惩罚回归学习动态治疗方案的泛化误差界AI 解读

A dynamic treatment regime (DTR) is a sequence of decision rules, one per stage of intervention, that maps up-to-date patient information to a recommended treatment. Discovering an appropriate DTR for a given disease is a challenging issue especially when a large set of prognostic variables are observed. To address this problem, we propose penalized regression-based learning methods with l1 penalty to estimate the optimal DTR that would maximize the expected outcome if…

利用纵向移动健康数据学习个性化干预策略AI 解读

Personalized policy represents a paradigm shift from one-decision-rule-for-all users to an individualized decision rule for each user. Developing personalized policy in mobile health applications imposes challenges. First, for lack of adherence, data from each user are limited. Second, unmeasured contextual factors can potentially impact on decision making. Aiming to optimize immediate rewards, we propose using a generalized linear mixed modeling framework where population…

分位数回归中的边际线性效应检验AI 解读

Summary The paper develops a new marginal testing procedure to detect significant predictors that are associated with the conditional quantiles of a scalar response. The idea is to fit the marginal quantile regression on each predictor one at a time, and then to base the test on the t-statistics that are associated with the most predictive predictors. A resampling method is devised to calibrate this test statistic, which has non-regular limiting behaviour due to the…

个体化治疗规则的性能保证AI 解读

Because many illnesses show heterogeneous response to treatment, there is increasing interest in individualizing treatment to patients [11]. An individualized treatment rule is a decision rule that recommends treatment according to patient characteristics. We consider the use of clinical trial data in the construction of an individualized treatment rule leading to highest mean response. This is a difficult computational problem because the objective function is the…
