Detecting the skewness of data from the five-number summary and its application in meta-analysis

Jiandong Shi, Dehui Luo, Xiang Wan +4

For clinical studies with continuous outcomes, when the data are potentially skewed, researchers may choose to report the whole or part of the five-number summary (the sample media…

Estimating the reciprocal of a binomial proportion

Jiajin Wei, Ping He, Tiejun Tong

As a classic parameter from the binomial distribution, the binomial proportion has been well studied in the literature owing to its wide range of applications. In contrast, the rec…

A Pairwise Hotelling Method for Testing High-Dimensional Mean Vectors

Zongliang Hu, Tiejun Tong, Marc G. Genton

For high-dimensional small sample size data, Hotelling's T2 test is not applicable for testing mean vectors due to the singularity problem in the sample covariance matrix. To overc…

Optimally estimating the sample standard deviation from the five-number summary

Jiandong Shi, Dehui Luo, Hong Weng +4

When reporting the results of clinical studies, some researchers may choose the five-number summary (including the sample median, the first and third quartiles, and the minimum and…

Varying Coefficient Panel Data Model with Interactive Fixed Effects

Sanying Feng, Gaorong Li, Heng Peng +1

In this paper, we propose a varying coefficient panel data model with unobservable multiple interactive fixed effects that are correlated with the regressors. We approximate each c…

TFisher Tests: Optimal and Adaptive Thresholding for Combining -Values

Hong Zhang, Tiejun Tong, John E Landers +1

For testing a group of hypotheses, tremendous -value combination methods have been developed and widely applied since 1930's. Some methods (e.g., the minimal -value) are opti…

How to estimate the sample mean and standard deviation from the five number summary?

Jiandong Shi, Dehui Luo, Hong Weng +3

In some clinical studies, researchers may report the five number summary (including the sample median, the first and third quartiles, and the minimum and maximum values) rather tha…

Diagonal Likelihood Ratio Test for Equality of Mean Vectors in High-Dimensional Data

Zongliang Hu, Tiejun Tong, Marc G. Genton

We propose a likelihood ratio test framework for testing normal mean vectors in high-dimensional data under two common scenarios: the one-sample test and the two-sample test with e…

SIMEX estimation for single-index model with covariate measurement error

Yiping Yang, Tiejun Tong, Gaorong Li

In this paper, we consider the single-index measurement error model with mismeasured covariates in the nonparametric part. To solve the problem, we develop a simulation-extrapolati…

Estimating the sample mean and standard deviation from the sample size, median, range and/or interquartile range

Xiang Wan, Wenqian Wang, Jiming Liu +1

In systematic reviews and meta-analysis, researchers often pool the results of the sample mean and standard deviation from a set of similar clinical trials. A number of the trials,…

Non-parametric shrinkage mean estimation for quadratic loss functions with unknown covariance matrices

Cheng Wang, Tiejun Tong, Longbing Cao +1

In this paper, a shrinkage estimator for the population mean is proposed under known quadratic loss functions with unknown covariance matrices. The new estimator is non-parametric…
