Hippocampal representations of partner and novel individuals in monogamous California mice during pair bond formation

Posted by dbos Columbia

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Siegelbaum | Authors: Kimberly Hernandez Palacios, Oshmita Golam, Steven A Siegelbaum and Andres Bendesky | Summary: The hippocampal CA2 region is critical for social novelty recognition memory—the discrimination of whether a conspecific is novel or familiar. However, its role in forming a memory of a pair-bonded mate is unknown. To examine how […]

Semiparametric Elliptical Mixture Clustering for High-Dimensional Data

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Long| Summary: Clustering high-dimensional data is especially challenging when cluster distributions are heavy tailed and only approximately elliptical. Existing high-dimensional methods are largely built for Gaussian or other light-tailed models, whereas classical robust elliptical procedures are mostly low dimensional or rely on fully parametric radial families. We propose a semiparametric elliptical mixture […]
