A Bayesian-Weighted Inverse Gaussian Regression Model with Application to Seismological Data by Ehsan Mesdaghi, Afshin Fallah, Rahman Farnoosh, Gholam Hossein Yari

“…In the proposed model, the complementary reciprocal of the location parameter of response variable is considered to be a linear function of the explanatory variables. We developed a fully Bayesian framework to infer about the model parameters based on a general noninformative prior structure and employed a Gibbs sampler to derive the posterior inferences by using the Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. …”

Predicting Thermochemical Equilibria with Interacting Defects: Sr_{1−x}Ce_{x}MnO_{3−δ} Alloys for Water Splitting by Anuj Goyal, Michael D. Sanders, Ryan P. O’Hayre, Stephan Lany

“…One challenge is to quantitatively predict thermochemical equilibria at high concentrations when the redox-active defects start to interact with each other, thereby impeding the formation of additional defects. This problem is of more general importance to applications that rely on high levels of off-stoichiometry or doping, including, for example, batteries, thermoelectrics, and ceramic fuel cells. …”
