Published in 2017 at "JAMA Oncology"

DOI: 10.1001/jamaoncol.2016.2164

Abstract: Importance Large regional variation exists in the use of radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Although patients who do not receive initial radiotherapy for DCIS are candidates for subsequent BCS… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72230

Abstract: ABSTRACT Highly polymorphic markers like microsatellites are extensively utilized in genomic studies to analyze and infer genealogical relationships among individuals in a population. Traditional methods to identify the most likely parent among the potential known… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Environmetrics"

DOI: 10.1002/env.2546

Abstract: This paper develops a likelihood for sequences of extremes when observations are dependent in time. The likelihood allows researchers to obtain more realistic standard errors of the generalized extreme‐value parameters. As a motivating example, annual… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Human Mutation"

DOI: 10.1002/humu.23818

Abstract: The multifactorial likelihood analysis method has demonstrated utility for quantitative assessment of variant pathogenicity for multiple cancer syndrome genes. Independent data types currently incorporated in the model for assessing BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants include clinically… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Journal of the experimental analysis of behavior"

DOI: 10.1002/jeab.824

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity to investigate factors related to public response to public health measures, which could help better prepare implementation of similar measures for inevitable future pandemics. To understand individual and environmental… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.70298

Abstract: Despite increasingly widespread use, complex joint models for longitudinal and survival data can be difficult to estimate. Notably, this could be due to the computation of the intractable integral over random effects involved in the… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Statistics in medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.8338

Abstract: Frailty models are widely used to model clustered survival data arising in multicenter clinical studies. In the literature, most existing frailty models are proportional hazards, additive hazards, or accelerated failure time model based. In this… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Statistics in medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.8765

Abstract: In this article, we develop a so-called profile likelihood ratio test (PLRT) based on the estimated error density for the multiple linear regression model. Unlike the existing likelihood ratio test (LRT), our proposed PLRT does… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Statistics in medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.8902

Abstract: Rathouz and Gao [2] and Luo and Tsai [3] proposed valuable extensions to the generalized linear model for modeling a nonlinear monotonic relationship between the mean response and a set of covariates. In their extensions… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9371

Abstract: It is a common practice in public health research that multiple biomarkers are collected to diagnose or predict a disease outcome. A natural question is how to combine multiple biomarkers to improve the diagnostic accuracy.… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9420

Abstract: Outbreaks of an endemic infectious disease can occur when the disease is introduced into a highly susceptible subpopulation or when the disease enters a network of connected individuals. For example, significant HIV outbreaks among people… read more here.
