We study optimal sample allocation between treatment and control groups under Bayesian linear models. We derive an analytic expression for the Bayes risk, which depends jointly on sample size and covariate mean balance across groups. Under…

This paper introduces a robust approach to functional principal component analysis (FPCA) for relative data, particularly density functions. While recent papers have studied density data within the Bayes space framework, there has been…

Principal component analysis (PCA) is fundamental to statistical machine learning. It extracts latent principal factors that contribute to the most variation of the data. When data are stored across multiple machines, however, communication…
