Monotone Cubic B-Splines with a Neural-Network Generator
Lijun Wang, Xiaodan Fan, Huabai Li +1
We present a method for fitting monotone curves using cubic B-splines, which is equivalent to putting a monotonicity constraint on the coefficients. We explore different ways of en…
A Geometric Statistic for Quantifying Correlation Between Tree-Shaped Datasets
Shanjun Mao, Xiaodan Fan, Jie Hu
The magnitude of Pearson correlation between two scalar random variables can be visually judged from the two-dimensional scatter plot of an independent and identically distributed…
Nonparametric Statistical Inference and Imputation for Incomplete Categorical Data
Chaojie Wang, Linghao Shen, Han Li +1
Missingness in categorical data is a common problem in various real applications. Traditional approaches either utilize only the complete observations or impute the missing data by…
The EM Algorithm and the Rise of Computational Biology
Xiaodan Fan, Yuan Yuan, Jun S. Liu
In the past decade computational biology has grown from a cottage industry with a handful of researchers to an attractive interdisciplinary field, catching the attention and imagin…
