Credit: CC0 Public Domain Supreme Court deliberations happen behind closed doors. Can we peek behind them using the voting record? Employing techniques from statistical physics and complexity science, Eddie Lee, a postdoctoral researcher at the Complexity Science Hub, along with his colleague George Cantwell of Cambridge University, analyzed U.S. Supreme Court voting data from 1946 to 2021. …

scDEED assigns a reliability score to each 2D embedding to indicate how much the data point’s mid-range neighbors change in the 2D spaceThe article was co-authored with Christy Lee, Ph.D. student of Statistics at UCLA.Photo by Viktor Forgacs on Unsplasht-SNE (t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding) and UMAP (Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection) are non-linear dimensionality reduction techniques for visualizing high-dimensional data, particularly in the context of single-cell analysis for visualizing cell…

Credit: CC0 Public Domain A global team of researchers has made strides in refining weather forecasting methods, with a specific focus on addressing the persistent issue of "quantile crossing." This phenomenon disrupts the order of predicted values in weather forecasts and arises from the numerical weather prediction (NWP) process—a two-step forecasting method involving observations and atmospheric evolution laws.…

Personalized PCA, a statistical tool capable of distinguishing shared and unique features, can help disentangle complex data from multiple sources, such as smartwatch data. Credit: This image was generated by OpenAI's DALL-E 2, prompted by Naichen Shi. When facing a daunting dataset, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), known as PCA, can help distill complexity by finding a few meaningful features that explain the most…

On the Statistical Analysis of Rounded or Binned DataSheppard’s corrections offer approximations, but errors persist. Analytical bounds provide insight into the magnitude of these errorsPhoto by charlesdeluvio on UnsplashImagine having a list of length measurements in inches, precise to the inch. This list might represent, for instance, the heights of individuals participating in a medical study, forming a sample from a cohort of interest. Our goal is to estimate the average height within this cohort.Consider an…

The Statistical Theory Behind Why Your Instagram Posts Have So Few LikesA handy trick to count uncountable things — from Instagram clout, to penguin population and Man City fans in North LondonImage by StockSnap from PixabayWe have all been there …With hopeful eyes, we framed the Christmas spirit through our iPhone 15 lens, capturing the dinner table with an artist’s persistence and a poet’s soul, each photo a festive vignette brimming with friends, the shimmering glaze of the turkey, and the twinkle of ornaments. We…

This illustration by Benjamin Storer shows oceanic weather systems (mesoscale eddies) from data overlaid with atmospherically driven climate-scale currents (black lines), which can be extracted with a coarse graining technique developed in the lab of Hussein Aluie. The image reveals how these ocean weather systems are energized (red) or weakened (blue) when interacting with climate-scales, which follows a pattern mirroring the global atmospheric…

With the help of this tool, I can get a fairly clear idea of what words I've overused within a document and set about changing some of them to lower the percentage.How do you do it? Let me show you.How to refine your writing with LibreOffice's toolWhat you'll need: To run a statistical analysis of your document, you'll need an up-to-date version of LibreOffice installed on your platform of choice (Linux, MacOS, or Windows) and a document to check. That's it. Let's run that check. The first thing to do is open…
