Settings with competing risks occur frequently in clinical research. Missing data, which is a common problem in research, occurs when the value of a variable is recorded for some, but not all, records in the dataset. Multiple Imputation (MI) is a popular method to address the presence of missing data. MI uses an imputation model to generate M (M &gt; 1) values for each variable that is missing, resulting in the creation of M complete datasets. A popular algorithm for imputing missing data is multivariate imputation using chained equations (MICE). We used a complex simulation design with covariates and missing data patterns reflective of patients hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to compare three strategies for imputing missing predictor variables when the analysis model is a cause-specific hazard when there were three different event types. We compared two MICE-based strategies that differed according to which cause-specific cumulative hazard functions were included in the imputation models (the three cause-specific cumulative hazard functions vs. only the cause-specific cumulative hazard function for the primary outcome) with the use of the substantive model compatible fully conditional specification (SMCFCS) algorithm. While no strategy had consistently superior performance compared to the other strategies, SMCFCS may be the preferred strategy. We illustrated the application of the strategies using a case study of patients hospitalized with AMI.</p>","PeriodicalId":55223,"journal":{"name":"Computational Statistics","volume":"176 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141510861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although most existing testing methods do not allow covariates, except for a dichotomized continuous covariate, they have generally been applied. Through an analytic bias analysis and a numerical study, we show that the current practice is not free from an inflated type I error and a loss of power. To overcome this limitation, we develop a bootstrap-based test that allows additional covariates and dichotomizes two-dimensional covariates into a binary variable. In addition, we develop an efficient algorithm to speed up the calculation of the proposed test statistic.

However, a common issue encountered in some practical data sets is the presence of highly spiky null distributions. Existing methods struggle to control type I error in such cases due to the “inflated false positives,\" but this problem has not been addressed in previous literature. Our team recently encountered this issue while analyzing SET4 gene deletion data and proposed modeling the null distribution using a scale mixture normal distribution. However, the use of this approach is limited due to strong assumptions on the spiky peak. In this paper, we present a novel multiple test procedure that can be applied to any type of spiky peak data, including situations with no spiky peak or with one or two spiky peaks. Our approach involves truncating the central statistics around 0, which primarily contribute to the null spike, as well as the two tails that may be contaminated by alternative distributions. We refer to this method as the “double truncation method.\" After applying double truncation, we estimate the null density using the doubly truncated maximum likelihood estimator. We demonstrate numerically that our proposed method effectively controls the false discovery rate at the desired level using simulated data. Furthermore, we apply our method to two real data sets, namely the SET protein data and peony data.</p>","PeriodicalId":55223,"journal":{"name":"Computational Statistics","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141256347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its projection problem is not easy to solve in general because it is based on the Kullback–Leibler divergence from a restricted posterior predictive distribution of the so-called reference model to the parameter-conditional predictive distribution of a candidate model. Previous work showed how this projection problem can be solved for response families employed in generalized linear models and how an approximate latent-space approach can be used for many other response families. Here, we present an exact projection method for all response families with discrete and finite support, called the augmented-data projection. A simulation study for an ordinal response family shows that the proposed method performs better than or similarly to the previously proposed approximate latent-space projection. The cost of the slightly better performance of the augmented-data projection is a substantial increase in runtime. Thus, if the augmented-data projection’s runtime is too high, we recommend the latent projection in the early phase of the model-building workflow and the augmented-data projection for final results. The ordinal response family from our simulation study is supported by both projection methods, but we also include a real-world cancer subtyping example with a nominal response family, a case that is not supported by the latent projection.</p>","PeriodicalId":55223,"journal":{"name":"Computational Statistics","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141165753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
