A user-focused verification approach for evaluating probability forecasts of binary outcomes (also known as probabilistic classifiers) is demonstrated that is (i) based on proper scoring rules, (ii) focuses on user decision thresholds, and (iii) provides actionable insights.
Applications
Estimation of structure, such as in variable selection, graphical modelling or cluster analysis is notoriously difficult, especially for high-dimensional data.
Methodology
The method's linear algebra-based formulation additionally allows for a variety of optimizations and extensions that make the algorithm practical and viable for real-world data analysis.

StateSpaceModels. jl is an open-source Julia package for modeling, forecasting and simulating time series in a state-space framework.
Computation Optimization and Control
We develop a novel Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method that exploits a hierarchy of models of increasing complexity to efficiently generate samples from an unnormalized target distribution.

The popularity of Bayesian statistical methods has increased dramatically in recent years across many research areas and industrial applications.
Computation
A solution of such inverse problems estimates as a first step the activity emerging within functional networks from EEG or MEG data.
Methodology Neurons and Cognition
In this paper, we develop a Bayesian Markov regime-switching vector autoregressive model to jointly forecast both bus travel time and passenger occupancy with uncertainty.
Applications
For an endangered species such as the blue whale, it is desirable to estimate density and abundance at a finer spatial scale than stratum.
