Abstract: In modern applications such as ECG monitoring, neuroimaging, wearable sensing, and industrial equipment diagnostics, complex and continuously structured data are ubiquitous, presenting both challenges and opportunities for functional data analysis. However, existing methods face a critical trade-off: conventional functional models are limited by linearity, whereas deep learning approaches lack interpretable region selection for sparse effects. To bridge these gaps, we propose a sparse Bayesian functional deep neural network (sBayFDNN). It learns adaptive functional embeddings through a deep Bayesian architecture to capture complex nonlinear relationships, while a structured prior enables interpretable, region-wise selection of influential domains with quantified uncertainty. Theoretically, we establish rigorous approximation error bounds, posterior consistency, and region selection consistency. These results provide the first theoretical guarantees for a Bayesian deep functional model, ensuring its reliability and statistical rigor. Empirically, comprehensive simulations and real-world studies confirm the effectiveness and superiority of sBayFDNN. Crucially, sBayFDNN excels in recognizing intricate dependencies for accurate predictions and more precisely identifies functionally meaningful regions, capabilities fundamentally beyond existing approaches.

This is a fashion trend. It’s not just functional; camo serves no purpose of disguising whatsoever on Minneapolis streets. Militaries are dressing the part — and ICE is playing dress-up.

Turning an old Amazon Kindle into a eink development platform
I fancied getting an eink screen to use for future projects. I bought a wee one with a raspberry pi “hat” attached. However, I realised later that I could maybe just re-purpose an old A…

"En el caso de las izquierdas, hay algunas izquierdas que cuando se trata de Cuba miran para otro lado sin entender que Cuba tiene muchas funciones en la batalla cultural de las izquierdas del hemisferio occidental."
"In the case of the left, there are certain left sections that, when Cuba comes up, look the other way, without understanding that Cuba has multiple functions in the cultural battle of the Western hemisphere left."

There absolutely must be SOME way to detect WHY a #Java #Tomcat server would suddenly, after 6 years operation, spontaneously exit after 25-50 seconds of perfectly functional uptime and yet leave no #JVM hs_err crash file.
In catalina.sh debug, it logs the startup, sits idle, then the debugger reports 'disconnected'. This suggests it self-destructs, rather than an external kill - 9?

My department at CSU Northridge is hiring a vertebrate functional morphologist! We've got a great EEB group, and we're looking for someone to carry forward a tradition of enriching organismal courses and community-engaged research. App review starts March 15
I'm not on the hiring committee, but happy to answer questions about the department, campus, and life in Los Angeles
