Filling survey gaps in food security monitoring with spatio-temporal additive Gaussian process models

Emma Kopp, Sahoko Ishida, Rebecca Leygonie +1

Ensuring food security across all regions of a country requires continuous monitoring, yet household surveys often leave significant spatio-temporal gaps due to resource constraint…

Interpreting Learning Under Competing Models: Joint and Stepwise Approaches for Dynamic Cognitive Diagnosis

Yawen Ma, Sahoko Ishida, Kate Cain +1

Digital learning environments record learners' responses to individual items, making it possible to study the development of specific skills rather than overall scores. Drawing con…

Hierarchical additive interaction modelling with Gaussian process prior and its efficient implementation for multidimensional grid data

Sahoko Ishida, Francesca Panero, Wicher Bergsma

Additive Gaussian process (GP) models offer flexible tools for modelling complex non-linear relationships and interaction effects among covariates. While most studies have focused…
