Difference-in-differences (DiD) is a cornerstone of causal inference, yet extending it to functional outcomes is not a routine scalar generalization; rather, it entails three fundamental challenges in identification, inference, and…

The decay behavior of the specific intensity is studied for the spatial-frequency domain imaging (SFDI). It is shown using the radiative transport equation that the decay is given by a superposition of different decay modes, and the decay…

Precision medicine is a promising framework for generating evidence to improve health and health care. Yet, a gap persists between the ever-growing number of statistical precision medicine strategies for evidence generation and…

We consider the problem of estimating a spatially varying density function, motivated by problems that arise in large-scale radiological survey and anomaly detection. In this context, the density functions to be estimated are the background…

In this paper, we examine the averaging effect of a highly oscillating external force on the solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. We show that, as long as the force time-average decays over time, if the frequency and amplitude of the…
