This technology has enabled the study of the spatial variation of the genes across the tissue. Comprehending gene functions and interactions in different areas of the tissue is of great scientific interest, as it might lead to a deeper understanding of several key biological mechanisms, such as cell-cell communication or tumor-microenvironment interaction. To do so, one can group cells of the same type and genes that exhibit similar expression patterns. However, adequate statistical tools that exploit the previously unavailable spatial information to more coherently group cells and genes are still lacking. In this work, we introduce SpaRTaCo, a new statistical model that clusters the spatial expression profiles of the genes according to a partition of the tissue. This is accomplished by performing a co-clustering, i.e., inferring the latent block structure of the data and inducing two types of clustering: of the genes, using their expression across the tissue, and of the image areas, using the gene expression in the <i>spots</i> where the RNA is collected.

However, the EHR data are notoriously noisy due to missing and inaccurate inputs despite the information is abundant. One serious problem is that only a small portion of patients in the database has confirmatory diagnoses while many other patients remain undiagnosed because they did not comply with the recommended examinations. The phenomenon leads to a so-called positive-unlabelled situation and the labels are extremely imbalanced. In this paper, we propose a model-based approach to classify the unlabelled patients by using a Bayesian finite mixture model. We also discuss the label switching issue for the imbalanced data and propose a consensus Monte Carlo approach to address the imbalance issue and improve computational efficiency simultaneously. Simulation studies show that our proposed model-based approach outperforms existing positive-unlabelled learning algorithms.

Compared to conventional landmark prediction with fixed landmark times, our methods allow the landmark times to be subject-specific and triggered by an intermediate clinical event. Moreover, the nonparametric approach circumvents the thorny issue of model incompatibility at different landmark times. In our framework, both the longitudinal predictors and the event time outcome are subject to right censoring, and thus existing tree-based approaches cannot be directly applied. To tackle the analytical challenges, we propose a risk-set-based ensemble procedure by averaging martingale estimating equations from individual trees.

Understanding the risk of preoperative opioid use helps establish patient-centered pain management. In the field of machine learning, deep neural network (DNN) has emerged as a powerful means for risk assessment because of its superb prediction power; however, the blackbox algorithms may make the results less interpretable than statistical models. Bridging the gap between the statistical and machine learning fields, we propose a novel Interpretable Neural Network Regression (INNER), which combines the strengths of statistical and DNN models. We use the proposed INNER to conduct individualized risk assessment of preoperative opioid use. Intensive simulations and an analysis of 34,186 patients expecting surgery in the Analgesic Outcomes Study (AOS) show that the proposed INNER not only can accurately predict the preoperative opioid use using preoperative characteristics as DNN, but also can estimate the patient-specific odds of opioid use without pain and the odds ratio of opioid use for a unit increase in the reported overall body pain, leading to more straight-forward interpretations of the tendency to use opioids than DNN. Our results identify the patient characteristics that are strongly associated with opioid use and is largely consistent with the previous findings, providing evidence that INNER is a useful tool for individualized risk assessment of preoperative opioid use.</p>","PeriodicalId":50772,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Applied Statistics","volume":"17 1","pages":"434-453"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10065608/pdf/nihms-1836641.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9282926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our ability to predict their response to the warming ocean relies on understanding how the dynamics of phytoplankton populations is influenced by changes in environmental conditions. One powerful technique to study the dynamics of phytoplankton is flow cytometry which measures the optical properties of thousands of individual cells per second. Today, oceanographers are able to collect flow cytometry data in real time onboard a moving ship, providing them with fine-scale resolution of the distribution of phytoplankton across thousands of kilometers. One of the current challenges is to understand how these small- and large-scale variations relate to environmental conditions, such as nutrient availability, temperature, light and ocean currents. In this paper we propose a novel sparse mixture of multivariate regressions model to estimate the time-varying phytoplankton subpopulations while simultaneously identifying the specific environmental covariates that are predictive of the observed changes to these subpopulations.

One important task in phylodynamics is to estimate changes in (effective) population size. When applied to infectious disease sequences such estimation of population size trajectories can provide information about changes in the number of infections. To model changes in the number of infected individuals, current phylodynamic methods use non-parametric approaches (e.g., Bayesian curve-fitting based on change-point models or Gaussian process priors), parametric approaches (e.g., based on differential equations), and stochastic modeling in conjunction with likelihood-free Bayesian methods. The first class of methods yields results that are hard to interpret epidemiologically. The second class of methods provides estimates of important epidemiological parameters, such as infection and removal/recovery rates, but ignores variation in the dynamics of infectious disease spread. The third class of methods is the most advantageous statistically, but relies on computationally intensive particle filtering techniques that limits its applications. We propose a Bayesian model that combines phylodynamic inference and stochastic epidemic models, and achieves computational tractability by using a linear noise approximation (LNA) - a technique that allows us to approximate probability densities of stochastic epidemic model trajectories. LNA opens the door for using modern Markov chain Monte Carlo tools to approximate the joint posterior distribution of the disease transmission parameters and of high dimensional vectors describing unobserved changes in the stochastic epidemic model compartment sizes (e.g., numbers of infectious and susceptible individuals). In a simulation study, we show that our method can successfully recover parameters of stochastic epidemic models.
