Consider the problem when $X_1,X_2,..., X_n$ are distributed on a circle following an unknown distribution $F$ on $S^1$. In this article we have consider the absolute general set-up where the density can have local features such as…

Accurate reconstruction of probability density functions (PDFs) from data is essential in engineering applications. Classical global moment-based polynomial approximations often suffer from oscillations, instability in the tails, and…

We present a structured additive regression approach to model conditional densities given scalar covariates, where only samples of the conditional distributions are observed. This links our approach to distributional regression models for…

Many physical datasets are generated by collections of instruments that make measurements at regular time intervals. For such regular monitoring data, we extend the framework of half-spectral covariance functions to the case of…

Regression with compositional responses is challenging due to the nonlinear geometry of the simplex and the limitations of Euclidean methods. We propose a regression framework for manifold-valued data based on mappings to statistically…

Density-based clustering methodology has been widely considered in the statistical literature for classifying Euclidean observations. However, this approach has not been contemplated for directional data yet. In this work, directional…

Large spatial datasets often represent a number of spatial point processes generated by distinct entities or classes of events. When crossed with covariates, such as discrete time buckets, this can quickly result in a data set with millions…

We introduce a novel approach to compositional data analysis based on $L^{\infty}$-normalization, addressing challenges posed by zero-rich high-throughput data. Traditional methods like Aitchison's transformations require excluding zeros,…

The need for regression models to predict circular values arises in many scientific fields. In this work we explore a family of expressive and interpretable distributions over circle-valued random functions related to Gaussian processes…

Density regression characterizes the conditional density of the response variable given the covariates, and provides much more information than the commonly used conditional mean or quantile regression. However, it is often computationally…

It is well known that the minimax rates of convergence of nonparametric density and regression function estimation of a random variable measured with error is much slower than the rate in the error free case. Surprisingly, we show that if…

Modern datasets across many disciplines increasingly consist of time-evolving, potentially infinite-dimensional random objects, such as dynamic functional data, which are naturally modeled in Hilbert spaces. In these settings,…

Ongoing advances in microbiome profiling have allowed unprecedented insights into the molecular activities of microbial communities. This has fueled a strong scientific interest in understanding the critical role the microbiome plays in…

Penalized B-splines are routinely used in additive models to describe smooth changes in a response with quantitative covariates. It is typically done through the conditional mean in the exponential family using generalized additive models…

Based on a novel dynamic Whittle likelihood approximation for locally stationary processes, a Bayesian nonparametric approach to estimating the time-varying spectral density is proposed. This dynamic frequency-domain based likelihood…

Optimal design facilitates intelligent data collection. In this paper, we introduce a fully Bayesian design approach for spatial processes with complex covariance structures, like those typically exhibited in natural ecosystems. Coordinate…

Observations made in continuous time are often irregular and contain the missing values across different channels. One approach to handle the missing data is imputing it using splines, by fitting the piecewise polynomials to the observed…

Observational time series data often exhibit both cyclic temporal trends and autocorrelation and may also depend on covariates. As such, there is a need for flexible regression models that are able to capture these trends and model any…

Periodic splines are a special kind of splines that are defined over a set of knots over a circle and are adequate for solving interpolation problems related to closed curves. This paper presents a method of implementing the objects…

This paper presents a novel approach to functional principal component analysis (FPCA) in Bayes spaces in the setting where densities are the object of analysis, but only few individual samples from each density are observed. We use the…
