Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, which causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior. Growing evidence has shown that the brain connectivity network experiences alterations for such a complex disease.…
As the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) rises, improving mechanistic insight from non-invasive biomarkers is increasingly critical. Recent work suggests that circuit-level brain alterations manifest as changes in…
We introduce DiffKnock, a diffusion-based knockoff framework for high-dimensional feature selection with finite-sample false discovery rate (FDR) control. DiffKnock addresses two key limitations of existing knockoff methods: preserving…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive accumulation of misfolded proteins, leading to cognitive decline. This study presents a novel stochastic modelling approach to simulate the…
Background: Alzheimers disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the main cause of dementia in aging. Hippocampus is prone to changes in the early stages of Alzheimers disease. Detection and observation of the hippocampus…
Although sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are crucial for identifying interpretable features in neural networks, it is still challenging to distinguish between real computational patterns and erroneous correlations. We introduce Model-X knockoffs…
In medical time series disease diagnosis, two key challenges are identified.First, the high annotation cost of medical data leads to overfitting in models trained on label-limited, single-center datasets. To address this, we propose…
Large-scale multiple testing under static factor models is widely used to detect sparse signals in high-dimensional data. However, static factor models are arguably too stringent because they ignore serial correlation, which seriously…
In this paper, we present a novel region-based segmentation method for cortical spreading depressions in 2-photon microscopy images. Fluorescent microscopy has become an important tool in neuroscience, but segmentation approaches are…
As a general and robust alternative to traditional mean regression models, quantile regression avoids the assumption of normally distributed errors, making it a versatile choice when modeling outcomes such as cognitive scores that typically…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection employs machine learning classification models to distinguish between individuals with AD and those without. Different from conventional classification tasks, we identify within-class variation as a…
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease (AD), particularly at the mild cognitive impairment stage, is essential for timely intervention. However, this process faces significant barriers, including reliance on subjective assessments and the…
Identifying variants that carry substantial information on the trait of interest remains a core topic in genetic studies. In analyzing the EADB-UKBB dataset to identify genetic variants associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), however, we…
We propose new methods to obtain simultaneous false discovery proportion bounds for knockoff-based approaches. We first investigate an approach based on Janson and Su's $k$-familywise error rate control method and interpolation. We then…
While data-driven confounder selection requires careful consideration, it is frequently employed in observational studies. Widely recognized criteria for confounder selection include the minimal-set approach, which involves selecting…
The automatic early diagnosis of prodromal stages of Alzheimer's disease is of great relevance for patient treatment to improve quality of life. We address this problem as a multi-modal classification task. Multi-modal data provides richer…
Controlling the false discovery rate (FDR) in high-dimensional variable selection requires balancing rigorous error control with statistical power. Existing methods with provable guarantees are often overly conservative, creating a…
This paper introduces a parallel directional fast multipole method (FMM) for solving N-body problems with highly oscillatory kernels, with a focus on the Helmholtz kernel in three dimensions. This class of oscillatory kernels requires a…
