Cool Fusion Statistical Modelling for Data Fusion

ABSTRACT The consequences of the use of probability in modelling under uncertainty are explored, and it is shown how data and parameter independence and likelihood modularity emerge as desirable properties for statistical models. They lead directly to multi-object models which themselves create the association problem. The expectation-maximisation (EM) technique is introduced and then applied t...

Statistical file matching of flow cytometry data

Flow cytometry is a technology that rapidly measures antigen-based markers associated to cells in a cell population. Although analysis of flow cytometry data has traditionally considered one or two markers at a time, there has been increasing interest in multidimensional analysis. However, flow cytometers are limited in the number of markers they can jointly observe, which is typically a fracti...

A statistical framework for genomic data fusion

MOTIVATION During the past decade, the new focus on genomics has highlighted a particular challenge: to integrate the different views of the genome that are provided by various types of experimental data. RESULTS This paper describes a computational framework for integrating and drawing inferences from a collection of genome-wide measurements. Each dataset is represented via a kernel function...
