While Morse decomposition summarizes solely the gradient part of a dynamical system, the developed generalization extends to the recurrent component as well. In particular, a chain recurrent set, which is indecomposable in terms of Morse decomposition, can be represented more finely in the Morse predecomposition framework. This generalization is achieved by forgoing the poset structure inherent to Morse decomposition and relaxing the notion of connection between Morse sets (elements of Morse decomposition) in favor of what we term 'links'. We prove that a Morse decomposition is a special case of Morse predecomposition indexed by a poset. Additionally, we show how a Morse predecomposition may be condensed back to retrieve a Morse decomposition.</p>","PeriodicalId":48886,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Theory of Dynamical Systems","volume":"24 1","pages":"5"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11568017/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142648758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two active areas of research for this class of models are identifying influential functional covariates and clustering their relations across observations.

In this paper, we propose a fully Bayesian functional concurrent regression mixture model that simultaneously performs functional variable selection and clustering for subject-specific trajectories. Our approach introduces a novel spiked Ewens-Pitman attraction prior that identifies and clusters subjects' trajectories marginally for each functional covariate while using similarities in subjects' auxiliary covariate patterns to inform clustering allocation. Using simulated data, we evaluate the clustering, variable selection, and parameter estimation performance of our approach and compare its performance with alternative spiked processes. We then apply our method to functional data collected in a novel, smartphone-based smoking cessation intervention study to investigate individual-level dynamic relations between smoking behaviors and potential risk factors.</p>","PeriodicalId":4,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Energy Materials","volume":" ","pages":"1067-1095"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11507269/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43506288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate the applicability of the framework of graphical models for handling missing data to a complex longitudinal pharmacological study of children with HIV treated with an efavirenz-based regimen as part of the CHAPAS-3 trial. Specifically, we examine whether the causal effects of interest, defined through static interventions on multiple continuous variables, can be recovered (estimated consistently) from the available data only. So far, no general algorithms are available to decide on recoverability, and decisions have to be made on a case-by-case basis. We emphasize the sensitivity of recoverability to even the smallest changes in the graph structure, and present recoverability results for three plausible missingness-directed acyclic graphs (m-DAGs) in the CHAPAS-3 study, informed by clinical knowledge. Furthermore, we propose the concept of a \"closed missingness mechanism\": if missing data are generated based on this mechanism, an available case analysis is admissible for consistent estimation of any statistical or causal estimand, even if data are missing not at random. Both simulations and theoretical considerations demonstrate how, in the assumed MNAR setting of our study, a complete or available case analysis can be superior to multiple imputation, and estimation results vary depending on the assumed missingness DAG. Our analyses demonstrate an innovative application of missingness DAGs to complex longitudinal real-world data, while highlighting the sensitivity of the results with respect to the assumed causal model.</p>","PeriodicalId":55357,"journal":{"name":"Biostatistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142649856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our result is obtained utilizing a class of additive processes: the additive normal tempered stable (ATS). This class of processes exhibits an exceptional ability to calibrate the equity volatility surface accurately. We notice that the sub‐class of additive processes that can be obtained with an independent additive subordination is incompatible with market data and shows significantly worse calibration performances than the ATS, especially on short time maturities.
