Improved methodology and set-point design for diagnosis of model-plant mismatch in control loops using plant-model ratio

Performance of any model-based control scheme depends on the quality of model. When these schemes deliver poor loop performance due to model-plant mismatch (MPM), a detection of the same needs to be in place. A recently introduced plant model ratio (PMR) n ...

Two step multiple comparisons procedures for positively dependent data with application to detecting differences in human brain network topologies

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Stephan Morgenthaler, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

We consider the problem of testing positively dependent multiple hypotheses assuming that a prior information about the dependence structure is available. We propose two-step multiple comparisons procedures that exploit the prior information of the depende ...

Revisiting the Generality of the Rank-based Human Mobility Model

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Darshan Santani

Location-based social networks, in addition to revealing users' online social network, also informs users' actual movements in the offline physical world. Due to this, they have recently been used in large-scale mobility and urban studies. In this paper, u ...

On preferred axes in WMAP cosmic microwave background data after subtraction of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect

Jean-Luc Starck, Anaïs Marie Rassat

There is currently a debate over the existence of claimed statistical anomalies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB), recently confirmed in Planck data. Recent work has focussed on methods for measuring statistical significance, on masks and on seconda ...

Next step: on the validation of the Q index to identify optimal locations for economic activities

Stéphane Joost, Olivier Monod

The present study proposes a validation of a mathematical index Q able to identify optimal geographic places for economic activities, solely based on the location variable. This research work takes its roots in the 1970s with the statistical analysis of sp ...

Model-fitting in the presence of outliers

Jayakrishnan Unnikrishnan

We study the problem of parametric model-fitting in a finite alphabet setting. We characterize the weak convergence of the goodness-of-fit statistic with respect to an exponential family when the observations are drawn from some alternate distribution. We ...

Applying the Multivariate Time-Rescaling Theorem to Neural Population Models

Joao Emanuel Felipe Gerhard

Statistical models of neural activity are integral to modern neuroscience. Recently interest has grown in modeling the spiking activity of populations of simultaneously recorded neurons to study the effects of correlations and functional connectivity on ne ...

Digital Urban Morphometrics: Automatic Extraction and Assessment of Morphological Properties of Buildings

François Golay, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro

The aim of this article is to present a method to calculate the morphological properties of the built environment using LiDAR (light-detection and ranging) data, geographic information systems (GIS) data and three-dimensional (3D) models of cities as a sou ...

Measures of Surprise and Threshold Selection in Extreme Value Statistics

Irene Vicari

Measures of surprise have been recently studied in statistics. This new concept can be used as the first exploratory tool to verify if a model under the null hypothesis fits appropriately. As no alternative models are necessary, the use of the measures of ...
