摘要:Motivated by the challenge of estimating effects of DNA methylation on 3D genomic contacts captured by multimodal single-cell Hi-C data, we consider the tensor-response partial least squares model with $ \mathcal{Y}=\mathcal{B}\times_{1}X+\mathcal{F} $, where the correlated high-dimensional predictors $ X\in\mathbb{R}<^>{n\times d_{1}} $ and the sparse and noisy high-dimensional responses $ \mathcal{Y}\in\mathbb{R}<^>{n\times\prod_{m}d_{m}} $ are observed, the low-rank and sparse partial least...

摘要:Local variable selection aims to test for the effect of covariates on an outcome within specific regions. We outline a challenge that arises in the presence of nonlinear effects and model misspecification. Specifically, for common semiparametric methods, even slight model misspecification can result in a high false positive rate, in a manner that is highly sensitive to the chosen basis functions. We propose a method based on orthogonal cut splines that avoids false positive inflation for any c...

摘要:We propose a functional accelerated failure time model to characterize the effects of both functional and scalar covariates on the time to event of interest, and provide regularity conditions to guarantee model identifiability. For efficient estimation of model parameters, we develop a sieve maximum likelihood approach where parametric and nonparametric coefficients are bundled with an unknown baseline hazard function in the likelihood function. Not only do the bundled parameters cause immense...

摘要:Randomization tests rely on simple data transformations and possess an appealing robustness property. In addition to being finite-sample valid if the data distribution is invariant under the transformation, these tests can be asymptotically valid under a suitable studentization of the test statistic, even if the invariance does not hold. However, practical implementation often encounters noisy data, resulting in approximate randomization tests that may not be as robust. In this paper, one key ...

摘要:Regression discontinuity designs assess causal effects in settings where treatment is determined by whether an observed running variable crosses a prespecified threshold. Here, we propose a new approach to identification, estimation and inference in regression discontinuity designs that uses knowledge about exogenous noise (e.g., measurement error) in the running variable. In our strategy, we weight treated and control units to balance a latent variable, of which the running variable is a nois...

摘要:Spatial variables can be observed in many different forms, such as regularly sampled random fields (lattice data), point processes and randomly sampled spatial processes. Joint analysis of such collections of observations is clearly desirable, but complicated by the lack of an easily implementable analysis framework. We fill this gap by providing a multitaper analysis framework using coupled discrete and continuous data tapers, combined with the discrete Fourier transform for inference. Using ...

摘要:A fundamental and often final step in time series modelling is to assess the quality of fit of a proposed model to the data. Since the underlying distribution of the innovations that generate a model is often not prescribed, goodness-of-fit tests typically take the form of testing the fitted residuals for serial independence. However, these fitted residuals are intrinsically dependent since they are based on the same parameter estimates, and thus standard tests of serial independence, such as ...

摘要:Latent space models are often used to model network data by embedding a network's nodes into a low-dimensional latent space; however, choosing the dimension of this space remains a challenge. To this end, we begin by formalizing a class of latent space models we call generalized linear network eigenmodels that can model various edge types (binary, ordinal, nonnegative continuous) found in scientific applications. This model class subsumes the traditional eigenmodel by embedding it in a general...

摘要:We propose a method for comparing survival data based on higher criticism of $ p $-values obtained from many exact hypergeometric tests. The method accommodates noninformative right-censorship and is sensitive to hazard differences in unknown and relatively rare time intervals. It attains much better power against such differences than the log-rank test and its variants. We demonstrate the usefulness of our method in detecting rare and weak non-proportional hazard differences compared to exist...
