DOI: 10.1002/sim.8925
Abstract: Motivated by inferring cellular signaling networks using noisy flow cytometry data, we develop procedures to draw inference for Bayesian networks based on error-prone data. Two methods for inferring causal relationships between nodes in a network… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jglr.2018.08.004
Abstract: Abstract We evaluated statistical methods for estimating abundances of adult sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) migrating in Great Lakes tributaries. The sea lamprey is the target of a basin-wide, bi-national control program. Abundance estimates from mark-recapture… read more here.

Problems with reductive, polygon‐based methods for estimating species’ ranges: reply to Pimm et al. 2017
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Conservation Biology"
DOI: 10.1111/cobi.12929
Abstract: With colleagues, I critiqued reductive, polygon-based methods for estimating species’ geographic ranges (Peterson et al. 2016). This approach was used in numerous on-the-ground conservation-planning exercises (see, e.g., Ocampo-Peñuela et al. [2016] and references therein), and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3102/1076998620908599
Abstract: Estimating the effects of randomized experiments and, by extension, their mediating mechanisms, is often complicated by treatment noncompliance. Two estimation methods for causal mediation in the presence of noncompliance have recently been proposed, the instrumental… read more here.
