Despite its growing popularity for hierarchical composite endpoints, the win ratio poses a challenge for meta-analysis, as earlier studies typically do not report such measures. In the absence of subject-level data, we show how to approxima...

We introduce a generalized Bayesian credible set that can achieve any preassigned credible level, addressing a limitation of the current credible sets. This is achieved by exploiting a connection between the highest posterior density set an...

Let { X ( t ) , t ∈ M } and Z t ' , t ' ∈ M ' be smooth Gaussian random fields parameterized on Riemannian manifolds M and M ' , respectively, such that X ( t ) = Z ( f ( t ) ) , where f : M → M ' is a diff...

The K-sample testing problem involves determining whether K groups of data points are each drawn from the same distribution. Analysis of variance is arguably the most classical method to test mean differences, along with several recent meth...

This work defines a new correction for the likelihood ratio test for a two-sample problem within the multivariate normal context. This correction applies to decomposable graphical models, where testing equality of distributions can be decom...

We consider identification and inference about a counterfactual outcome mean when there is unmeasured confounding using tools from proximal causal inference. Proximal causal inference requires existence of solutions to at least one of two i...

Spatial scan statistics are commonly used to detect clustering. We present a Bayesian spatial scan statistic for multinomial data. After validating our method with a simulation study, we use it to detect clusters of SARS-CoV-2 infection/imm...

Recently, Wang and Tchetgen Tchetgen (2018) showed that the global average treatment effect is identifiable even in the presence of unmeasured confounders so long as they do not modify the instrument's additive effect on the treatment. We u...

Neural networks have become increasingly popular in the field of machine learning and have been successfully used in many applied fields (e.g., imaging recognition). With more and more research has been conducted on neural networks, we have...

Deep learning has achieved great successes in many machine learning tasks. However, the deep neural networks (DNNs) are often severely over-parameterized, making them computationally expensive, memory intensive, less interpretable and mis-c...
