从脑电读数样本推断脑信号同步性AI 解读

Inferring patterns of synchronous brain activity from a heterogeneous sample of electroencephalograms (EEG) is scientifically and methodologically challenging. While it is intuitively and statistically appealing to rely on readings from more than one individual in order to highlight recurrent patterns of brain activation, pooling information across subjects presents non-trivial methodological problems. We discuss some of the scientific issues associated with the…

考虑测量误差的病例序列模型：老年透析患者感染与心血管风险AI 解读

Infection and cardiovascular disease are leading causes of hospitalization and death in older patients on dialysis. Our recent work found an increase in the relative incidence of cardiovascular outcomes during the ~ 30 days after infection-related hospitalizations using the case series model, which adjusts for measured and unmeasured baseline confounders. However, a major challenge in modeling/assessing the infection-cardiovascular risk hypothesis is that the exact time of…

纵向数据的函数型变系数模型AI 解读

The proposed functional varying coefficient model provides a versatile and flexible analysis tool for relating longitudinal responses to longitudinal predictors. Specifically, this approach provides a novel representation of varying coefficient functions through suitable auto and cross-covariances of the underlying stochastic processes, which is particularly advantageous for sparse and irregular designs, as often encountered in longitudinal studies. Existing methodology for…

通过变系数模型进行协变量调整回归推断AI 解读

We consider covariate adjusted regression (CAR), a regression method for situations where predictors and response are observed after being distorted by a multiplicative factor. The distorting factors are unknown functions of an observable covariate, where one specific distorting function is associated with each predictor or response. The dependence of both response and predictors on the same confounding covariate may alter the underlying regression relation between…

协变量调整回归AI 解读

We introduce covariate-adjusted regression for situations where both predictors and response in a regression model are not directly observable, but are contaminated with a multiplicative factor that is determined by the value of an unknown function of an observable covariate. We demonstrate how the regression coefficients can be estimated by establishing a connection to varying-coefficient regression. The proposed covariate-adjustment method is illustrated with an analysis…
