摘要:The complexity of human cancer often results in significant heterogeneity in response to treatment. Precision medicine offers the potential to improve patient outcomes by leveraging this heterogeneity. Individualized treatment rules (ITRs) formalize precision medicine as maps from the patient covariate space into the space of allowable treatments. The optimal ITR is that which maximizes the mean of a clinical outcome in a population of interest. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) studies permit t...

摘要:We propose a novel Bayesian methodology for analyzing nonstationary time series that exhibit oscillatory behavior. We approximate the time series using a piecewise oscillatory model with unknown periodicities, where our goal is to estimate the change-points while simultaneously identifying the potentially changing periodicities in the data. Our proposed methodology is based on a trans-dimensional Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm that simultaneously updates the change-points and the periodici...

摘要:The aim of this article is to develop a low-rank linear regression model to correlate a high-dimensional response matrix with a high-dimensional vector of covariates when coefficient matrices have low-rank structures. We propose a fast and efficient screening procedure based on the spectral norm of each coefficient matrix to deal with the case when the number of covariates is extremely large. We develop an efficient estimation procedure based on the trace norm regularization, which explicitly ...

摘要:This article develops a general framework for exploiting the sparsity information in two-sample multiple testing problems. We propose to first construct a covariate sequence, in addition to the usual primary test statistics, to capture the sparsity structure, and then incorporate the auxiliary covariates in inference via a three-step algorithm consisting of grouping, adjusting and pooling (GAP). The GAP procedure provides a simple and effective framework for information pooling. An important a...

摘要:In this article, we consider the nonparametric regression problem with multivariate predictors. We provide a characterization of the degrees of freedom and divergence for estimators of the unknown regression function, which are obtained as outputs of linearly constrained quadratic optimization procedures; namely, minimizers of the least-squares criterion with linear constraints and/or quadratic penalties. As special cases of our results, we derive explicit expressions for the degrees of freedo...

摘要:Ranked data arise in many areas of application ranging from the ranking of up-regulated genes for cancer to the ranking of academic statistics journals. Complications can arise when rankers do not report a full ranking of all entities; for example, they might only report their top-M ranked entities after seeing some or all entities. It can also be useful to know whether rankers are equally informative, and whether some entities are effectively judged to be exchangeable. Revealing subgroup stru...

摘要:The sample frequency spectrum (SFS), or histogram of allele counts, is an important summary statistic in evolutionary biology, and is often used to infer the history of population size changes, migrations, and other demographic events affecting a set of populations. The expected multipopulation SFS under a given demographic model can be efficiently computed when the populations in the model are related by a tree, scaling to hundreds of populations. Admixture, back-migration, and introgression ...
