Why cancer is so prevalent among mammals, despite the fact that some species evolved resistance mechanisms, remains an open question. We hypothesized that cancer prevalence and mortality risk might have been fine-tuned by evolution. Using public databases, we show that species with cooperative habits have lower cancer prevalence and mortality risk. By developing a mathematical model, we provide a

Jointly achieving parsimony and good predictive power in high dimensions is a main challenge in statistics. Nonlocal priors (NLPs) possess appealing properties for model choice, but their use for estimation has not been studied in detail. We show that for regular models NLP-based Bayesian model averaging (BMA) shrink spurious parameters either at fast polynomial or quasi-exponential rates as the s

We use a combination of extreme value statistics, survival analysis and computer-intensive methods to analyse the mortality of Italian and French semi-supercentenarians. After accounting for the effects of the sampling frame, extreme-value modelling leads to the conclusion that constant force of mortality beyond 108 years describes the data well and there is no evidence of differences between coun

This is an update of a prior dataset publication containing baseline and 5-year follow-up data from the PERU MIGRANT Study (PEru's Rural to Urban MIGRANTs Study). The PERU MIGRANT Study was designed to investigate the magnitude of differences between rural-to-urban migrant and non-migrant groups in specific cardiovascular risk factors. Three groups were selected: i) Rural, people who have always h

Optimal designs depend upon a prespecified model form. A popular and effective model-robust alternative is to design with respect to a set of models instead of just one. However, model spaces associated with experiments of interest are often prohibitively large and so algorithmically generated designs are infeasible. Here, we present a simple method that largely eliminates this problem by choosing

Reconstructing a free-form surface from 3-dimensional (3D) noisy measurements is a central problem in inspection, statistical quality control, and reverse engineering. We present a new method for the statistical reconstruction of a free-form surface patch based on 3D point cloud data. The surface is represented parametrically, with each of the three Cartesian coordinates ( x , y , z ) a function o

Technological accidents which are triggered by natural hazards are known as Natechs. In 2017, Hurricane Harvey caused damage to chemical and process facilities, resulting in massive release of hazardous chemicals (toxic, flammable, explosive). The damage was inflicted due to a combination of flooding, rainfall, and strong wind during the hurricane. We have developed a database of 45 Natechs mainly

The goal of statistical matching is the estimation of a joint distribution having observed only samples from its marginals. The lack of joint observations on the variables of interest is the reason of uncertainty about the joint population distribution function. In the present article, the notion of matching error is introduced, and upper-bounded via an appropriate measure of uncertainty. Then, an

Modeling a response over a nonconvex design region is a common problem in diverse areas such as engineering and geophysics. The tools available to model and design for such responses are limited and have received little attention. We propose a new method for selecting design points over nonconvex regions that is based on the application of multidimensional scaling to the geodesic distance. Optimal

Diffusion and flow-driven instability, or transport-driven instability, is one of the central mechanisms to generate inhomogeneous gradient of concentrations in spatially distributed chemical systems. However, verifying the transport-driven instability of reaction–diffusion–advection systems requires checking the Jacobian eigenvalues of infinitely many Fourier modes, which is computationally intra
