Ordinary linear regression (OLR) assumes that response variables are continuous. Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) provide an extension to OLR since response variables can be continuous or discrete ...

This paper develops a class of models to deal with missing data from longitudinal studies. We assume that separate models for the primary response and missingness (e.g., number of missed visits) are ...

If program staff suspects you may have used AI tools to complete assignments in ways not explicitly authorized or suspect other violations of the honor code, they will contact you via email. Be sure ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are widely used to uncover novel genetic susceptibility loci for complex genetic diseases. If the true genetic model is known, the association test reflecting ...

Interpretability has drawn increasing attention in machine learning. Partially linear additive models provide an attractive middle ground between the simplicity of generalized linear model and the ...
