The generalized underlap coefficient with an application in clustering

Zhaoxi Zhang, Vanda Inácio, Sara Wade

Quantifying distributional separation across groups is fundamental in statistical learning and scientific discovery, yet most classical discrepancy measures are tailored to two-gro…

Bayesian dependent mixture models: A predictive comparison and survey

Sara Wade, Vanda Inacio, Sonia Petrone

For exchangeable data, mixture models are an extremely useful tool for density estimation due to their attractive balance between smoothness and flexibility. When additional covari…

Shared Differential Clustering across Single-cell RNA Sequencing Datasets with the Hierarchical Dirichlet Process

Jinlu Liu, Sara Wade, Natalia Bochkina

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is powerful technology that allows researchers to understand gene expression patterns at the single-cell level. However, analysing scRNA-seq…

Bayesian nonparametric scalar-on-image regression via Potts-Gibbs random partition models

Mica Teo Shu Xian, Sara Wade

Scalar-on-image regression aims to investigate changes in a scalar response of interest based on high-dimensional imaging data. We propose a novel Bayesian nonparametric scalar-on-…

Enriched Mixtures of Gaussian Process Experts

Charles W. L. Gadd, Sara Wade, Alexis Boukouvalas

Mixtures of experts probabilistically divide the input space into regions, where the assumptions of each expert, or conditional model, need only hold locally. Combined with Gaussia…

Colombian Women's Life Patterns: A Multivariate Density Regression Approach

Sara Wade, Raffaella Piccarreta, Andrea Cremaschi +1

Women in Colombia face difficulties related to the patriarchal traits of their societies and well-known conflict afflicting the country since 1948. In this critical context, our ai…

Posterior Inference for Sparse Hierarchical Non-stationary Models

Karla Monterrubio-Gómez, Lassi Roininen, Sara Wade +2

Gaussian processes are valuable tools for non-parametric modelling, where typically an assumption of stationarity is employed. While removing this assumption can improve prediction…

Pseudo-marginal Bayesian inference for supervised Gaussian process latent variable models

Charles Gadd, Sara Wade, Akeel Shah +1

We introduce a Bayesian framework for inference with a supervised version of the Gaussian process latent variable model. The framework overcomes the high correlations between laten…
