Nonparametric Statistical Inference via Metric Distribution Function in Metric Spaces
Xueqin Wang, Jin Zhu, Wenliang Pan +2
Distribution function is essential in statistical inference, and connected with samples to form a directed closed loop by the correspondence theorem in measure theory and the Glive…
A super scalable algorithm for short segment detection
Ning Hao, Yue Selena Niu, Feifei Xiao +1
In many applications such as copy number variant (CNV) detection, the goal is to identify short segments on which the observations have different means or medians from the backgrou…
Multiple Change-point Detection: a Selective Overview
Yue S. Niu, Ning Hao, Heping Zhang
Very long and noisy sequence data arise from biological sciences to social science including high throughput data in genomics and stock prices in econometrics. Often such data are…
Computing Affine Combinations, Distances, and Correlations for Recursive Partition Functions
Sean Skwerer, Heping Zhang
Recursive partitioning is the core of several statistical methods including CART, random forest, and boosted trees. Despite the popularity of tree based methods, to date, there did…
The screening and ranking algorithm to detect DNA copy number variations
Yue S. Niu, Heping Zhang
DNA Copy number variation (CNV) has recently gained considerable interest as a source of genetic variation that likely influences phenotypic differences. Many statistical and compu…
