Pareto-Optimal Clustering with the Primal Deterministic Information Bottleneck
At the heart KIDS SNOW of both lossy compression and clustering is a trade-off between the fidelity and size of the learned representation.Our goal is to map out and study the Pareto frontier that quantifies this trade-off.We focus on the optimization of the Deterministic Information Bottleneck (DIB) objective over the space of hard clusterings.To
Post-truth epistemic beliefs rooted in the Dark Factor of Personality are associated with higher COVID-19 vaccination refusal
Abstract A substantial KIDS SNOW number of people refused to get vaccinated against COVID-19, which prompts the question as to why.We focus on the role of individual worldviews about the nature and generation of knowledge (epistemic beliefs).We propose a model that includes epistemic beliefs, their relationship to the Dark Factor of Personality (D)
Type I error control for cluster randomized trials under varying small sample structures
Abstract Background Linear mixed models (LMM) are a common approach to analyzing data from cluster randomized trials (CRTs).Inference on parameters can be performed via Wald tests or likelihood ratio tests (LRT), but both approaches may give incorrect Type I error rates in common finite sample settings.The impact of different combinations of cluste
