Factor analysis has been extensively used to reveal the dependence structures among multivariate variables, offering valuable insight in various fields. However, it cannot incorporate the spatial heterogeneity that is typically present in…
Health surveys provide valuable information for monitoring population health, identifying risk factors and informing public health policies. Most of the questions included are coded as ordinal variables and organized into thematic blocks.…
As big data continues to grow, statistical inference for multivariate functional data (MFD) has become crucial. Although recent advancements have been made in testing the equality of mean functions, research on testing linear hypotheses for…
This paper provides an overview of three notable approaches for detecting anomalies in spatio-temporal data. The three review methods are selected from the framework of multivariate statistical process control (SPC), scan statistics, and…
The clustering for functional data with misaligned problems has drawn much attention in the last decade. Most methods do the clustering after those functional data being registered and there has been little research using both functional…
Nonparametric tests for functional data are a challenging class of tests to work with because of the potentially high dimensional nature of the data. One of the main challenges for considering rank-based tests, like the Mann-Whitney or…
We present an efficient score statistic, called the $\textsf{S}^3 \textsf{T}$ statistic, to detect the emergence of a spatially and temporally correlated signal from either fixed-sample or sequential data. The signal may cause a men shift…
This study presents the development of multivariate functional Moran's I, along with a novel approach termed multivariate functional areal spatial principal component analysis (mfasPCA), specifically designed for analyzing functional areal…
This article presents an empirical validation of the functional multidimensional scaling model, a novel approach that improves the smoothness of time-varying dissimilarities in a low-dimensional space, embedding a modified Adam stochastic…
We consider an analysis of variance type problem, where the sample observations are random elements in an infinite dimensional space. This scenario covers the case, where the observations are random functions. For such a problem, we propose…
Extending rank-based inference to a multivariate setting such as multiple-output regression or MANOVA with unspecified d-dimensional error density has remained an open problem for more than half a century. None of the many solutions…
As high-dimensional and high-frequency data are being collected on a large scale, the development of new statistical models is being pushed forward. Functional data analysis provides the required statistical methods to deal with large-scale…
Investigating relationships between response variables and covariates in areas such as environmental science, geoscience, and public health is an important endeavor. Based on a Bayesian mixture of finite mixtures model, we present a novel…
In this paper we propose methods for inference of the geometric features of a multivariate density. Our approach uses multiscale tests for the monotonicity of the density at arbitrary points in arbitrary directions. In particular, a…
Clustering analysis of functional data, which comprises observations that evolve continuously over time or space, has gained increasing attention across various scientific disciplines. Practical applications often involve functional data…
There has been a wide interest to extend univariate and multivariate nonparametric procedures to clustered and hierarchical data. Traditionally, parametric mixed models have been used to account for the correlation structures among the…

We formulate a novel technique for the detection of functional clusters in discrete event data. The advantage of this algorithm is that no prior knowledge of the number of functional groups is needed, as our procedure progressively combines…
Prompted by modern technologies in data acquisition, the statistical analysis of spatially distributed function-valued quantities has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. In particular, combinations of functional variables and…
Change-plane analysis is a pivotal tool for identifying subgroups within a heterogeneous population, yet it presents challenges when applied to functional data. In this paper, we consider a change-plane model within the framework of…
