Intrinsic Regression Models for Medial Representation of Subcortical Structures
皮层下结构中轴表示的内蕴回归模型
The aim of this paper is to develop a semiparametric model for describing the variability of the medial representation of subcortical structures, which belongs to a Riemannian manifold, and establishing its association with covariates of interest, such as diagnostic status, age and gender. We develop a two-stage estimation procedure to calculate the parameter estimates. The first stage is to calculate an intrinsic least squares estimator of the parameter vector using the…
