Journal Article
Paine, P., Preston, S. P., Tsagris, M., & Wood, A. T. (2018). An elliptically symmetric angular Gaussian distribution. Statistics and Computing, 28(3), 689-697. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11222-017-9756-4

We define a distribution on the unit sphere Sd−1 called the elliptically symmetric angular Gaussian distribution. This distribution, which to our knowledge has not been studied before, is a subfamily of the angular Gaussian distribution closely analo...

Bayesian model selection for the glacial-interglacial cycle (2017)
Journal Article
Carson, J., Crucifix, M., Preston, S., & Wilkinson, R. (2017). Bayesian model selection for the glacial-interglacial cycle. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 67(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/rssc.12222

A prevailing viewpoint in paleoclimate science is that a single paleoclimate record contains insufficient information to discriminate between typical competing explanatory models. Here we show that by using SMC 2 (sequential Monte Carlo squared) comb... Read More about Bayesian model selection for the glacial-interglacial cycle.
