The knockoff filter, recently developed by Barber and Candes, is an effective procedure to perform variable selection with a controlled false discovery rate (FDR). We propose a private version of the knockoff filter by incorporating…
A key assumption in most existing works on FL algorithms' convergence analysis is that the noise in stochastic first-order information has a finite variance. Although this assumption covers all light-tailed (i.e., sub-exponential) and some…
Extracting associations that recur across multiple studies while controlling the false discovery rate is a fundamental challenge. Here, we consider an extension of Efron's single-study two-groups model to allow joint analysis of multiple…
Estimating local false discovery rates (fdr) is central to large-scale multiple hypothesis testing, yet different methods often produce divergent results, and there is little guidance for selecting among them. Because ground truth…
Motivated by the gene co-expression pattern analysis, we propose a novel sample quantile-based contingency (squac) statistic to infer quantile associations conditioning on covariates. It features enhanced flexibility in handling variables…
The family-wise error rate (FWER) has been widely used in genome-wide association studies. With the increasing availability of functional genomics data, it is possible to increase the detection power by leveraging these genomic functional…
We run stochastic simulations of the spatial version of the rock-paper-scissors game, considering that individuals use sensory abilities to scan the environment to detect the presence of enemies. If the local dangerousness level is above a…
Consider the problem of testing multiple null hypotheses. A classical approach to dealing with the multiplicity problem is to restrict attention to procedures that control the familywise error rate ($FWER$), the probability of even one…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have led to the discovery of numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with various phenotypes and complex diseases. However, the identified genetic variants do not fully explain the…
We present a new method based on Functional Data Analysis (FDA) for detecting associations between one or more scalar covariates and a longitudinal response, while correcting for other variables. Our methods exploit the temporal structure…
Feature selection prepares the AI-readiness of data by eliminating redundant features. Prior research falls into two primary categories: i) Supervised Feature Selection, which identifies the optimal feature subset based on their relevance…
For large-scale testing with graph-associated data, we present an empirical Bayes mixture technique to score local false discovery rates. Compared to empirical Bayes procedures that ignore the graph, the proposed method gains power in…

Factor-adjusted multiple testing is used for handling strong correlated tests. Since most of previous works control the false discovery rate under sparse alternatives, we develop a two-step method, namely the AdaFAT, for any true false…

In this article, we propose a novel strategy for conducting variable selection without prior model topology knowledge using the knockoff method with boosted tree models. Our method is inspired by the original knockoff method, where the…
Microbiota profiles measure the structure of microbial communities in a defined environment (known as microbiomes). In the past decade, microbiome research has focused on health applications as a result of which the gut microbiome has been…
Obesity is a critical global health issue driven by dietary, physiological, and environmental factors, and is strongly associated with chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, and cancer. Machine learning has emerged as…
Current backdoor attacks against federated learning (FL) strongly rely on universal triggers or semantic patterns, which can be easily detected and filtered by certain defense mechanisms such as norm clipping, comparing parameter…
