چکیده
The dataset we will be using is a genome-wide association study of gender (Vawter et al., 2004). In this study, samples were taken postmortem from the brains of 10 individuals, 5 men and 5 women. Three samples were taken from different regions of the brain of each individual, and one aliquot of each sample was sent to each of 3 laboratories for analysis. There were two different microarray platforms used by these labs. The dataset was downloaded from . First, let’s load the data.

Improving mass-univariate analysis of neuroimaging data by modelling important unknown covariates: Application to Epigenome-Wide Association Studies
Statistical inference on neuroimaging data is often conducted using a mass-univariate model, equivalent to fitting a linear model at every voxel with a known set of covariates. Due to the large number of linear models, it is challenging to check if the selection of covariates is appropriate and to modify this selection adequately. The use of standard diagnostics, such as residual plotting, is c...
