Retire: Robust Expectile Regression in High Dimensions

no code implementations11 Dec 2022 Rebeka Man, Kean Ming Tan, Zian Wang, Wen-Xin Zhou

In this paper, we propose and study (penalized) robust expectile regression (retire), with a focus on iteratively reweighted $\ell_1$-penalization which reduces the estimation bias from $\ell_1$-penalization and leads to oracle properties.

Exponential Family Graphical Models: Correlated Replicates and Unmeasured Confounders, with Applications to fMRI Data

no code implementations9 Dec 2020 Yanxin Jin, Yang Ning, Kean Ming Tan

Motivated by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies, we propose a novel method for constructing brain connectivity networks with correlated replicates and latent effects.

Model Linkage Selection for Cooperative Learning

no code implementations15 May 2020 Jiaying Zhou, Jie Ding, Kean Ming Tan, Vahid Tarokh

The main crux is to sequentially incorporate additional learners that can enhance the prediction accuracy of an existing joint model based on user-specified parameter sharing patterns across a set of learners.

Estimating and Inferring the Maximum Degree of Stimulus-Locked Time-Varying Brain Connectivity Networks

no code implementations28 May 2019 Kean Ming Tan, Junwei Lu, Tong Zhang, Han Liu

To address this issue, neuroscientists have been measuring brain activity under natural viewing experiments in which the subjects are given continuous stimuli, such as watching a movie or listening to a story.

A convex formulation for high-dimensional sparse sliced inverse regression

no code implementations17 Sep 2018 Kean Ming Tan, Zhaoran Wang, Tong Zhang, Han Liu, R. Dennis Cook

Sliced inverse regression is a popular tool for sufficient dimension reduction, which replaces covariates with a minimal set of their linear combinations without loss of information on the conditional distribution of the response given the covariates.

Sparse Generalized Eigenvalue Problem: Optimal Statistical Rates via Truncated Rayleigh Flow

no code implementations29 Apr 2016 Kean Ming Tan, Zhaoran Wang, Han Liu, Tong Zhang

Sparse generalized eigenvalue problem (GEP) plays a pivotal role in a large family of high-dimensional statistical models, including sparse Fisher's discriminant analysis, canonical correlation analysis, and sufficient dimension reduction.

Local Uncertainty Sampling for Large-Scale Multi-Class Logistic Regression

no code implementations27 Apr 2016 Lei Han, Kean Ming Tan, Ting Yang, Tong Zhang

A major challenge for building statistical models in the big data era is that the available data volume far exceeds the computational capability.

Selection Bias Correction and Effect Size Estimation under Dependence

no code implementations16 May 2014 Kean Ming Tan, Noah Simon, Daniela Witten

Many authors have proposed methods to reduce the effects of selection bias under the assumption that the naive estimates of the effect sizes are independent.

Learning Graphical Models With Hubs

no code implementations28 Feb 2014 Kean Ming Tan, Palma London, Karthik Mohan, Su-In Lee, Maryam Fazel, Daniela Witten

We consider the problem of learning a high-dimensional graphical model in which certain hub nodes are highly-connected to many other nodes.

The Cluster Graphical Lasso for improved estimation of Gaussian graphical models

no code implementations19 Jul 2013 Kean Ming Tan, Daniela Witten, Ali Shojaie

We begin by introducing a surprising connection between the graphical lasso and hierarchical clustering: the graphical lasso in effect performs a two-step procedure, in which (1) single linkage hierarchical clustering is performed on the variables in order to identify connected components, and then (2) an l1-penalized log likelihood is maximized on the subset of variables within each connected component.
