🚀 Excited to share new paper led by jhubiostat PhD student Wentao Zhang. We show the limitations of traditional neural networks for geospatial data and introduce a GNN that explicitly models spatial correlations. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… Software: pypi.org/project/geospa…

My paper is now published in Biometrics: academic.oup.com/biometrics/art…. Building off recent work, I develop a fast and exact way to obtain confidence intervals for the constant treatment effect when using the ANCOVA test statistic in a randomization inference framework

Want to use neural networks for geospatial analysis, but not sure how to account for spatial correlation in the data? Check out the package geospaNN (geospatial neural networks) pypi.org/project/geospa… The final version of the paper is also out now. doi.org/10.1080/016214…

New paper! We extend Gaussian process regression to handle distribution-valued covariates. Provably optimal, and not needing the usual density estimation step in distribution regression. Check out this simpler, more direct approach! 📊✨ doi.org/10.1214/24-EJS…

New paper w/ former jhubiostat student Brian Gilbert! We introduce visGP—a visibility-graph-based Gaussian process for spatial analysis in non-convex domains. It preserves Euclidean covariances where valid while incorporating complex domain geometry. doi.org/10.1093/biomtc…
