A New Nonparametric Regression for Longitudinal Data
In many area of medical research, a relation analysis between one response variable and some explanatory variables is desirable. Regression is the most common tool in this situation. If we have some assumptions for such normality for response variable, we could use it. In this paper we propose a nonparametric regression that does not have normality assumption for response variable and we focus ...
متن کاملCombining information from linkage and association mapping for next-generation sequencing longitudinal family data
In this analysis, we investigate the contributions that linkage-based methods, such as identical-by-descent mapping, can make to association mapping to identify rare variants in next-generation sequencing data. First, we identify regions in which cases share more segments identical-by-descent around a putative causal variant than do controls. Second, we use a two-stage mixed-effect model approa...
متن کاملCompensating for Missing Data from Longitudinal Studies Using WinBUGS
Missing data is a common problem in survey based research. There are many packages that compensate for missing data but few can easily compensate for missing longitudinal data. WinBUGS compensates for missing data using multiple imputation, and is able to incorporate longitudinal structure using random effects. We demonstrate the superiority of longitudinal imputation over cross-sectional imput...
متن کاملProbabilistic Data Generation for Deduplication and Data Linkage
In many data mining projects the data to be analysed contains personal information, like names and addresses. Cleaning and preprocessing of such data likely involves deduplication or linkage with other data, which is often challenged by a lack of unique entity identifiers. In recent years there has been an increased research effort in data linkage and deduplication, mainly in the machine learni...
متن کاملSelection strategies for linkage studies using twins.
Genetic linkage analysis for complex diseases offers a major challenge to geneticists. In these complex diseases multiple genetic loci are responsible for the disease and they may vary in the size of their contribution; the effect of any single one of them is likely to be small. In many situations, like in extensive twin registries, trait values have been recorded for a large number of individu...
