Jump around: Selecting Markov Chain Monte Carlo parameters and diagnostics for improved food web model quality and ecosystem representation by Gemma Gerber, Ursula M. Scharler

“…However, little information exists on how each LIM-MCMC algorithm parameter affects the degree of empirical data variability introduced into the ensemble. Further, post hoc algorithm quality diagnostics with commonly used trace plots and the coefficient of variation (CoV) rarely address critical aspects of algorithm quality, such as (1) if the returned ensemble successfully targeted the solution space distribution (stationarity), (2) correlation between ensemble solutions (mixing), and (3) if the ensemble contains enough solutions to adequately capture input data variability (sampling efficiency). …”

Modeling the Public Transport Networks: A Study of Their Efficiency by Mary Luz Mouronte-López

“…We have found that this process may be appropriately explained by a generalized linear model (GLM) using local, global, and quasilocal similarity indexes as explanatory variables. In modeling, the response variable was described by a binomial probability density function, and the logit function was used as a link function. …”

The recursive algorithm to construct Dirichlet function by A. N. Lysiuk, S. S. Derechennik

“…The importance of this problem is demonstrated for the procedures processing statistical data, representing the ratio of two discrete variables with a variable denominator. It is found out, that that required number of fractions is equal to the Dirichlet function value at the x point, and the original rule is proposed to construct it, which has a simple geometric interpretation. …”
