Observer-Based Source Localization in Tree Infection Networks via Laplace Transforms

Kesler O'Connor, Julia M. Jess, Devlin Costello +1

We address the problem of localizing the source of infection in an undirected, tree-structured network under a susceptible-infected outbreak model. The infection propagates with in…

Conditional Independence Estimates for the Generalized Nonparanormal

Ujas Shah, Manuel Lladser, Rebecca Morrison

For general non-Gaussian distributions, the covariance and precision matrices do not encode the independence structure of the variables, as they do for the multivariate Gaussian. T…

Metric Dimension and Resolvability of Jaccard Spaces

Manuel E. Lladser, Alexander J. Paradise

A subset of points in a metric space is said to resolve it if each point in the space is uniquely characterized by its distance to each point in the subset. In particular, resolvin…

Sparsification of Large Ultrametric Matrices: Insights into the Microbial Tree of Life

Evan D. Gorman, Manuel E. Lladser

Ultrametric matrices have a rich structure that is not apparent from their definition. Notably, the subclass of strictly ultrametric matrices are covariance matrices of certain wei…
