A Practical Framework for Incorporating Complex Survey Design in Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression [PDF]
Large-scale population datasets are rarely generated via simple random sampling; instead, they reflect complex designs involving stratification, clustering, and unequal inclusion probabilities.

Statistical software for analyzing the health effects of multiple concurrent exposures via Bayesian kernel machine regression [PDF]
Background Estimating the health effects of multi-pollutant mixtures is of increasing interest in environmental epidemiology. Recently, a new approach for estimating the health effects of mixtures, Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR), has been ...

We propose a Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) framework for count outcomes with dynamic spatiotemporal dependence. The proposed model, termed Negative Binomial BKMR with spatiotemporal effects (NB-BKMR), integrates (i) a negative binomial ...

Health effects of air pollutant mixtures on overall mortality among the elderly population using Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR). [PDF]
It is well documented that fine particles matter (PM2.5), ozone (O3), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are associated with a range of adverse health outcomes. However, most epidemiologic studies have focused on understanding their additive effects, despite that individuals are exposed to multiple air pollutants simultaneously that are likely correlated with ...

Flexible statistical approaches for modeling nonlinear relationships in diabetes prediction using splines, Bayesian kernel regression and Bayesian regression trees [PDF]
Modeling nonlinear relationships is a fundamental challenge in statistical analysis, particularly when predictors exhibit complex and interacting effects on outcomes.
