Keep Sensors in Check: Disentangling Country-Level Generalization Issues in Mobile Sensor-Based Models with Diversity Scores

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Lakmal Buddika Meegahapola

Machine learning models trained with passive sensor data from mobile devices can be used to perform various inferences pertaining to activity recognition, context awareness, and health and well-being. Prior work has improved inference performance through t ...

Robust discrete choice models with t-distributed kernel errors

Michel Bierlaire, Thomas Gasos, Prateek Bansal

Outliers in discrete choice response data may result from misclassification and misreporting of the response variable and from choice behaviour that is inconsistent with modelling assumptions (e.g. random utility maximisation). In the presence of outliers, ...

We Need Subject Matter Expertise to Choose and Identify Causal Estimands: Comment on "Estimands for Recurrent Event Endpoints in the Presence of a Terminal Event"

Mats Julius Stensrud, Matias Janvin

We summarize what we consider to be the two main limitations of the "Estimands for Recurrent Event Endpoints in the Presence of a Terminal Event" (Schmidli et al. 2022). First, the authors did not give detailed guidance on how to choose an appropriate esti ...

From Probability Graphical Models to Dynamic Networks — A Bayesian perspective on Smooth Best Estimate of Trajectory with applications in Geodetic Engineering

Laurent Valentin Jospin, Jesse Ray Murray Lahaye

Bayesian statistics is concerned with the integration of new information obtained through observations with prior knowledge, and accordingly, is often related to information theory (Jospin 2022). Recursive Bayesian estimation methods, such as Kalman Filter ...

Perturbation theory models for LSST-era galaxy clustering: Tests with subpercent mock catalog measurements in Fourier and configuration space

Jonathan Andrew Blazek

We analyze the clustering of galaxies using the z = 1.006 snapshot of the CosmoDC2 simulation, a high-fidelity synthetic galaxy catalog designed to validate analysis methods for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). We prese ...

Inter-Individual Variability in Motor Output Is Driven by Recruitment Gain in the Corticospinal Tract Rather Than Motor Threshold

Traian Popa

Variability in the response of individuals to various non-invasive brain stimulation protocols is a major problem that limits their potential for clinical applications. Baseline motor-evoked potential (MEP) amplitude is the key predictor of an individual's ...

Does anodal cerebellar tDCS boost transfer of after-effects from throwing to pointing during prism adaptation?

Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury

Prism Adaptation (PA) is a useful method to study the mechanisms of sensorimotor adaptation. After-effects following adaptation to the prismatic deviation constitute the probe that adaptive mechanisms occurred, and current evidence suggests an involvement ...

On long time behavior of solutions to nonlinear dispersive equations

Stefano Francesco Burzio

In part I, we address the issue of existence of solutions for Cauchy problems involving nonlinear hyperbolic equations for initial data in Sobolev spaces with scaling subcritical regularity. In particular, we analyse nonlinear estimates for null-forms in t ...

Enhancing discrete choice models with representation learning

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin

In discrete choice modeling (DCM), model misspecifications may lead to limited predictability and biased parameter estimates. In this paper, we propose a new approach for estimating choice models in which we divide the systematic part of the utility specif ...

Prediction of Photocurrent in Bifacial Photovoltaic Systems

Arttu Matias Tuomiranta

Motivated by the shift of the photovoltaic (PV) industry towards bifacial solar modules, desert markets, and ever narrower profit margins, this thesis study is aimed at improving the estimation accuracy of the output of bifacial PV systems that are potenti ...
