Multiple hypothesis testing problems arise frequently in biomedical and genomic research, for instance, when identifying differentially expressed or co-expressed genes in microarray experiments. We have developed generally applicable resampling-based single-step and stepwise multiple testing procedures (MTP) for control of a broad class of Type I error rates, defined as tail probabilities and expected values for arbitrary functions of the numbers of false positives and rejected hypotheses (Dudoit and van der Laan, 2005; Dudoit et al., 2004a,b; Pollard and van der Laan, 2004; van der Laan et al., 2005, 2004a,b). As argued in the early article of Pollard and van der …

On Additive Regression Of Expectancy, Ying Qing Chen

UW Biostatistics Working Paper Series

Regression models have been important tools to study the association between outcome variables and their covariates. The traditional linear regression models usually specify such an association by the expectations of the outcome variables as function of the covariates and some parameters. In reality, however, interests often focus on their expectancies characterized by the conditional means. In this article, a new class of additive regression models is proposed to model the expectancies. The model parameters carry practical implication, which may allow the models to be useful in applications such as treatment assessment, resource planning or short-term forecasting. Moreover, the new model …
