摘要:We propose a consistent method for estimating both the finite- and infinite-dimensional parameters of the proportional odds model when a covariate is subject to measurement error and time-to-events are subject to right censoring. The proposed method does not rely on the distributional assumption of the true covariate, which is not observed in the data. In addition, the proposed estimator does not require the measurement error to be:normally distributed or to have any other specific distributio...

摘要:It has been more than half a century since Tukey first introduced graphical displays that relate nonoverlap of confidence intervals to statistically significant differences between parameter estimates. In this article, we show how Tukey's graphical overlap procedure can be modified to accommodate general forms of dependence within and across samples. We also develop a procedure that can be used to more effectively resolve rankings within the tails of the distributions of parameter values, ther...

摘要:Independence screening is powerful for variable selection when the number of variables is massive. Commonly used independence screening methods are based on marginal correlations or its variants. When some prior knowledge on a certain important set of variables is available, a natural assessment on the relative importance of the other predictors is their conditional contributions to the response given the known set of variables. This results in conditional sure independence screening (CSIS). C...

摘要:Estimation of change-point locations in the broken-stick model has significant applications in modeling important biological phenomena. In this article, we present a computationally economical likelihood-based approach for estimating change-point(s) efficiently in both cross-sectional and longitudinal settings. Our method, based on local smoothing in a shrinking neighborhood of each change-point, is shown via simulations to be computationally more viable than existing methods that rely on sear...

摘要:Graphical models are a popular approach to find dependence and conditional independence relationships between gene expressions. Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are a special class of directed, graphical models, where all the edges are directed edges and contain. no directed cycles. The DAGs are well known models for discovering causal relationships between genes in gene regulatory networks. However, estimating DAGs without assuming known ordering is challenging due to high dimensionality, the a...

摘要:The stability of statistical analysis is an important indicator for reproducibility, which is one main principle of the scientific method. It entails that similar statistical conclusions can be reached based on independent samples from the same underlying population. In this article, we introduce a general measure of classification instability (CIS) to quantify the sampling variability of the prediction made by a classification method. Interestingly, the asymptotic CIS of any weighted nearest ...
