Covariance weighted procrustes analysis (2015)
Book Chapter
Brignell, C. J., Dryden, I. L., & Browne, W. J. (2015). Covariance weighted procrustes analysis. In P. K. Turaga, & A. Srivastava (Eds.), Riemannian Computing in Computer Vision (189-209). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-22957-7_9

© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016. We revisit the popular Procrustes matching procedure of landmark shape analysis and consider the situation where the landmark coordinates have a completely general covariance matrix, extending pre...

Size and shape analysis of error-prone shape data (2014)
Journal Article
Du, J., Dryden, I. L., & Huang, X. (2015). Size and shape analysis of error-prone shape data. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 110(509), https://doi.org/10.1080/01621459.2014.908779

We consider the problem of comparing sizes and shapes of objects when landmark data are prone to measurement error. We show that naive implementation of ordinary Procrustes analysis that ignores measurement error can compromise inference. To account...

Distances and inference for covariance operators (2014)
Journal Article
Pigoli, D., Aston, J. A., Dryden, I. L., & Secchi, P. (2014). Distances and inference for covariance operators. Biometrika, 101(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/biomet/asu008

A framework is developed for inference concerning the covariance operator of a functional random process, where the covariance operator itself is an object of interest for statistical analysis. Distances for comparing positive-definite covariance mat... Read More about Distances and inference for covariance operators.

Rank-based model selection for multiple ions quantum tomography (2012)
Journal Article
Guţă, M., Kypraios, T., & Dryden, I. (2012). Rank-based model selection for multiple ions quantum tomography. New Journal of Physics, 14(105002), https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/14/10/105002

The statistical analysis of measurement data has become a key component of many quantum engineering experiments. As standard full state tomography becomes unfeasible for large dimensional quantum systems, one needs to exploit prior information and th...

A Bayesian elicitation of veterinary beliefs regarding systemic dry cow therapy: variation and importance for clinical trial design (2012)
Journal Article
Higgins, H., Dryden, I. L., & Green, M. J. (2012). A Bayesian elicitation of veterinary beliefs regarding systemic dry cow therapy: variation and importance for clinical trial design. Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 106(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.prevetmed.2012.01.017

The two key aims of this research were: (i) to conduct a probabilistic elicitation to quantify the variation in veterinarians’ beliefs regarding the efficacy of systemic antibiotics when used as an adjunct to intra-mammary dry cow therapy and (ii) to...

Bayesian alignment of continuous molecular shapes using random fields (2008)
Journal Article
Czogiel, I., Dryden, I. L., & Brignell, C. J. Bayesian alignment of continuous molecular shapes using random fields. Manuscript submitted for publication

Statistical methodology is proposed for comparing molecular shapes. In order to account for the continuous nature of molecules, classical shape analysis methods are combined with techniques used for predicting random fields in spatial statistics. Ap...
