Integer-valued time series models have been a recurrent theme considered in many papers in the last three decades, but only a few of them have dealt with models on $mathbb Z$ (that is, including both negative and positive integers). Our aim in this paper is to introduce a first-order integer-valued autoregressive process on $mathbb Z$ with skew discrete Laplace marginals (Kozubowski and Inusah, 2006). For this, we define a new operator that acts on two independent latent processes, similarly as made by Freeland (2010). We derive some joint and conditional basic properties of the proposed process such as characteristic function, moments, higher-order moments and jumps. Estimators for the parameters of our model are proposed and their asymptotic normality are established. We run a Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the finite-sample performance of these estimators. In order to illustrate the potentiality of our process, we apply it to a real data set about population increase rates.

An inhomogeneous first--order integer--valued autoregressive (INAR(1)) process is investigated, where the autoregressive type coefficient slowly converges to one. It is shown that the process converges weakly to a Poisson or a compound Poisson distribution.
We propose a novel generalisation to the Student-t Probabilistic Principal Component methodology which: (1) accounts for an asymmetric distribution of the observation data; (2) is a framework for grouped and generalised multiple-degree-of-freedom str uctures, which provides a more flexible approach to modelling groups of marginal tail dependence in the observation data; and (3) separates the tail effect of the error terms and factors. The new feature extraction methods are derived in an incomplete data setting to efficiently handle the presence of missing values in the observation vector. We discuss various special cases of the algorithm being a result of simplified assumptions on the process generating the data. The applicability of the new framework is illustrated on a data set that consists of crypto currencies with the highest market capitalisation.
We propose a latent topic model with a Markovian transition for process data, which consist of time-stamped events recorded in a log file. Such data are becoming more widely available in computer-based educational assessment with complex problem solv ing items. The proposed model can be viewed as an extension of the hierarchical Bayesian topic model with a hidden Markov structure to accommodate the underlying evolution of an examinees latent state. Using topic transition probabilities along with response times enables us to capture examinees learning trajectories, making clustering/classification more efficient. A forward-backward variational expectation-maximization (FB-VEM) algorithm is developed to tackle the challenging computational problem. Useful theoretical properties are established under certain asymptotic regimes. The proposed method is applied to a complex problem solving item in 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA 2012).

Many social and other networks exhibit stable size scaling relationships, such that features such as mean degree or reciprocation rates change slowly or are approximately constant as the number of vertices increases. Statistical network models built on top of simple Bernoulli baseline (or reference) measures often behave unrealistically in this respect, leading to the development of sparse reference models that preserve features such as mean degree scaling. In this paper, we generalize recent work on the micro-foundations of such reference models to the case of sparse directed graphs with non-vanishing reciprocity, providing a dynamic process interpretation of the emergence of stable macroscopic behavior.

We demonstrate a method for localizing where two smooths differ using a true discovery proportion (TDP) based interpretation. The procedure yields a statement on the proportion of some region where true differences exist between two smooths, which re sults from its use of hypothesis tests on groups of basis coefficients underlying the smooths. The methodology avoids otherwise ad hoc means of doing so such as performing hypothesis tests on entire smooths of subsetted data. TDP estimates are 1-$alpha$ confidence bounded simultaneously, assuring that the estimate for a region is a lower bound on the proportion of actual difference, or true discoveries, in that region with high confidence regardless of the number or location of regions estimated. Our procedure is based on closed-testing [Hommel, 1986] and recent results of Goeman and Solari [2011] and Goeman et al [2019]. We develop expressions for the covariance of quadratic forms because of the multiple regression framework in which we use the closed-testing procedure, which are shown to be non-negative in many settings. Our method is well-powered because of a given result on the off-diagonal decay structure of the covariance matrix of penalized B-splines of degree two or less. We demonstrate achievement of estimated TDP and nominal type 1 error rates in simulation and analyze a data set of walking gait of cerebral palsy patients. Keywords: splines; smoothing; multiple testing; closed-testing; simultaneous confidence
