结构化收缩估计的回归建模方法AI 解读

Problems involving the simultaneous estimation of multiple parameters arise in many areas of theoretical and applied statistics. A canonical example is the estimation of a vector of normal means. Frequently, structural information about relationships between the parameters of interest is available. For example, in a gene expression denoising problem, genes with similar functions may have similar expression levels. Despite its importance, structural information has not been…

高维线性中介模型中间接效应的估计与推断AI 解读

Summary Mediation analysis is difficult when the number of potential mediators is larger than the sample size. In this paper we propose new inference procedures for the indirect effect in the presence of high-dimensional mediators for linear mediation models. We develop methods for both incomplete mediation, where a direct effect may exist, and complete mediation, where the direct effect is known to be absent. We prove consistency and asymptotic normality of our indirect…

多组大规模多重检验整合分析中的信号分类AI 解读

Summary The integrative analysis of multiple data sets is becoming increasingly important in many fields of research. When the same features are studied in several independent experiments, it can often be useful to analyse jointly the multiple sequences of multiple tests that result. It is frequently necessary to classify each feature into one of several categories, depending on the null and non-null configuration of its corresponding test statistics. The paper studies this…

用于识别遗传调控疾病基因的稀疏同时信号检测AI 解读

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and differential expression analyses have had limited success in finding genes that cause complex diseases such as heart failure (HF), a leading cause of death in the United States. This article proposes a new statistical approach that integrates GWAS and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data to identify important HF genes. For such genes, genetic variations that perturb its expression are also likely to influence disease risk.…
