Multivariate stable distributions and their applications for modelling cryptocurrency-returns

Authors: Szabolcs Majoros, Andrås Zempléni

arXiv

In this paper we extend the known methodology for fitting stable distributions to the multivariate case and apply the suggested method to the modelling of daily cryptocurrency-return data. The investi...

The Langevin diffusion as a continuous-time model of animal movement and habitat selection

Authors: Théo Michelot, Marie-Pierre Etienne, Pierre Gloaguen

arXiv

1. The utilisation distribution describes the relative probability of use of a spatial unit by an animal. It is natural to think of it as the long-term consequence of the animal's short-term movement...

A neuro-inspired architecture for unsupervised continual learning based on online clustering and hierarchical predictive coding

Authors: Constantine Dovrolis

arXiv

We propose that the Continual Learning desiderata can be achieved through a neuro-inspired architecture, grounded on Mountcastle's cortical column hypothesis. The proposed architecture involves a sing...

Between a ROC and a Hard Place: Using prevalence plots to understand the likely real world performance of biomarkers in the clinic

Authors: B Clare Lendrem, Dennis W Lendrem, Arthur G Pratt, Najib Naamane, Peter McMeekin, Wan-Fai Ng, Joy Allen, Michael Power, John D Isaacs

arXiv

The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve and the Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the ROC curve are widely used to compare the performance of diagnostic and prognostic assays. The ROC curve has...

On The Ignition, Propagation and Termination Of The Neuronal Bursting Activity During Ictogenesis In Epileptic Patients

Authors: Eslam Abbas

arXiv

Epilepsy creates a persistent increase in the probability of spontaneous seizures. An ictal episode evolves due to acute disturbance of the fine-tuned balance between excitatory vs. inhibitory inputs...

Gender Bias in Nobel Prizes

Authors: Per Lunnemann, Mogens H. Jensen, Liselotte Jauffred

arXiv

Strikingly few Nobel laureates within medicine, natural and social sciences are women. Although it is obvious that there are fewer women researchers within these fields, does this gender ratio still f...

Generalized Earthquake Frequency-Magnitude Distribution Described by Asymmetric Laplace Mixture Modelling

Authors: Arnaud Mignan

arXiv

The complete part of the earthquake frequency-magnitude distribution (FMD), above completeness magnitude mc, is well described by the Gutenberg-Richter law. The parameter mc however varies in space du...

International news flows theory revisited through a space-time interaction model

Authors: Claude Grasland

arXiv

This paper proposes a quantitative model of the circulation of foreign news based on a gravity-like model of spatial interaction disaggregated by time, media and countries of interest. The analysis of...

Building Representative Matched Samples with Multi-valued Treatments in Large Observational Studies

Authors: Magdalena Bennett, Juan Pablo Vielma, Jose R. Zubizarreta

arXiv

In this paper, we present a new way of matching in observational studies that overcomes three limitations of existing matching approaches. First, it directly balances covariates with multi-valued trea...

Prediction of Preliminary Maximum Wing Bending Moments under Discrete Gust

Authors: Edouard Fournier, Stéphane Grihon, Christian Bes, Thierry Klein

arXiv

Many methodologies have been proposed to quickly identify among a very large number of flight conditions and maneuvers (i.e., steady, quasi-steady and unsteady loads cases) the ones which give the wor...

A new centered spatio-temporal autologistic regression model. Application to spatio-temporal analysis of esca disease in a vineyard

Authors: Anne Gégout-Petit, Lucia Guérin-Dubrana, Shuxian Li

arXiv

We propose a new centered autologistic spatio-temporal model for binary data on a lattice. The centering allows the interpretation of the autoregression coefficients in separating the large scale stru...
