Multivariate spatio-temporal data refers to multiple measurements taken across space and time. For many analyses, spatial and time components can be separately studied: for example, to explore the temporal trend of one variable for a single…

We propose a novel framework for sparse functional clustering that also embeds an alignment step. Sparse functional clustering means finding a grouping structure while jointly detecting the parts of the curves' domains where their grouping…

We develop a new method to locally cluster curves and discover functional motifs, i.e.~typical ``shapes'' that may recur several times along and across the curves capturing important local characteristics. In order to identify these shared…

Calibration is a frequently invoked concept when useful label probability estimates are required on top of classification accuracy. A calibrated model is a function whose values correctly reflect underlying label probabilities. Calibration…

We consider functional linear regression models where functional outcomes are associated with scalar predictors by coefficient functions with shape constraints, such as monotonicity and convexity, that apply to sub-domains of interest. To…

A reduced-rank mixed effects model is developed for robust modeling of sparsely observed paired functional data. In this model, the curves for each functional variable are summarized using a few functional principal components, and the…
