The acquisition of survey responses is a crucial component in conducting research aimed at comprehending public opinion. However, survey data collection can be arduous, time-consuming, and expensive, with no assurance of an adequate…
We propose protocols for acquiring speech materials, making them reusable for future investigations, and presenting them for subjective experiments. We also provide means to evaluate existing speech materials' compatibility with target…
This review discusses the paper ''A Tale of Two Datasets: Representativeness and Generalisability of Inference for Samples of Networks'' by Krivitsky, Coletti, and Hens, published in the Journal of the American Statistical Association in…
Many real-world networks are theorized to have core-periphery structure consisting of a densely-connected core and a loosely-connected periphery. While this phenomenon has been extensively studied in a range of scientific disciplines, it…
Letter to the Editor: Some comments on "On construction of the smallest one-sided confidence interval for the difference of two proportions" by Weizhen Wang [arXiv:1002.4945].
Shafer (2021) offers a betting perspective on statistical testing which may be useful for foundational debates, given that disputes over such testing continue to be intense. To be helpful for researchers, however, this perspective will need…
The idea of the Lehmann Symposia as platforms to encourage a revival of interest in fundamental questions in theoretical statistics, while keeping in focus issues that arise in contemporary interdisciplinary cutting-edge scientific…
We consider statistical inference in high-dimensional regression problems under affine constraints on the parameter space. The theoretical study of this is motivated by the study of genetic determinants of diseases, such as diabetes, using…
The success of large language models has driven interest in developing similar speech processing capabilities. However, a key challenge is the scarcity of high-quality spontaneous speech data, as most existing datasets contain scripted…
This is the text of a lecture at the Logic Conference in Memory of Stanley Tennenbaum at the CUNY Graduate Center on April 7, 2006.
As a social science information service for the German language countries, we document research projects, publications, and data in relevant fields. At the same time, we aim to provide well-founded bibliometric studies of these fields.…
Discussion of "On the Birnbaum Argument for the Strong Likelihood Principle" by Deborah G. Mayo [arXiv:1302.7021].
Student mental health is a sensitive issue that necessitates special attention. A primary concern is the student-to-counselor ratio, which surpasses the recommended standard of 250:1 in most universities. This imbalance results in extended…
The present volume is a Festschrift for Mike Keane, on the occasion of his 65th birthday on January 2, 2005. It contains 29 contributions by Mike's closest colleagues and friends, covering a broad range of topics in Dynamics and…
This is a discussion of the paper "Safe testing" by Gr\"unwald, de Heide, and Koolen, Read before The Royal Statistical Society at a meeting organized by the Research Section on Wednesday, 24 January, 2024
The Leiden Ranking 2011/2012 provides the Proportion top-10% publications (PP top 10%) as a new indicator. This indicator allows for testing the difference between two ranks for statistical significance.
Qualitative interactions occur when a treatment effect or measure of association varies in sign by sub-population. Of particular interest in many biomedical settings are absence/presence qualitative interactions, which occur when an effect…
With the evolution of the concept of Speaker diarization using LSTM, it is relatively easier to understand the speaker identities for specific segments of input audio stream data than manually tagging the data. With such a concept, it is…
Pretrained contextualized text encoders are now a staple of the NLP community. We present a survey on language representation learning with the aim of consolidating a series of shared lessons learned across a variety of recent efforts.…
