… For the datasets of Figures 1(b) and 1(c), our jump method correctly chooses K¤ D G D 6
and K¤ D G D 1. For the iris data, it indicates that either two or three clusters is a reasonable …

We develop a flexible model-based procedure for clustering functional data. The technique
can be applied to all types of curve data but is particularly useful when individuals are …

There are two main schools of thought regarding the diet of clupeids, especially those
inhabiting upwelling regions: either that they are herbivorous or that they are omnivorous but …

… (b,a) for all a and b and all j = k. We don’t include an intercept term in this model, because
we center Y, the f … The assumption we are making is that f ∗ …

Over the past 15 years, scientists and disaster responders have increasingly used satellite-based
Earth observations for global rapid assessment of disaster situations. We review global …

… t ∈ T , but in many instances the domains of g j (t) and g l (t) will differ. Second, functions are
… g j (t) and g l (t) are conditionally uncorrelated for every individual value of t but g j (s) and g l …

Biofilms confer protection from adverse environmental conditions and can be reservoirs for
pathogenic organisms and sources of disease outbreaks, especially in medical devices. The …

Glucose levels 2 h after an oral glucose challenge are a clinical measure of glucose tolerance
used in the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. We report a meta-analysis of nine genome-wide …

In this article we are interested in modeling the relationship between a scalar, Y, and a
functional predictor, X(t). We introduce a highly flexible approach called functional adaptive …

Medical researchers interested in temporal, multivariate measurements of complex diseases
have recently begun developing health state models, which divide the space of patient …
