In many modern applications, discretely-observed data may be naturally understood as a set of functions. Functional data often exhibit two confounded sources of variability: amplitude (y-axis) and phase (x-axis). The extraction of amplitude…

When functional data manifest amplitude and phase variations, a commonly-employed framework for analyzing them is to take away the phase variation through a function alignment and then to apply standard tools to the aligned functions. A…

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…

We propose a Bayesian approach to detect multiple change-points in a piecewise-constant signal corrupted by a functional part corresponding to environmental or experimental disturbances. The piecewise constant part (also called segmentation…
