Book High Dimensional Data Analysis in Cancer Research

Download or read book High Dimensional Data Analysis in Cancer Research written by Xiaochun Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-19 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multivariate analysis is a mainstay of statistical tools in the analysis of biomedical data. It concerns with associating data matrices of n rows by p columns, with rows representing samples (or patients) and columns attributes of samples, to some response variables, e.g., patients outcome. Classically, the sample size n is much larger than p, the number of variables. The properties of statistical models have been mostly discussed under the assumption of fixed p and infinite n. The advance of biological sciences and technologies has revolutionized the process of investigations of cancer. The biomedical data collection has become more automatic and more extensive. We are in the era of p as a large fraction of n, and even much larger than n. Take proteomics as an example. Although proteomic techniques have been researched and developed for many decades to identify proteins or peptides uniquely associated with a given disease state, until recently this has been mostly a laborious process, carried out one protein at a time. The advent of high throughput proteome-wide technologies such as liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy make it possible to generate proteomic signatures that facilitate rapid development of new strategies for proteomics-based detection of disease. This poses new challenges and calls for scalable solutions to the analysis of such high dimensional data. In this volume, we will present the systematic and analytical approaches and strategies from both biostatistics and bioinformatics to the analysis of correlated and high-dimensional data.

Book Statistical Inference from High Dimensional Data

Download or read book Statistical Inference from High Dimensional Data written by Carlos Fernandez-Lozano and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • Real-world problems can be high-dimensional, complex, and noisy • More data does not imply more information • Different approaches deal with the so-called curse of dimensionality to reduce irrelevant information • A process with multidimensional information is not necessarily easy to interpret nor process • In some real-world applications, the number of elements of a class is clearly lower than the other. The models tend to assume that the importance of the analysis belongs to the majority class and this is not usually the truth • The analysis of complex diseases such as cancer are focused on more-than-one dimensional omic data • The increasing amount of data thanks to the reduction of cost of the high-throughput experiments opens up a new era for integrative data-driven approaches • Entropy-based approaches are of interest to reduce the dimensionality of high-dimensional data

Book The Bootstrap and Edgeworth Expansion

Download or read book The Bootstrap and Edgeworth Expansion written by Peter Hall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph addresses two quite different topics, each being able to shed light on the other. Firstly, it lays the foundation for a particular view of the bootstrap. Secondly, it gives an account of Edgeworth expansion. The first two chapters deal with the bootstrap and Edgeworth expansion respectively, while chapters 3 and 4 bring these two themes together, using Edgeworth expansion to explore and develop the properties of the bootstrap. The book is aimed at graduate level for those with some exposure to the methods of theoretical statistics. However, technical details are delayed until the last chapter such that mathematically able readers without knowledge of the rigorous theory of probability will have no trouble understanding most of the book.

Book Applications of Synthetic High Dimensional Data

Download or read book Applications of Synthetic High Dimensional Data written by Sobczak-Michalowska, Marzena and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-03-25 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for tailored data for machine learning models is often unsatisfied, as it is considered too much of a risk in the real-world context. Synthetic data, an algorithmically birthed counterpart to operational data, is the linchpin for overcoming constraints associated with sensitive or regulated information. In high-dimensional data, where the dimensions of features and variables often surpass the number of available observations, the emergence of synthetic data heralds a transformation. Applications of Synthetic High Dimensional Data delves into the algorithms and applications underpinning the creation of synthetic data, which surpass the capabilities of authentic datasets in many cases. Beyond mere mimicry, synthetic data takes center stage in prioritizing the mathematical domain, becoming the crucible for training robust machine learning models. It serves not only as a simulation but also as a theoretical entity, permitting the consideration of unforeseen variables and facilitating fundamental problem-solving. This book navigates the multifaceted advantages of synthetic data, illuminating its role in protecting the privacy and confidentiality of authentic data. It also underscores the controlled generation of synthetic data as a mechanism to safeguard private information while maintaining a controlled resemblance to real-world datasets. This controlled generation ensures the preservation of privacy and facilitates learning across datasets, which is crucial when dealing with incomplete, scarce, or biased data. Ideal for researchers, professors, practitioners, faculty members, students, and online readers, this book transcends theoretical discourse.

Book Inference for Functional Data with Applications

Download or read book Inference for Functional Data with Applications written by Lajos Horváth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recently developed statistical methods and theory required for the application of the tools of functional data analysis to problems arising in geosciences, finance, economics and biology. It is concerned with inference based on second order statistics, especially those related to the functional principal component analysis. While it covers inference for independent and identically distributed functional data, its distinguishing feature is an in depth coverage of dependent functional data structures, including functional time series and spatially indexed functions. Specific inferential problems studied include two sample inference, change point analysis, tests for dependence in data and model residuals and functional prediction. All procedures are described algorithmically, illustrated on simulated and real data sets, and supported by a complete asymptotic theory. The book can be read at two levels. Readers interested primarily in methodology will find detailed descriptions of the methods and examples of their application. Researchers interested also in mathematical foundations will find carefully developed theory. The organization of the chapters makes it easy for the reader to choose an appropriate focus. The book introduces the requisite, and frequently used, Hilbert space formalism in a systematic manner. This will be useful to graduate or advanced undergraduate students seeking a self-contained introduction to the subject. Advanced researchers will find novel asymptotic arguments.

The authors begin with a fundamental presentation of the basic tools and exact distributional results of multivariate statistics, and, in addition, the derivations of most distributional results are provided. Statistical methods for high-dimensional data, such as curve data, spectra, images, and DNA microarrays, are discussed. Bootstrap approximations from a methodological point of view, theoretical accuracies in MANOVA tests, and model selection criteria are also presented. Subsequent chapters feature additional topical coverage including: High-dimensional approximations of various statistics High-dimensional statistical methods Approximations with computable error bound Selection of variables based on model selection approach Statistics with error bounds and their appearance in discriminant analysis, growth curve models, generalized linear models, profile analysis, and multiple comparison Each chapter provides real-world applications and thorough analyses of the real data. In addition, approximation formulas found throughout the book are a useful tool for both practical and theoretical statisticians, and basic results on exact distributions in multivariate analysis are included in a comprehensive, yet accessible, format. Multivariate Statistics is an excellent book for courses on probability theory in statistics at the graduate level. It is also an essential reference for both practical and theoretical statisticians who are interested in multivariate analysis and who would benefit from learning the applications of analytical probabilistic methods in statistics.
