Modeling Animal Communication Using Multivariate Hawkes Processes with Additive Excitation and Multiplicative Inhibition
Bokgyeong Kang, Erin M. Schliep, Alan E. Gelfand +2
Animal acoustic communication often exhibits temporal dependence, with calls triggering or suppressing subsequent calls within and across call types, individuals, or species. While…
Prior Smoothing for Multivariate Disease Mapping Models
Garazi Retegui, María Dolores Ugarte, Jaione Etxeberria +1
To date, we have seen the emergence of a large literature on multivariate disease mapping. That is, incidence of (or mortality from) multiple diseases is recorded at the scale of a…
Joint space-time modelling for upper daily maximum and minimum temperature record-breaking
Jorge Castillo-Mateo, Zeus Gracia-Tabuenca, Jesús Asín +2
Record-breaking temperature events are now frequently in the news, proffered as evidence of climate change, and often bring significant economic and human impacts. Our previous wor…
Markov modeling for a satellite tag data record of whale diving behavior
Joshua Hewitt, Nicola J. Quick, Alan E. Gelfand +1
Cuvier's beaked whales (Ziphius cavirostris) are the deepest diving marine mammal, consistently diving to depths exceeding 1,000m for durations longer than an hour, making them dif…
