Bootstrapping multiple systems estimates to account for model selection

Bernard W. Silverman, Lax Chan, Kyle Vincent

Multiple systems estimation using a Poisson loglinear model is a standard approach to quantifying hidden populations where data sources are based on lists of known cases. Informati…

Multiple Systems Estimation for Sparse Capture Data: Inferential Challenges when there are Non-Overlapping Lists

Lax Chan, Bernard W. Silverman, Kyle Vincent

Multiple systems estimation strategies have recently been applied to quantify hard-to-reach populations, particularly when estimating the number of victims of human trafficking and…

On Bayesian inferential tasks with infinite-state jump processes: efficient data augmentation

Iker Perez, Lax Chan, Mercedes Torres Torres +2

Advances in sampling schemes for Markov jump processes have recently enabled multiple inferential tasks. However, in statistical and machine learning applications, we often require…

Substitution-based sequences with absolutely continuous diffraction

Lax Chan, Uwe Grimm

Modifying Rudin's original construction of the Rudin-Shapiro sequence, we derive a new substitution-based sequence with purely absolutely continuous diffraction spectrum.

Spectrum of a Rudin-Shapiro-like sequence

Lax Chan, Uwe Grimm

We show that a recently proposed Rudin-Shapiro-like sequence, with balanced weights, has purely singular continuous diffraction spectrum, in contrast to the well-known Rudin-Shapir…
