Robust linear regression methods in association studies
MOTIVATION It is well known that data deficiencies, such as coding/rounding errors, outliers or missing values, may lead to misleading results for many statistical methods. Robust statistical methods are designed to accommodate certain types of those deficiencies, allowing for reliable results under various conditions. We analyze the case of statistical tests to detect associations between geno...
متن کاملLinear Regression in Genetic Association Studies
In genomic research phenotype transformations are commonly used as a straightforward way to reach normality of the model outcome. Many researchers still believe it to be necessary for proper inference. Using regression simulations, we show that phenotype transformations are typically not needed and, when used in phenotype with heteroscedasticity, result in inflated Type I error rates. We furthe...
متن کاملRobust Estimation in Linear Regression with Molticollinearity and Sparse Models
One of the factors affecting the statistical analysis of the data is the presence of outliers. The methods which are not affected by the outliers are called robust methods. Robust regression methods are robust estimation methods of regression model parameters in the presence of outliers. Besides outliers, the linear dependency of regressor variables, which is called multicollinearity...
متن کاملNew Robust Face Recognition Methods Based on Linear Regression
Nearest subspace (NS) classification based on linear regression technique is a very straightforward and efficient method for face recognition. A recently developed NS method, namely the linear regression-based classification (LRC), uses downsampled face images as features to perform face recognition. The basic assumption behind this kind method is that samples from a certain class lie on their ...
متن کاملRobust High-Dimensional Linear Regression
The effectiveness of supervised learning techniques has made them ubiquitous in research and practice. In high-dimensional settings, supervised learning commonly relies on dimensionality reduction to improve performance and identify the most important factors in predicting outcomes. However, the economic importance of learning has made it a natural target for adversarial manipulation of trainin...
