Learned Hemodynamic Coupling Inference in Resting-State Functional MRI

William Consagra, Eardi Lila

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides an indirect measurement of neuronal activity via hemodynamic responses that vary across brain regions and individuals. Ignorin…

Dimension-reduced outcome-weighted learning for estimating individualized treatment regimes in observational studies

Sungtaek Son, Eardi Lila, Kwun Chuen Gary Chan

Individualized treatment regimes (ITRs) aim to improve clinical outcomes by assigning treatment based on patient-specific characteristics. However, existing methods often struggle…

Asymmetric canonical correlation analysis of Riemannian and high-dimensional data

James Buenfil, Eardi Lila

In this paper, we introduce a novel statistical model for the integrative analysis of Riemannian-valued functional data and high-dimensional data. We apply this model to explore th…

Eigen-Adjusted Functional Principal Component Analysis

Ci-Ren Jiang, Eardi Lila, John AD Aston +1

Functional Principal Component Analysis (FPCA) has become a widely-used dimension reduction tool for functional data analysis. When additional covariates are available, existing FP…

Interpretable discriminant analysis for functional data supported on random nonlinear domains with an application to Alzheimer's disease

Eardi Lila, Wenbo Zhang, Swati Rane Levendovszky

We introduce a novel framework for the classification of functional data supported on nonlinear, and possibly random, manifold domains. The motivating application is the identifica…

Functional random effects modeling of brain shape and connectivity

Eardi Lila, John A. D. Aston

We present a statistical framework that jointly models brain shape and functional connectivity, which are two complex aspects of the brain that have been classically studied indepe…

Representation and reconstruction of covariance operators in linear inverse problems

Eardi Lila, Simon Arridge, John A. D. Aston

We introduce a framework for the reconstruction and representation of functions in a setting where these objects cannot be directly observed, but only indirect and noisy measuremen…

Statistical Analysis of Functions on Surfaces, with an application to Medical Imaging

Eardi Lila, John A. D. Aston

In Functional Data Analysis, data are commonly assumed to be smooth functions on a fixed interval of the real line. In this work, we introduce a comprehensive framework for the ana…
