Causal mediation analysis, pleiotropy analysis, and replication analysis are three highly popular genetic study designs. Although these analyses address different scientific questions, the underlying inference problems all involve large-scale testing of composite null hypotheses. The goal is to determine whether all null hypotheses - as opposed to at least one - in a set of individual tests should simultaneously be rejected. Various recent methodology has been proposed for the aforementioned situations, and an appealing empirical Bayes strategy is to apply the popular two-group model, calculating local false discovery rates (lfdr) for each set of hypotheses. However, such a strategy is difficult due to the need for multivariate density estimation. Furthermore, the multiple testing rules for the empirical Bayes lfdr approach and conventional frequentist z-statistics can disagree, which is troubling for a field that ubiquitously utilizes summary statistics. This work proposes a framework to unify two-group testing in genetic association composite null settings, the conditionally symmetric multidimensional Gaussian mixture model (csmGmm). The csmGmm is shown to demonstrate more robust operating characteristics than recently-proposed alternatives. Crucially, the csmGmm also offers strong interpretability guarantees by harmonizing lfdr and z-statistic testing rules. We extend the base csmGmm to cover each of the mediation, pleiotropy, and replication settings, and we prove that the lfdr z-statistic agreement holds in each situation. We apply the model to a collection of translational lung cancer genetic association studies that motivated this work.

Causal representation learning (CRL) aims to learn low-dimensional causal latent variables from high-dimensional observations. While identifiability has been extensively studied for CRL, estimation has been less explored. In this paper, we explore the use of empirical Bayes (EB) to estimate causal representations. In particular, we consider the problem of learning from data from multiple domains, where differences between domains are modeled by interventions in a shared…

Scientists often need to analyze the samples in a study that responded to treatment in order to refine their hypotheses and find potential causal drivers of response. Natural variation in outcomes makes teasing apart responders from non-responders a statistical inference problem. To handle latent responses, we introduce the causal two-groups (C2G) model, a causal extension of the classical two-groups model. The C2G model posits that treated samples may or may not experience…

High-dimensional variable selection has emerged as one of the prevailing statistical challenges in the big data revolution. Many variable selection methods have been adapted for identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked to phenotypic variation in genome-wide association studies. We develop a Bayesian variable selection regression model for identifying SNPs linked to phenotypic variation. We modify our Bayesian variable selection regression models to control…

Sequential decision making significantly speeds up research and is more cost-effective compared to fixed-n methods. We present a method for sequential decision making for stratified count data that retains Type-I error guarantee or false discovery rate under optional stopping, using e-variables. We invert the method to construct stratified anytime-valid confidence sequences, where cross-talk between subpopulations in the data can be allowed during data collection to improve…

Time Varying Functional Connectivity (TVFC) investigates how the interactions among brain regions vary over the course of an fMRI experiment. The transitions between different individual connectivity states can be modulated by changes in underlying physiological mechanisms that drive functional network dynamics, e.g., changes in attention or cognitive effort as measured by pupil dilation. In this paper, we develop a multi-subject Bayesian framework for estimating dynamic…
