The standard methods for detecting differential gene expression are mostly designed for analyzing a single gene expression experiment. When data from multiple related gene expression studies are available, separately analyzing each study is…
Next-generation sequencing technologies now constitute a method of choice to measure gene expression. Data to analyze are read counts, commonly modeled using Negative Binomial distributions. A relevant issue associated with this…
In many transcriptomic studies, the correlation of genes might fluctuate with quantitative factors such as genetic ancestry. We propose a method that models the covariance between two variables to vary against a continuous covariate. For…
Discovering a correlation from one variable to another variable is of fundamental scientific and practical interest. While existing correlation measures are suitable for discovering average correlation, they fail to discover hidden or…
Correlation remains to be one of the most widely used statistical tools for assessing the strength of relationships between data series. This paper presents a novel compositional correlation method for detecting linear and nonlinear…
Given data obtained under two sampling conditions, it is often of interest to identify variables that behave differently in one condition than in the other. We introduce a method for differential analysis of second-order behavior called…
Motivated by differential co-expression analysis in genomics, we consider in this paper estimation and testing of high-dimensional differential correlation matrices. An adaptive thresholding procedure is introduced and theoretical…
This paper treats the problem of screening for variables with high correlations in high dimensional data in which there can be many fewer samples than variables. We focus on threshold-based correlation screening methods for three related…
DNA microarray experiments, a well-established experimental technique, aim at understanding the function of genes in some biological processes. One of the most common experiments in functional genomics research is to compare two groups of…
It is well known that correlations in microarray data represent a serious nuisance deteriorating the performance of gene selection procedures. This paper is intended to demonstrate that the correlation structure of microarray data provides…
Motivation: Algorithms for differential analysis of microarray data are vital to modern biomedical research. Their accuracy strongly depends on effective treatment of inter-gene correlation. Correlation is ordinarily accounted for in terms…
Two-component mixture models are particularly useful for identifying differentially expressed genes, but their performance can deteriorate markedly when the alternative distribution departs from parametric assumptions or symmetry. We…
Background: Selecting feature genes to predict phenotypes is one of the typical tasks in analyzing genomics data. Though many general-purpose algorithms were developed for prediction, dealing with highly correlated genes in the prediction…
We present the extention and application of a new unsupervised statistical learning technique--the Partition Decoupling Method--to gene expression data. Because it has the ability to reveal non-linear and non-convex geometries present in…
This article concerns testing for equality of distribution between groups. We focus on screening variables with shared distributional features such as common support, modes and patterns of skewness. We propose a Bayesian testing method…
Differential co-expression analysis has been widely applied by scientists in understanding the biological mechanisms of diseases. However, the unknown differential patterns are often complicated; thus, models based on simplified parametric…
Genome-wide gene expression profiles, as measured with microarrays or RNA-Seq experiments, have revolutionized biological and biomedical research by providing a quantitative measure of the entire mRNA transcriptome. Typically, researchers…
Microarray data are often used to determine which genes are differentially expressed between groups, for example, between treatment and control groups. There are methods of determining which genes have a high probability of differential…
Identifying interacting partners from two sets of protein sequences has important applications in computational biology. Interacting partners share similarities across species due to their common evolutionary history, and feature…
Unsupervised anomaly detection aims to identify anomalous samples from highly complex and unstructured data, which is pervasive in both fundamental research and industrial applications. However, most existing methods neglect the complex…
