The approach to analysing compositional data has been dominated by the use of logratio transformations, to ensure exact subcompositional coherence and, in some situations, exact isometry as well. A problem with this approach is that data…
Functional data that are nonnegative and have a constrained integral can be considered as samples of one-dimensional density functions. Such data are ubiquitous. Due to the inherent constraints, densities do not live in a vector space and,…
In compositional data, an observation is a vector with non-negative components which sum to a constant, typically 1. Data of this type arise in many areas, such as geology, archaeology, biology, economics and political science among others.…
In compositional data, detecting which part of the whole delineates heterogeneity is important. The aim is to propose a procedure to quantify this term in the multivariate regression context without abandoning the data's natural…
Scientific studies in the last two decades have established the central role of the microbiome in disease and health. Differential abundance analysis seeks to identify microbial taxa associated with sample groups defined by a factor such as…
Compositional data represent a specific family of multivariate data, where the information of interest is contained in the ratios between parts rather than in absolute values of single parts. The analysis of such specific data is…
Compositional data are contemporarily defined as positive vectors, the ratios among whose elements are of interest to the researcher. Financial statement analysis by means of accounting ratios a.k.a. financial ratios fulfils this definition…
Compositional data and multivariate count data with known totals are challenging to analyse due to the non-negativity and sum-to-one constraints on the sample space. It is often the case that many of the compositional components are highly…
'Big' high-dimensional data are commonly analyzed in low-dimensions, after performing a dimensionality-reduction step that inherently distorts the data structure. For the same purpose, clustering methods are also often used. These methods…
This work is concerned with the recovery of piecewise constant images from noisy linear measurements. We study the noise robustness of a variational reconstruction method, which is based on total (gradient) variation regularization. We show…
High-dimensional compositional data are commonplace in the modern omics sciences amongst others. Analysis of compositional data requires a proper choice of orthonormal coordinate representation as their relative nature is not compatible…
We deal with the shape reconstruction of inclusions in elastic bodies. For solving this inverse problem in practice, data fitting functionals are used. Those work better than the rigorous monotonicity methods from [5], but have no…
We present an approach to statistical data modeling and exploratory data analysis called `LP Statistical Data Science.' It aims to generalize and unify traditional and novel statistical measures, methods, and exploratory tools. This article…
Compositional generalization refers to a model's capability to generalize to newly composed input data based on the data components observed during training. It has triggered a series of compositional generalization analysis on different…
In this work, we present a novel downscaling procedure for compositional quantities based on the Aitchison geometry. The method is able to naturally consider compositional constraints, i.e. unit-sum and positivity. We show that the method…
Compositional data are met in many different fields, such as economics, archaeometry, ecology, geology and political sciences. Regression where the dependent variable is a composition is usually carried out via a log-ratio transformation of…
Microbial communities analysis is drawing growing attention due to the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing techniques nowadays. The observed data has the following typical characteristics: it is high-dimensional, compositional…
Motivated by the challenges in analyzing gut microbiome and metagenomic data, this work aims to tackle the issue of measurement errors in high-dimensional regression models that involve compositional covariates. This paper marks a…

Differential abundance tests in compositional data are essential and fundamental tasks in various biomedical applications, such as single-cell, bulk RNA-seq, and microbiome data analysis. However, because of the compositional constraint and…
