Leukocyte Count and Coronary Artery Disease Events in People With Human Immunodeficiency Virus: A Longitudinal Study

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Leukocyte count is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) events in the general population. Here we show that leukocytes are independently associated with CAD events in people with HIV in Switzerland, after adjusting for traditional and HIVrelated r ...

DESI mock challenge Halo and galaxy catalogues with the bias assignment method

Cheng Zhao, Yu Yu, Ginevra Favole

Context. We present a novel approach to the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for large-scale structure analysis based on the distribution of dark matter halos obtained with effective bias models at the field level. Aims. We aim to produce mock galaxy ...

Interventionist estimands in event history analysis

Matias Janvin

The presence of competing events, such as death, makes it challenging to define causal effects on recurrent outcomes. In this thesis, I formalize causal inference for recurrent events, with and without competing events. I define several causal estimands an ...

3-Dimensional Fluid and White Matter Suppression Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequence Accelerated With Compressed Sensing Improves Multiple Sclerosis Cervical Spinal Cord Lesion Detection Compared With Standard 2-Dimensional Imaging

Tobias Kober

Objectives Fluid and white matter suppression (FLAWS) is a recently proposed magnetic resonance sequence derived from magnetization-prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient-echo providing 2 coregistered datasets with white matter- and cerebrospinal fluid-supp ...

High spatial resolution dataset of La Mobiliere insurance customers

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Emanuele Massaro

We present the La Mobiliere insurance customers dataset: a 12-year-long longitudinal collection of data on policies of customers of the Swiss insurance company La Mobiliere. To preserve the privacy of La Mobiliere customers, we propose the data aggregated ...

Angular systematics-free cosmological analysis of galaxy clustering in configuration space

Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor

Galaxy redshift surveys are subject to incompleteness and inhomogeneous sampling due to the various constraints inherent to spectroscopic observations. This can introduce systematic errors on the summary statistics of interest, which need to be mitigated i ...

Local Vulnerabilities and Global Robustness of Coupled Dynamical Systems on Complex Networks

Melvyn Sandy Tyloo

Coupled dynamical systems are omnipresent in everyday life. In general, interactions between individual elements composing the system are captured by complex networks. The latter greatly impact the way coupled systems are functioning and evolving in time. ...

A toolkit for multi-scale mapping of the solar energy-generation potential of buildings in urban environments under uncertainty

Marilyne Andersen, Emmanuel Rey, Giuseppe Peronato, Parag Rastogi

Many municipalities and public authorities have supported the creation of solar cadastres to map the solar energy-generation potential of existing buildings. Despite advancements in modelling solar potential, most of these tools provide simple evaluations ...

The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2016 follow-up campaign - I. Overview and classification of candidates selected by two techniques

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Eduardo Sanchez, Craig Matthew Smith, Hung-Hsu Chan, Riccardo Agnello, Joo Yeon Kim, Augusto Martins Lima, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

The primary goals of the STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) collaboration are to measure the dark energy equation of state parameter and the free streaming length of dark matter. To this aim, STRIDES is discovering strongly lense ...

Contributions to Modelling Extremes of Spatial Data

Linda Frossard

The increasing interest in using statistical extreme value theory to analyse environmental data is mainly driven by the large impact extreme events can have. A difficulty with spatial data is that most existing inference methods for asymptotically justifie ...

Approximate maximum likelihood estimation for population genetic inference

In many population genetic problems, parameter estimation is obstructed by an intractable likelihood function. Therefore, approximate estimation methods have been developed, and with growing computational power, sampling-based methods became popular. Howev ...

Meta-analysis of incomplete microarray studies

Anthony Christopher Davison, Darlene Goldstein, Alix Corinne Josiane Colette Zollinger

Meta-analysis of microarray studies to produce an overall gene list is relatively straightforward when complete data are available. When some studies lack information, for example, having only a ranked list of genes instead of complete primary data, it is ...

Function Computation over Networks : Efficient Information Processing for Cache and Sensor Applications

Chien-Yi Wang

This thesis looks at efficient information processing for two network applications: content delivery with caching and collecting summary statistics in wireless sensor networks. Both applications are studied under the same paradigm: function computation ove ...

Statistical methods for comparing brain connectomes at different scales

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Stephan Morgenthaler, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

Physiological Brain connectivity and spontaneous interaction between regions of interest of the brain can be represented by a matrix (full or sparse) or equivalently by a complex network called connectome. This representation of brain connectivity is adopt ...

Multiple comparisons procedures for complex dependent data with application to study human brain complex network properties

Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

We consider the problem of testing positively dependent multiple hypotheses, assuming that prior information about the dependence structure is available. We propose two-step multiple comparisons procedures that exploit the prior information of the dependen ...

On the relationship between total ozone and atmospheric dynamics and chemistry at mid-latitudes - Part 1: Statistical models and spatial fingerprints of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry

Anthony Christopher Davison, Linda Frossard

We use statistical models for mean and extreme values of total column ozone to analyze "fingerprints" of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry on long-term ozone changes at northern and southern mid-latitudes on grid cell basis. At each grid cell, the r-large ...

Adaptive Strategy for the Statistical Analysis of Connectomes

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Patric Hagmann, Stephan Morgenthaler, Leila Cammoun, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Leila Faiza Ben Hamida Cammoun

We study an adaptive statistical approach to analyze brain networks represented by brain connection matrices of interregional connectivity (connectomes). Our approach is at a middle level between a global analysis and single connections analysis by conside ...

Fusing Loop Detector and Probe Vehicle Data to Estimate Travel Time Statistics on Signalized Urban Networks

André-Gilles Dumont, Ashish Bhaskar

This article presents a methodology that integrates cumulative plots with probe vehicle data for estimation of travel time statistics (average, quartile) on urban networks. The integration reduces relative deviation among the cumulative plots so that the c ...
