The statistical development of integrated multi-state stopover models
(University of St Andrews, 2016-06-24) - ThesisThis thesis focusses on the analysis of ecological capture-recapture data and the estimation of population parameters of interest. Many of the common models applied to such data, for example the Cormack-Jolly-Seber model, ... -
Randomness as a computational strategy : on matrix and tensor decompositions
(University of St Andrews, 2017-11-20) - ThesisMatrix and tensor decompositions are fundamental tools for finding structure and data processing. In particular, the efficient computation of low-rank matrix approximations is an ubiquitous problem in the area of machine ... -
Incorporating animal movement with distance sampling and spatial capture-recapture
(University of St Andrews, 2018-12-06) - ThesisDistance sampling and spatial capture-recapture are statistical methods to estimate the number of animals in a wild population based on encounters between these animals and scientific detectors. Both methods estimate the ... -
Surveying abundance and stand type associations of Formica aquilonia and F. lugubris (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) nest mounds over an extensive area : Trialing a novel method
(2012-01-03) - Journal articleRed wood ants are ecologically important members of woodland communities, and some species are of conservation concern. They occur commonly only in certain habitats in Britain, but there is limited knowledge of their numbers ... -
Crambled : a Shiny application to enable intuitive resolution of conflicting cellularity estimates
(2015-12-07) - Journal articleIt is now commonplace to investigate tumour samples using whole-genome sequencing, and some commonly performed tasks are the estimation of cellularity (or sample purity), the genome-wide profiling of copy numbers, and the ...
