Statistical Model Building, Machine Learning, and the Ah-Ha Moment
Statistical Model Building Machine Learning the Ah-Ha Moment
2013/4/28
The Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies (COPSS) will celebrate its 50th Anniversary in 2013. As part of its celebration, COPSS intends to publish a book with contributions from the past r...
Statistical Inference For Persistent Homology
persistent homology topology density estimation
2013/4/28
Persistent homology is a method for probing topological properties of point clouds and functions. The method involves tracking the birth and death of topological features as one varies a tuning parame...
Left handedness and Leadership in Interactive Contests
Left handedness Leadership lnteractive Contests
2013/5/2
Left-handedness is known to provide an advantage at top level at many sports involving interactive contests. Earlier studies revealed that this is because of the innate superiority of left-handed cont...
Network analysis reveals distinct clinical syndromes underlying acute mountain sickness
Acute mountain sickness sleep headache visual analogue scale BioLayout Express 3D
2013/5/2
Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is a common problem among visitors at high altitude, and may progress to life-threatening pulmonary and cerebral oedema in a minority of cases. International consensus de...
Co-Occurring HIV Risk Behaviors among Males Entering Jail
HIV risk co-occurring behaviors correctional facilities male detainees
2013/4/28
This paper examines the pattern of HIV risk behaviors among male jail detainees. From multivariate analyses of baseline data from an HIV intervention study of ours, we find that: (1) cocaine use, hero...
From GWAS to transcriptomics in prospective cancer design - new statistical challenges
Post -GWAS Transcriptomics Nested case -control Functional changes Biomarkers
2013/4/27
Background. With the increasing interest in post-GWAS research which represents a transition from genome-wide association discovery to analysis of functional mechanisms, attention has been lately focu...
Assessing the public health relevance of a risk factor
Risk factor prevalence disease incidence relative risk population-attributable risk c-index
2013/4/27
In a recent series of high impact public health publications, the c-index was used as measure of prediction to assess the public health relevance of a risk factor. I demonstrate that the c-index is an...
Explaining temporal trends in annualized relapse rates in placebo groups of randomized controlled trials in relapsing multiple sclerosis: systematic review and meta-regression
multiple sclerosis relapses annualized relapse rates placebo baseline characteristics eligibility criteria meta-analysis meta-regression systematic review
2013/4/27
Background: Recent studies have shown a decrease in annualised relapse rates (ARRs) in placebo groups of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS).
Methods: We conduc...
Personalized News Recommendation with Context Trees
Personalized News Recommendation Context Trees
2013/4/28
The profusion of online news articles makes it difficult to find interesting articles, a problem that can be assuaged by using a recommender system to bring the most relevant news stories to readers. ...
Growth Patterns of US Children from 1963 to 2012
Growth chart Body-mass-index (BMI) NS-EDW Obesity
2013/4/27
Anthropometric measurements such as weight, stature (height), and body mass index (BMI) provide reliable indicators of children's growth. The 2000 CDC growth charts are the national standards in the U...
Dynamics of stochastic non-Newtonian fluids driven by fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H \in (1/4,1/2)$
fractional Brownian motion stochastic non-Newtonian fluid
2011/7/19
In this paper we consider the Stochastic isothermal, nonlinear, incompressible bipolar viscous fluids driven by a genuine cylindrical fractional Bronwnian motion with Hurst parameter $H \in (1/4,1/2)$...
High-Dimensional Structure Estimation in Ising Models: Tractable Graph Families
Graphical model selection Ising models Greedy algorithms
2011/7/19
We consider the problem of high-dimensional Ising (graphical) model selection. We propose a simple algorithm for structure estimation based on the thresholding of the empirical conditional mutual info...
It has been argued by Daryl Bem in his 2011 paper that 8 out of 9 experiments yielded statistically significant results in favour of the psi effect.
Tight conditions for consistency of variable selection in the context of high dimensionality
variable selection nonparametric regression set estimation sparsity pattern
2011/7/6
We address the issue of variable selection in the regression model with very high ambient dimension, i.e., when the number of variables is very large. The main focus is on the situation where the numb...
Stochastic Search for Semiparametric Linear Regression Models
Stochastic Search Semiparametric Linear Regression Models
2011/7/6
This paper introduces and analyzes a stochastic search method for parameter estimation in linear regression models in the spirit of Beran and Millar (1987).
