In particular, we show that any independence model generated by an MTP2 distribution is a compositional semigraphoid which is upward-stable and singleton-transitive. In addition, we prove that any MTP2 distribution satisfying an appropriate support condition is faithful to its concentration graph. Finally, we analyze factorization properties of MTP2 distributions and discuss ways of constructing MTP2 distributions; in particular we give conditions on the log-linear parameters of a discrete distribution which ensure MTP2 and characterize conditional Gaussian distributions which satisfy MTP2.","lang":"eng"}],"isi":1,"user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1","month":"06","article_processing_charge":"No","status":"public","doi":"10.1214/16-AOS1478","project":[{"_id":"2530CA10-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Gaussian Graphical Models: Theory and Applications","call_identifier":"FWF","grant_number":"Y 903-N35"}],"issue":"3","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Annals of Statistics","publisher":"Institute of Mathematical Statistics","external_id":{"isi":["000404395900008"]},"publication_identifier":{"issn":["00905364"]},"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1510.01290","open_access":"1"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Fallat, Shaun","last_name":"Fallat","first_name":"Shaun"},{"full_name":"Lauritzen, Steffen","last_name":"Lauritzen","first_name":"Steffen"},{"full_name":"Sadeghi, Kayvan","last_name":"Sadeghi","first_name":"Kayvan"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-7008-0216","full_name":"Uhler, Caroline","first_name":"Caroline","last_name":"Uhler","id":"49ADD78E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"Wermuth, Nanny","last_name":"Wermuth","first_name":"Nanny"},{"full_name":"Zwiernik, Piotr","first_name":"Piotr","last_name":"Zwiernik"}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:50:05Z","publication_status":"published","year":"2017","page":"1152 - 1184","intvolume":" 45","date_published":"2017-06-01T00:00:00Z","quality_controlled":"1","type":"journal_article","corr_author":"1"}
