COSDA-UPC - COmpositional and Spatial Data Analysis

 

Desenvolupament i aplicació de tècniques adequades pel tractament de de dades composicionals i espacials.
La particular naturalesa de les dades composicionals i espacials requereix mètodes i tècniques estadístiques específiques. En les línies de recerca teòriques es treballa des de la generalització de distribucions pròpies fins al desenvolupament de models lineals generalitzats i estructurals. Els balanços principals i els mètodes d’agrupació són eines específiques de reducció de la dimensió, les quals s'apliquen una vegada les dades han estat preprocessades amb tècniques com el tractament de valors en la frontera de l’espai mostral. Aquest conjunt de mètodes s'utilitzen en estudis en altres camps del coneixement, dels quals sorgeixen reptes que estimulen el progrés de les línies de recerca. Les activitats de recerca es completen amb accions per a la formació de nous investigadors, la transferència i la difusió; entre les quals en destaquem: el paquet estadístic propi CoDaPack, el curs CoDaCourse, el taller internacional CoDaWork, i el domini d’internet CoDaWeb.

    Article
    Open Access
    The characterization of future wave-storms and their relationship to large-scale climate can provide useful information for environmental or urban planning at coastal areas. A hybrid methodology (process-based and statistical) ...

  • Multi-allelic exact tests for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium that account for gender 

    Graffelman, Jan; Weir, B.S. (Wiley, 2018-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Statistical tests for Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium are important elementary tools in genetic data analysis. X-chromosomal variants have long been tested by applying autosomal test procedures to females only, and gender is ...

  • Microbiome datasets are compositional: and this is not optional 

    Gloor, Gregory B.; Macklaim, Jean M.; Pawlowsky Glahn, Vera; Egozcue Rubí, Juan José (2017-11)
    Article
    Open Access
    Datasets collected by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of 16S rRNA gene amplimers, metagenomes or metatranscriptomes are commonplace and being used to study human disease states, ecological differences between sites, and ...

  • A bayesian test for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium of bi-allelic X-chromosomal markers 

    Puig Oriol, Xavier; Ginebra Molins, Josep; Graffelman, Jan (2017-07)
    Article
    Open Access
    The X chromosome is a relatively large chromosome, harboring a lot of genetic information. Much of the statistical analysis of X-chromosomal information is complicated by the fact that males only have one copy. Recently, ...

  • Modified Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of goodness of fit 

    Monti, Gianna S.; Mateu Figueras, Gloria; Ortego Martínez, María Isabel; Pawlowsky Glahn, Vera; Egozcue Rubí, Juan José (2017)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    A modified version of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test is presented as a tool to assess whether a specified, although arbitrary, probability model is unsuitable to describe the underlying distribution of a set of observations. ...

    Graffelman, Jan; Jain, Deepti; Weir, B.S. (2017-04-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Statistical tests for Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium have been an important tool for detecting genotyping errors in the past, and remain important in the quality control of next generation sequence data. In this paper, we ...

  • Graphics for relatedness research 

    Galván Femenía, Iván; Graffelman, Jan; Barceló Vidal, Carles (Wiley, 2017-04-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Studies of relatedness have been crucial in molecular ecology over the last decades. Good evidence of this is the fact that studies of population structure, evolution of social behaviours, genetic diversity and quantitative ...
