1. OBJECTIVES 2014
This I&D Unit (http://www.ceaul.fc.ul.pt) has been playing a central and unique
role in Portugal as a Research Center in Probability, Statistics and its
Applications, developing multidisciplinary activities that aim to carry out research
in domains as diverse as Health, Life Sciences and Biology, Financial Risk and
hazards posed by Nature to the Environment. Together with applied research,
fundamental research is carried out on several areas: Probability, Stochastic
Processes, Extreme Value Theory, Order Statistics, Outliers, Risk Theory,
Computational Statistics and Simulation, Resampling Methods, Quality Control,
Reliability and Design of Experiments, Dynamical Systems and Chaos,
Composite Sampling, Meta Analysis, Longitudinal Data Analysis, Principal
Component Analysis, Bayesian Statistics, Time Series, Survival Analysis,
Classification Methods, Temporal and Spatial Statistics, Categorical Data
Analysis and Missing Data, Environmental Statistics, Statistics in Genomics and
Epidemiological Statistics.
The activities proposed for 2014 followed as a consequence of the main
objective of CEAUL, which is to contribute to the development of new theoretical
framework and methodological issues addressed to applications to real problems,
making efforts towards the correct use of Statistics in Society and Schools. Hence,
during 2014, these objectives were attained through different inter-linked
activities, among which we mention the scientific publications both in National
and International peer review journals, participation in conferences, peer
reviewing, organization of workshops, seminars and advanced courses,
supervision of Ph.D. and M.Sc students and the collaboration with researchers in
other areas.
CEAUL maintains activities to promote Statistics in Society, in High
Institutions and Schools. Towards that, CEAUL keeps links with the National
Institute of Statistics (INE), Portuguese Statistical Society (SPE), Portuguese
Mathematical Society (SPM), Center of International Mathematics (CIM),
Universities and Polytechnics, among other institutions. In particular, senior
members of CEAUL give editorial support to REVSTAT – Statistical Journal, an
International Journal in the area of Probability and Statistics in English, edited by
INE and also to the edition of the SPE newsletter.
Research is the core of the activity of CEAUL. Members are grouped,
according to their research interests, in three main research lines, led by senior
researchers who define the program of activities in order to give coherence to the
group. It is an objective of CEAUL to publish their work on the mainstream high
quality journals in each field and to disseminate their main results in well-
recognized international meetings. Visibility at international level is also an
important issue of CEAUL. For that purpose it is and objective of CEAUL to
promote international collaboration, particularly among its younger members,
seeking the involvement in European projects, participation in international
events, visits of short to medium term in internationally recognized Centres of
Research.

2. MAIN ACTIVITIES DEVELOPED DURING 2014
The program of activities relative to the strategic project of CEAUL for 2014 was
developed along several lines.
A) Research activities and dissemination of research
B) Organization of events and advanced training
C) Internationalization
D) Multidisciplinary activities and services to Community
A) Research activities and dissemination of research
Research activities were developed within the three research groups, namely
• G1: Order Statistics, Extremes and Applications.
• G2: Probability, Modelling and Data Analysis.
• G3: Statistical Modelling in Environmental and Life Sciences.
The main topics of research of G1 were in the fields of univariate, multivariate,
multidimensional and spatial extremes, with special emphasis on their applications to
athletics, biometry, environment, finance, insurance, life sciences, outliers and risk
assessment. Topics in the areas of design of experiments, reliability and statistical
quality control were also of related interest and developed. Group G2 dedicated to the
development of research in the fields of uniformity issues related to combined p-
values and random p-values; Statistics in medical research and in forensic sciences;
composite sampling methodologies; Distribution theory; issues in discrete
longitudinal data analysis, new results associated with Mahalanobis distances;
dynamics and bifurcations properties; Statistics in environmetrics and ecology;
History of Probability and Statistics. They also collaborated with members of G1 in
research problems with common interest. Group G3 worked on specific issues on
extreme value theory; non-linear time series; spatio-temporal non-homogeneous
marked point processes; Bayesian hierarchical modeling and spatio-temporal analysis;
semi-parametric and non-parametric Bayesian analysis; categorical data analysis with
missing responses; state space and dynamic models; ROC analysis; statistical issues
in microarray data analysis. The spectrum of statistical applications was large,
particularly in the fields of environmental and health risks, ranging from the modeling
and analysis of forest fire data in Portugal to the application of state-space models to
estimate the total abundance of certain species of fishes, passing through applications
to road safety, genetics, epidemiology and health. A more detailed description of the
research and dissemination activities can be found in the detailed report of the groups,
in sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.
B) Organization of events and advanced training
CEAUL organized several conferences, workshops, seminars and advanced courses.
The complete list is in Annex 2. Members of the research groups were also
responsible for organizing invited thematic sessions in international and national
conferences; they also lectured short courses and gave seminars in several institutions.
All these activities are also contemplated in the sections referred to above.

C) Internationalization
Members of CEAUL were involved in the organization of thematic sessions in
international conferences, organized international events, were invited to give
seminars and talks at international institutions and conferences. They were also
involved in joint research work with international researchers and participated in
several European projects. More detailed information is given in sections 4.1, 4.2 and
4.3.
D) Multidisciplinary activities and services to Community
Members of CEAUL engaged in an extensive multidisciplinary activities
collaborating with researchers from the areas of Epidemiology, Health, Biology,
Environment, Ecology and Forensic Sciences. We mention the collaboration with
researchers from IGC, IMM, Center of Philosophy of Sciences, Human Genetic
Group of UL, Centre for Health Evaluation & Research, IHMT, Forest Research
Center, Department of Neurosciences at FMUL, Center for the study of respiratory
pathologies at UNL, IPMA, Institute D Luis, Portuguese Quality Institute, BioFIG,
IPO, National Institute of Biological Resources. In particular, it is important to refer
to the collaboration with EDP, IDL and IPMA in a project regarding the influence of
weather conditions in the disruption of electricity grid, the collaborative work with
INSA and DGS in modelling the outbreak of Legionnaires’ Disease in Vila Franca de
Xira, the work carried out within two projects for the industry, namely Amorim &
Irmãos and Amorim Florestal and the study of technical measures for the
management of the ray fishery (Raja undulata), in the Portuguese continental waters,
under a contract within the project UNDULATA-Nº31-03-01 FEP186,(PROMAR –
Programa Operacional Pesca 2007-2013. Eixo 3: Ações colectivas).
CEAUL also maintained the activities previously carried out in order to promote
Statistics in Society and Schools. Towards that, CEAUL kept the existing links with
the National Institute of Statistics (INE), Portuguese Statistical Society (SPE),
Portuguese Mathematical Society (SPM), Center of International Mathematics (CIM),
Universities and Polytechnics, among other institutions. In particular we refer to the
editorial support given by senior members of CEAUL to REVSTAT – Statistical
Journal, an International Journal in the area of Probability and Statistics in English,
edited by INE and the support given to SPE in several of its activities regarding the
promotion of Statistics in Schools through the involvement of some members in the
awarding Prize “Estatístico Júnior”. We further mention all services related to
refereeing for several national and international journals, editorial duties at a national
journal, Boletim da SPE, and at several international journals, among which we
mention journals like Biometrical Letters, The International Journal of Statistical
Theory and Practice (IJSTP) and The Chaotic Modeling and Simulation (CMSIM)
Journal, as well as Extremes and Revstat.

3. MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS 2014
Dissemination of research and interaction: Scientific production was above the
expected and this can be considered one of the main achievements in 2014. There was
one international book published by Springer, 2 national books, 14 chapters of
international books, 2 chapters of national books, the edition of 3 international books
and 1 national. We also published: (a) 53 papers in peer reviewed international
journals in 2014 plus 10 papers before 31 March 2015; (b) 29 papers in proceedings
of international conferences during 2014, plus 11 published before 31 March 2015,
and 11 in proceedings of national conferences. Notice that in the description of the
strategic project PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014, on the table relative to the expected
indicators, we wrote 12 books (counting books+chapter of books) and 30 international
publications. A complete and more detailed list of indicators can be found in Annex 3.
In annex 4 it can be found the complete list of the publications.
However it is not likely that CEAUL will be able to continue with this level of
activity considering the disappointing classification (and consequent financial cut)
achieved in the recent “evaluation” of the research units by FCT. CEAUL’s members
have been making, for a long time, a special effort in order to publish their work on
the mainstream high quality journals in each field and to disseminate their main
results in well-recognized international meetings. Just in 2014 CEAUL members
published in periodicals such as JRSS B, JRRS C, Annals of Statistics, Bernoulli,
Statistica Sinica, J. Statist. Comput. and Simul, Methodology & Computing in
Applied Probability, Computational Statistics and Data Analysis, Chaotic Modeling
and Simulation Journal, Biometrical Journal, Extremes, among others. There was also
a direct evidence of interaction between the theoretical and applied components of the
work. Moreover, there has been a considerable effort on theoretical issues reinforced
with involvement in applications to real world. In this respect, collaborative work was
also quite successful, with publications in periodicals such as Journal of International
Money and Finance, International Financial Markets, Institutions and Finance,
Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, International Journal of
Wildland Fire, Clinical Neurophysiology, Scand. J. Immunol, European Journal of
Endocrinology, Ecological Engineering, Journal Research and Reports in Forensic
Medical Science, etc. There was also a substantial increase in the participation in
international conferences. Research topics set on the general objectives of the
different research groups were, in general, all tackled and subjected to publication.
Projects: Some members of CEAUL integrated research teams of international
projects, such as: (i) Project financed by the European League Against Reumathism
(EULAR) “Patient self-reported quality of osteoarthritis care- comparing cross-
national data from Denmark, UK, Portugal and Norway (2013-2014)”. (ii)
VolkswagenStiftung: WEX-MOP Mesoscale Weather Extremes, (iii) EU FP7
program: MODEXTREME, (iv) Strengthening International Cooperation of the
Klimatext Researh Team, (v) COST (European Cooperation in Science and
Technology) Action IC1408, 2014-2018, (vi) the FP7 European project PERSSILAA
on PERsonalised ICT Supported Service for Independent Living and Active Ageing,
October 2013-October 2016 (vii) European Network for Model-driven Investigation
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014

of Environmental Processes (groups from Spain, Italy, UK) (viii) BIOSTATNET an
interdisciplinary Biostatistics network.
Internationalization: Continuing international recognition was also a main
achievement. This recognition is well manifested particularly through (i) publications
with international researchers, (ii) invitations to give talks in International
Conferences and to organize thematic sessions, (iii) invitations to present seminars in
well recognized international institutions, (iv) participation as associated editors of
international periodicals, (v) members of the scientific committee of international
meetings.
Advanced Training: Five students finished their Ph.D. during 2014 with the
supervision of integrated members of CEAUL. Also two advanced courses were
organized by members of CEAUL on emerging areas of Statistics for researchers and
advanced students from all over the country, as well as courses on more general areas
of Statistics, for researchers and Ph.D. students who want to learn more about some
specific subject.
Consultancy and Service to Community: Members of G1 were involved in
consultancy activities with the projects for the industry, namely with AMORIM &
IRMÃOS S.A. and Amorim Florestal on the development of sampling plans for
detection of specific composites. Members of G3 were involved with EDP, IDL and
IPMA in a project regarding the influence of weather conditions in the disruption of
electricity grid and the with INSA and DGS in modelling the outbreak of
Legionnaires’ Disease in Vila Franca de Xira. Also a member of group G3 gave
consultancy support to the Research Unit of Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa Central
(CHLC) as co-head of the Epidemiology and Statistics Consulting Core.
Software: a second version of the evt0 R-package, related to most of the
methodologies introduced by members of our research group in the area of extreme
value theory (EVT), was published and a new R-package (Boot.EXPOS), with
promising forecasting procedures, was launched.

4.1.1. Objectives The objectives of the Research Group G|1 for 2014 were again in the fields of
univariate, multivariate, multidimensional and spatial extremes, with special
emphasis on their applications to athletics, biometry, environment, finance,
insurance, life sciences, outliers and risk assessment. Topics in the areas of design of
experiments, reliability and statistical quality control were also of related interest and
developed.
Despite of not expected, there were in 2014 several workshops in the area of
extremes, apart from CIRM International Conference on Extreme Value Theory and
Laws of Rare Events, in July 2014. The public presentation of the new results in this
area was essentially done at the SMTDA 2014 (information still available on-line at
http://www.smtda.net/smtda2014.html), Lisbon, June, at COMPSTAT 2014 (see
http://compstat2014.org/), Geneve, August, at ERCIM 2014, Pisa, and at ESSEC
Conference on Extreme Events in Finance, France, both in December. Indeed, in
these last conference there two plenary speakers from G|1. There were also 2 invited
organized sessions at the Second Conference of ISNPS (International Society of
Nonparametric Statistics), Cádiz, June, with the participation of members of the
team. The presentation of results in other areas was done not only in the
aforementioned conferences, but also at the 8th Workshop on Statistics Mathematics
and Computation, Cabo Verde, March, E-MATH2014, Barcelona, April, CHAOS
2014, Lisbon, June, ISF2014, Rotterdam, July, ICCMSE2014, Athens, April, 1ª
Conferência Internacional da Amazônia em Estatística Experimental e Análise do
Risco, Manaus, August, 12th ICNAAM, Rhodes, September, 4th Polish-Portuguese
Workshop on Biometry, Krakov, September, 1st Conference on Experimental
Design and Statistical Modelling, Poznan, September.
We went on with services to the community, with the organization of 16 conferences
and invited sessions in 2014, as well as seminars and short courses in the areas of
research of the team. It is also sensible to mention the scientific cooperation of
members of this group, GI1, in regular congresses in Portugal, like CONFMET,
JOCLAD and SPE meetings. Most of the members of GI1 have also continuously
supervised M.Sc. and Ph.D. Thesis, and in 2014, 2 Ph.D. and 10 M.Sc students got
their degrees. We further mention all services related to refereeing for several
national and international journals, editorial duties at a national journal, Boletim da
SPE, and at several international journals, among which we mention journals like
Biometrical Letters, The International Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice
(IJSTP) and The Chaotic Modeling and Simulation (CMSIM) Journal, as well as
Extremes and Revstat, two journals recently included in the ISI Web of Knowledge
since 2010.

4.1.2 Main Activities The topics developed by members of this Group in 2014 were the following:
1) Non-parametric, semi-parametric and parametric reliable estimation of first-
order parameters of extreme events, under heavy-tailed frameworks.
2) Different types of max-stability and randomly stopped maxima.
3) Estimation of high-order parameters in statistics of extremes.
4) Adaptive estimation through either resampling or heuristic methods.
5) Extremes and robustness.
6) Penultimate approximations and reliability of large coherent systems.
7) Bias-correction.
8) The block maxima, POT and PPWM methods revisited.
9) Short, light and exponential tail estimation. Associated bias-corrected
methodologies.
10) Estimation in truncated Pareto type models.
11) Endpoint and Weibull-type coefficient estimation. Interval estimation for the
endpoint from resampling and asymptotical frameworks. Applications in athletics,
biology, climatology and environment.
12) Semi-parametric and parametric testing.
13) Chaotic modeling and simulation.
14) Development of further statistical analysis in health studies (osteoarthritis and
diabetes type 2) and biomedical applications.
15) The total median and other robust statistics in SQC. Control charts with
estimated parameters.
16) Multivariate data analysis and Statis.
17) Robust experimental designs and balanced incomplete block designs with
repeated blocks (BIBDR).
18) Risk analysis, financial statistics and forecasting. Submission of a new
package at the R community (Boot.EXPOS), with promising forecasting procedures.
Long-term experiences in mathematics e-learning.
19) Spatial statistics and trend detection. Trends in rainfall in time and space.
20) Statistics for dependent frameworks and stochastic processes. Extremal index
and tail dependence coefficients’ estimation.
21) The generalised Pareto, related processes and applications.
22) Generalisation of the semi-parametric estimation of a spatially varying scale
parameter.
Regarding software, a second version of the evt0 R-package, related to most of the
methodologies introduced by members of our research group in the area of extreme
value theory (EVT), was published and a new R-package (Boot.EXPOS), with
promising forecasting procedures, was launched. Statis and Multivariate data analysis
for assessment of risk factors was also under strong development. We also thought
probable that the final installation of the R package named “evbs”, to analyze data
from extreme value Birnbaum-Saunders (EVBS), and related to a joint cooperation
with a Chilean colleague, Victor Leiva, was ready by the end of 2014. This was not
the case, and this is the unique planned and not achieved objective.
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014
13
4.1.3. Main Achievements Apart from the unique above mentioned negative fact related to the non launching of
the “evbs” R-package, all proposed objectives were achieved. The summary of the
results achieved from January 1, 2014 until March 31, 2015, is the following:
• 12 papers published at international journals, and 10 additional articles accepted (not
included in the indicators in item 5).
• 7 articles published as chapters of books (included in the indicator on ‘Books’, due
to the lack of an item ‘Chapters of Books’), and 16 accepted for publication (not
included in the indicators).
• Edition of 1 book (again included in the item ‘Books’) of extended abstracts
associated to the WSMC 8, Santiago, Cabo Verde, edited by ISCEE, and 1 special
issue of Biometrie und Medizinische Informatik – Greifswalder Seminarberichte,
entitled ‘Statistical and Biometrical Challenges, Theory and Applications’, published
by Shaker-Verlag (also included in the item ‘Books’). A book on ‘Theory and
Practice of Risk Assessment’ (Springer Proceedings in Mathematics and Statistics),
edited partially by members of the team, is already in press, but was not included in
the indicators.
• 40 publications in international proceedings, including 11 abstracts (counted in the
item ‘International Communications’, now due to the non-existence of an item related
to ‘International Proceedings’).
• 2 publications in national journals.
• 4 publications in national proceedings (included in ‘National Communications’).
• The national edition of 2 issues of SPE Bulletin.
• An impressive number of 48 invited seminars/lectures (most of them plenary, 36
international, 6 of which published in proceedings). The 12 national seminars were
counted in the item ‘National Communications’, jointly with the 3 publications in
national proceedings.
• Several informal seminars.
• Involvement in organizations of 16 congresses/sessions in 2014 and in 6 congresses
to be held in 2015, being this small number forced to the breakdown associated with
the classification of GOOD attained by CEAUL.
• The contributions of this team to human resources formation in 2014 were 2 Ph.D.
Thesis, 10 MSc Thesis already discussed, and several short courses.
• We further would like to mention the participation of members of the team in 5
international Projects, the running of EXPL/MAT-STA/0622/2013, 1 Project entitled
‘Desenvolvimento de Extremos no Tempo e no Espaço’, funded by FCT, and 2
Projects for Industry, with Amorim & Irmãos (2014) and Amorim Florestal (in
progress). We further have 1 Horizon 2020 Project (H2020-PHC-2014-two-stage)
under evaluation.
• Further note that instead of the 10 articles expected in 2014 peer-reviewed journals,
we managed to have 12 published articles in this period (8 in 2014) and 10 accepted
for publication, already on-line. Also instead of the 20 international publications
expected in books, proceedings and extended abstracts, we could count 47 (with the
edition of the 2 books), already published and 11 accepted (including the edition of a
Springer’s book).
• The publication in national journals or proceedings was low as expected, but we
could count 4 articles in national proceedings of ‘JOCLAD— XXI Jornadas de
Classificação e Análise de Dados’, ‘II Congresso de Ciência e Desenvolvimento dos
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014
14
Açores—Novos Sonhos para uma Realidade pós-crise’ and XXI Congresso Annual
da Sociedade Portuguesa de Estatística.
• In general, and scientifically, we have thus over-passed all the proposed objectives.

4.1.1. Objectives and Main Achievements
(achievements in the proposed research, with indication of the corresponding
publication listed below; a partial list of conferences and seminars is also
appended)
I a) Combining p-values: autoregressive models, pseudo p-values and generalized p-
values, and effects of computational sampling augmentation: studies on the
estimation of the mixing parameter of the class Xm, combining information from
uniforms and extremes of two uniforms. (D. Pestana, M. F. Brilhante, F.
Sequeira, P. Semblano) — the team introduced the concepts of messy p-values
and messy generalized p-values, dealing with inappropriate use of repeated
experimentation when the first result doesn’t match the experimenter hopes,
respectively under the null and under the alternative hypothesis. The estimation of
the proportion of messy p-values gives rise to identifiability issues, and has
important bearings in their combination in meta analysis. Aside from the
publications II.35, II.50, the question has been presented and discussed in several
seminars and international conferences.
b) Statistics in medical research and in forensic sciences (C. Pereira, R. Santos, L.
Soares de Almeida, M. S. Cabral, F. Diamantino) — members of this team
participated in research in several areas of Medicine, namely on Forensics,
publishing II.14, II.15, II.17, II.24, II.25, II.32, II.34, II.53, II.57, II.58 and the
eBook II.2, Aside from those publications, many communications and posters
have been accepted in international conferences.
c) Extension of the composite sampling methodologies for continuous data and with
imperfect sensitivity and specificity, and cost control issues in sampling: research
on block sampling, and other methods of sampling costs control. (R. Santos, M.
Felgueiras, J.P. Martins) — several issues in d the research in pooled samples
theory, with applications on clinical tests and on acceptance sampling, and issues
in probability distributions, namely the investigation of distribution mixtures,
have been developed. In addition to the hierarchical methodologies, the array-
based group testing algorithms were investigated in order to develop more
efficient methodologies of classification, with low probability of misclassification
(measured by the specificity and sensitivity of each methodology), as well as
more robust prevalence rate estimation procedures. II.18 has received the “Best
Paper Award” at Computational and Applied Statistics – ICCSA 2014.
d) Distribution theory, namely in generalized Pareto, general extreme value and beta-
related distributions (D. Pestana, M. F. Brilhante, S. Mendonça, F. Se ueira, M.
Felgueiras, R. Santos, J. P. Martins) — aside from the publications II.5, II,6, II.9,
II.301, II.35, and II.41, focused in the investigation of mixtures, on the
relationships between maxima and the mean, and on products and products of
powers of beta random variables, there has been investigtion on contaminated p-
values, that are mixtures of betas, and on the distribution theory of k-th order
statistics in geometrically thinned sequences, both exact and asymptotic.

II a) Impact of missing and dropout in the approaches previously developed to
analyze discrete longitudinal data analysis (M. S. Cabral, . Gonçalves) gave rise
to the publication of II.37, II.42, and participated in international conferences,
namely presenting results at COMPSTAT.
b) New results associated with Mahalanobis distances and their representation in the
space of variables. (J. Cadima) — results on the geometric characterization of
Mahalanobis distances in the space of variables, and its consequences in both
theory and practice have been published in II.40, and further results are under
reviewing.
III a) Study of dynamics and bifurcations properties of continuous-defined one-
dimensional maps, in a three parameter space. Big bang bifurcations and the
"box-within-a box" structure. Study of different types of couplings and the
respective synchronization analysis (J. Leonel Rocha, S. Aleixo) — a family of
von Bertallanffy applications has been widely studied. The complexity of the
system was measured using Lyapunov exponents and the synchronization interval
was computed as a function of two biological parameters: growth rate and the
asymptotic weight. A new one-dimensional discrete dynamic systems: a family of
applications proportional to the right side of Richards growth equation, has been
established. The bifurcation structure of Richards functions in the two-
dimensional parameters space (β, r), where β is associated with growth
retardation phenomenon, and r is the intrinsic growth rate was investigated in
detail. Sufficient conditions have been established for the occurrence of
extinction, stability, period doubling, chaos and not admissibility. Networks were
considered having in each node a Richards function. Some results were obtained
on the synchronization level when the topology of the network is fixed and
change the local dynamics and, when the local dynamics is fixed and the global
dynamics of the network changes. Publicstions: II.12, II.13, II.26, II.27, II.28,
II.289, II.30, II.38,
b) Chaotic population dynamics models and extreme value theory (D. Pestana, M. F.
Brilhante, F. Sequeira, P. Semblano)
IV Statistics in environmetrics and ecology, namely use of extreme value in the
structural analysis of geophysics data from Madeira (S. Mendonça, D. Gouveia-
Reis, R. Vasconcelos, M. Salom Cabral) — the precipitation in Madeira Island
was studied, using the extreme value theory in and in II.43, II.44, II.52, and in the
Ph. D. thesis II.1; in II.23, statistical methods have been used to understand the
beneficial effects of pine thinning.
V) Reinforcement of the collaboration with Team 1, namely:
a) Tail index estimation; Mop-estimators (M. F. Brilhante, D. Pestana, P. Semblano)
II.4, II.7, II.19, II.20,
b) Structure of randomly stopped k-order statistics, namely with Panjer general count
models subordinators (D. Pestana, S. Mendonça) — basic count distribution were
investigated in II.10, II.46,

VI a) History of Probability and Statistics, namely the analysis of early portuguese
publications on the foundations of Statistics. (Rui Santos, D. Pestana) — The
research on the History of Probability and Statistics in Portugal in the early XXth
century was developed in order to identify influences of Henry Poincaré's ideas
about randomness, probability, and certainty, mainly in the grounds of Probability
calculation proposed in the doctoral thesis of Diogo Pacheco d'Amorim in 1914.
Aside from the publications II.49, II.56, there has been regular participation on
seminars in the field, with presentation of results.
b) Statistics and the experimental method, and related issues in Philosophy of
Science: reinforcement of the collaboration with Centro de Filosofia das Ciências
da Universidade de Lisboa, with emphasis on the field of statistical methods
inknowledge building. (D. Pestana) — aside from collaboration in the Ph. D.
program in the Philosophy of Sciences, results have been published in II.50, II.55.
c) Documentation for Teaching of Statistics: draft of the second volume of Pestana
and Velosa: Introdução Probabilidade e Estatística Gulbenkian manual (D.
Pestana, Rui Santos and Eug nia Graça Martins) — compilation of results has
been used in building up counter-examples and exercices; some material has been
published in II.33, II.39.
d) Statistics for the layman: conferences and papers on the many beauties and uses of
Statistics, with a caveat on the abuse of Statistics. (D. Pestana, S. Mendonça) —
this topic has been developed mainly via conferences, and produced the
publications II.53, II.54, II.55, II.56, II.58.
e) Translation of Statistical texts: preparation of a revised and enlarged on-line
edition o [NB1] (D. Pestana, C. Ventura, P. Pestana, with the collaboration of
M.I. Gomes) — gathering results continued, but a on-line second edition has been
postponed until more significant progress is achieved.

The main achievements during 2014 were:
1. Extreme value theory: KF Turkman continued his work on the asymptotic
joint distributions of the maxima of stationary processes and their discrete versions
with Laurens de Haan, on issues related to max-stable processes. L de Haan worked
with two members of the group 1: with A Ferreira worked on the Generalized Pareto
Process (the paper was published on Bernoulli) and on the block maxima method in
extreme value theory (the paper will be published in 2015 in Annals of Statistics);
with C. Neves worked on tail trend detection: modeling relative risk. This paper will
appear in Extremes. With some international co-workers he also worked on several
other issues on extreme value theory. The papers will appear in 2015 in JRSS B and
Bernoulli.
PZ Bermudez worked on the application of Generalized Pareto Models to extreme
temperatures in Spain. The work, initiated in 2013, was published in 2014 in
Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment.
2. Time series: The book on Non-linear Time Series:Extreme Events and Integer
Value Problems, was finished and published by Springer in 2014. P de Zea Bermudez
jointly with KF Turkman and MA Turkman, worked on problems related to
computational methodological issues, namely on the construction of an ABC method
for bilinear processes. This work will be published during 2015 as a chapter of a book
dedicated to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Nazaré Lopes.
3. Spatial and Temporal Models: P Pereira in her PhD thesis defended in
December 2014, had as main challenge the study of spatio-temporal non-
homogeneous marked point processes as models for fire data. In order to study the
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014
51
spatio-temporal point patterns of wildfires, a preliminary analysis via spatial point
processes was applied to satellite imagery data of annual records of observed fire
scars and their locations in Portugal for 31 years. A spatio-temporal log Gaussian Cox
process was also fitted to the data to model the area burned, following a stochastic
partial differential equation (SPDE) approach. In this way it was shown how the point
configuration affects the dimension of the fire. Based on these models, two maps were
created: one associated to the density of fires and the other associated to the area
burned. It was adopted a Bayesian inference framework and use the Integrated Nested
Laplace Approximation (INLA) and Stochastic Partial Differential Equation (SPDE)
to perform the inference. Also I Natario and co-workers used INLA to Estimate a
Highly Dimensional Spatial Model for Forest Fires in Portugal. The paper was
published as a chapert of a book in Springer. Another perspective of the Bayesian
modelling of wildfires in Portugal was offered by G Silva. The paper was accepted for
publication as a chapter of a book from Springer.
A Papolia, jointly with A Turkman, R São João and C Ribeiro, analysed the incidence
of stomach cancer in Southern Portugal between 1998 and 2006 for females and
males jointly using a spatial multivariate age-period-cohort model. The paper was
published in Biometrical Journal.
M Antunes was dedicated mainly to the study and application of Bayesian
hierarchical models to count point referenced data, namely the estimation of the
abundance of Cullex pipiens in Portugal. She was also dedicated to the study of
disease mapping applications to spatial-temporal data, in particular the analysis of the
number of hospital admissions due to heart failure in Portugal.
I Natario with a PhD student worked on A Spatial Econometrics Analysis for Road
Accidents in Lisbon. The work was accepted for publication as a chapter of a book.
4. Models for fire frequency data: KF Turkman, A Turkman and P Pereira,
looking at existing practices in producing fire risk maps based on fire frequency data,
suggested improvements by incorporating the strong spatial and temporal dependence
that exists in the data using two different strategies. One consisted in modelling
interarrival times and another by modelling yearly fire occurrences. These two
distinct strategies accommodate different possibilities to introduce time dependent
covariates. The work was carried out with collaborators from ISA and resulted on a
paper published in 2014 in Journal of Statistical Thepry and Practice. A Turkman and
co-workers from ISA, proposed several discrete distributions to estimate fire
mortality, survival and hazard functions by vegetation type in a paper published in
2013 in JWF. This work motivated another study undertaken during 2013-2014,
related to Modelling Fire Frequency in a Cerrado Savanna Protected Area which was
published in 2014 in PLOS ONE.
5. Bayesian semi parametric and Nonparametric Bayesian Analysis: CD
Paulino, and N Spulveda proposed a Bayesian semiparametric approach to implement
inference for data obtained by using modern sequencing technologies, such as the
analysis of T-cell counts in immunological research and studies of gene expression
based on counts of RNA fragments, where the items being counted are sequences, of
proteins and base pairs respectively. The resulting sequence abundance distribution is
usually characterized by overdispersion. Besides modelling the overdispersion, the
approach takes also into account two related sources of bias. The paper was published
in JRSS C. CD Paulino with international partners also worked on Semi-parametric
Bayesian analysis of binary responses with a continuous covariate subject to non-
random missingness. The work is to appear in the periodical Statistical Modelling.
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014
52
M Antunes, S Ramos and and ATurkman worked on a nonparametric Bayesian
formulation to the screening methodology. Their proposal is based on the product of a
dependent Dirichlet mixed model by a Dirichlet mixed model. The work was
presented during 2014 in two international conferences. An article with the results are
currently under submission.
M J Polidoro and A Turkman worked on a Bayesian nonparametric goodness-of-fit
test to evaluate the goodness-of-fit in the exponential case and we compare the power
of these tests with some classical test statistics. The paper was published in the
ICCSA proceedings by Springer.
6. Categorical data analysis and missing imputation: C D Paulino worked on
the analysis of categorical data with missing responses; he extended the multinomial
modelling scenario to a product-multinomial framework that allows the inclusion of
explanatory variables. He considered maximum likelihood (ML) and weighted least
squares (WLS) as well as a hybrid ML/WLS approach to fit linear, log-linear and
more general functional linear models under ignorable and nonignorable missing data
mechanisms. The work was published in the Brazilian Journal of Probability and
Statistics.
N Sepúlveda worked on the performance of multiple imputation based on chained
equations in tackling missing genotypes in a malaria association study in Tanzania.
With his co-workers, he constructed different imputation models and studied their
performance under different missing data conditions; using the best imputation model
for the data, they obtained unbiased estimates for the genetic effects, and association
signals of the HBA2 gene on malaria positivity. The work was published in Annals of
Human Genetics.
7. State space and dynamic models: I Natário, L Carvalho and I Figueiredo
worked on modelling the dynamics of the black scabbardfish in NE Atlantic through a
space state model, application of stochastic frontier analysis to fisheries, in particular
the black scabbardfish fishery and initiated a project for dealing with the ray fishery
in the Portuguese continental waters (evaluation of its exploration state, and the study
of technical measures for its management). The work on A State Space Model
Approach for Modelling the Population Dynamics of Black Scabbardfish in
Portuguese Mainland Waters was accepted for publication as a chapter of a book.
Also it is important to refer the involvement in the study of technical measures for the
management of the ray fishery (Raja undulata), in the Portuguese continental waters,
under a contract within the project UNDULATA-Nº31-03-01 FEP186,(PROMAR –
Programa Operacional Pesca 2007-2013. Eixo 3: Ações colectivas).
8 ROC analysis: V Inacio and co-workers proposed a method for evaluating a
functional covariate effect on the pAUC, a well-established measure of diagnostic
accuracy when only a portion of the ROC curve is of interest. This work, submitted to
Annals of Applied Statistics, is an extension of the one published in 2012 where a
flexible ROC regression was proposed for the case where the covariate affecting the
biomarker’s performance is functional. With co-workers she is writing a book on on
Bayesian flexible regression models for ROC curve estimation and disease diagnosis.
This book is to be published by Chapman & Hall, Biostatistics series, in 2015.
L Gonçalves and PZ Bermudez wrote a paper on an overview of ROC Curve
Estimation which was published in REVSTAT.
9. Statistics in the analysis of microarray data: L Sousa has been collaborating
with researchers from IMM (FMUL), BioFIG (FCUL) IHMT (UNL) in the
development of statistical methods for the analysis of Microarray and Next
Generation Sequencing data. The problems under investigation are on: (1) multiple
PEst-OE/MAT/UI0006/2014 DETAILED REPORT: 2014
53
testing procedures for hierarchically dependent hypothesis and for conditional, in
high-throughput data; (2) the use of visualization and statistical techniques for GO
annotation of protein; (3) the introduction of meta-heuristic methods for model
selection in generalized additive neural networks. The work resulted in the
publication of an article in Plant Physiology and Biochemistry and another in PLoS
ONE. L Sousa and C Silva-Fortes explored the ideas behind the arrow plot to the
analysis of microarrays. With co-workers they use exploratory techniques to visualize
the effects of preprocessing methods on statistical analysis of cancer two-channel
micro array data sets, where the cancer types (classes) are known. A variety of results
from this work were published in the proceedings of a conference and as a chapter of
a book to appear in 2015.
M Antunes with collaborators from the CQBQ and IMM worked on a comparative
study of alternative mixture model methods to analyze bacterial CGH experiments
with multi-genome arrays. An Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm was applied
to fit a mixture model to the signal distribution. The work provides a guiding
benchmark comparison of alternative methods to analyze aCGH results that can
impact on the analysis of currently ongoing comparative genomic projects or in the
re-analysis of published studies. The paper was published in BMC Research Notes.
10 Statistical advances and contributions in Epidemiology, Immunology, and
Health: During the outbreak of the Legionnaires Disease, L Carvalho was called to
collaborate with INSA, Instituto Nacional de Saúde Dr. Ricardo Jorge, and DGS,
Direção Geral de Saúde, on a model for the Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks. Back-
calculation models developed by Egan et al. were applied using epidemiological data
available on 12 November. The models allowed determination of the period of aerosol
release (period of exposure) and estimation of the number of expected cases. The
results of this study and the findings were published a paper on Euro Surveillance
entitled A Large Community Outbreak of Legionnaires’ Disease in Vila Franca de
Xira, Portugal, October to November 2014.
L Gonçalves was involved in a study that aimed to assess community perceptions of
Madeira population in order to explore their involvement in the A. aegypti’s control
and reinforce health-educational planning. Due to the lack of accurate methodologies
for measuring perception, a new tool to assess the community’s perceptions was built.
The paper was published BMC Public Health. She also worked on a paper relating the
impact of dengue outbreak experience in a dengue infected community of the Madeira
island. The paper was accepted for publication. Using data from the data from the
National Health Interview Survey L Gonçalves investigated: the clustering of
behavioural risk factors in a Portuguese population; the dietary patterns of the
Portuguese population with and without self-reported diabetes. Also she participated
in a study to explore the association between the patterns of behaviour risk factors in a
Portuguese population aged 15 years and over with diabetes and their Self-rated
health (SRH) which is a health measure related to mortality, healthcare services
utilization and quality of life. All these studies were published in periodicals related to
health.

N Sepúlveda currently studies the statistics aspects of using antibody data to assess
malaria transmission intensity and its putative changes after a field intervention. He is
also collaborating in projects aiming to accurately estimate T-cell receptor diversity in
the body. During 2014 he worked on several statistical methods of the malaria
endemicity, interethnic differences in susceptibility to malaria, malaria resistance and
malaria association studies, resulting in a great variety of published papers.
The collaboration of AL Papoila with medical doctors has been very important and
fruitful resulting in several publications and communications in conferences. Her
work with medical doctors is mainly of consulting where she provides
epidemiological and statistical support to researchers. Due to the great diversity of
datasets that she has to analyse, several statistical techniques, simple and more
complex, must be used, such as: generalized linear mixed models and generalized
additive mixed models, interval-censored data, age-period-cohort models, hierarchical
bayesian spatio-temporal models, projection models, relative survival, quantile
regression models, generalized additive model for location, scale and shape –
GAMLSS and distributional regression implemented by BayesX, cluster and factor
analysis. 4.3.3 Publications
