Forecasting the opioid epidemic.

S ince 2000, almost half a million Americans have died from drug overdoses. This modern plague— largely driven by opioid addiction—degrades health, saps productivity, spawns crime, and devastates families, all at enormous societal cost. How did we get here, and what do we do now? About 20 years ago, compassionate advocacy for better treatment of chronic pain, combined with aggressive marketing ...

Spatial heterogeneity in epidemic models.

Spatial heterogeneity is believed to play an important role in the persistence and dynamics of epidemics of childhood diseases because asynchrony between populations within different regions allows global persistence, even if the disease dies out locally. A simple multi-patch (metapopulation) model for spatial heterogeneity in epidemics is analysed and we examine conditions under which patches ...

Probabilistic Weather Forecasting in R

Abstract This article describes two R packages for probabilistic weather forecasting, ensembleBMA, which offers ensemble postprocessing via Bayesian model averaging (BMA), and ProbForecastGOP, which implements the geostatistical output perturbation (GOP) method. BMA forecasting models use mixture distributions, in which each component corresponds to an ensemble member, and the form of the compo...

heterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings

from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...

Consensus Probabilistic Forecasting

To make optimal decisions, end-users of decision support systems require information accurately describing the uncertainty of the underlying weather forecasts. Air temperature, dew point temperature, and wind speed are critical surface weather variables in many economic sectors. The generation of sharp and calibrated probabilistic forecasts and their effective presentation to decision makers ar...
