of F-

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 ...

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.

Rapid postfire color shift in a Mediterranean lizard

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
We quantified dorsal luminosity and color composition of Psammodromus algirus in burned and adjacent unburned habitats at different times since fire. Lizards inhabiting recently burned areas displayed lighter dorsal coloration, particularly during the early stages of postfire succession, with the effect being more pronounced in larger individuals ...

A finitely stable edit distance for merge trees

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
In this paper, we defined a novel edit distance for merge trees, which we argued to be suitable for a broad range of applications. Relying also on some technical results contained in other works, we investigated its stability properties, which ended up ...

Bridging classical data assimilation and optimal transport: the 3D-Var case [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics
Because optimal transport (OT) acts as displacement interpolation in physical space rather than as interpolation in value space, it can avoid double-penalty errors generated by mislocations of geophysical fields.

S2‐PepAnalyst: A Web Tool for Predicting Plant Small Signalling Peptides

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small signalling peptides (SSPs) serve as crucial mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication in plants, orchestrating diverse physiological processes from development to stress responses. While recent advances in sequencing technologies have improved genome annotation, the identification of novel SSPs remains challenging due to their small size ...

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.

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.
