A Markov-switching model for heat waves
Benjamin A. Shaby, Brian J. Reich, Daniel Cooley +1
Heat waves merit careful study because they inflict severe economic and societal damage. We use an intuitive, informal working definition of a heat wave-a persistent event in the t…
Parallelizing Gaussian Process Calculations in R
Christopher J. Paciorek, Benjamin Lipshitz, Wei Zhuo +3
We consider parallel computation for Gaussian process calculations to overcome computational and memory constraints on the size of datasets that can be analyzed. Using a hybrid par…
The Role of the Range Parameter for Estimation and Prediction in Geostatistics
Cari Kaufman, Benjamin Shaby
Two canonical problems in geostatistics are estimating the parameters in a specified family of stochastic process models and predicting the process at new locations. A number of as…
Efficient emulators of computer experiments using compactly supported correlation functions, with an application to cosmology
Cari G. Kaufman, Derek Bingham, Salman Habib +2
Statistical emulators of computer simulators have proven to be useful in a variety of applications. The widely adopted model for emulator building, using a Gaussian process model w…
