Integrative genomic data analysis is a powerful tool to study the complex biological processes behind a disease. Statistical methods can model the interrelationships of the involved gene activities through jointly analyzing multiple types of genomic data from different platforms (vertical integration), or improve the power of a study through aggregating the same type of genomic data across studies (horizontal integration). In this dissertation, we propose statistical methods and strategies for integrative multi-omics data in association analysis of disease phenotypes, with an emphasis on cancer applications.
We develop a new strategy based on horizontal integration by leveraging publicly available datasets into …
