Inference for covariate adjusted regression via varying coefficient models [PDF]
Annals of Statistics 2006, Vol. 34, No. 2, 654-679, 2006 We consider covariate adjusted regression (CAR), a regression method for situations where predictors and response are observed after being distorted by a multiplicative factor. The distorting factors are unknown functions of an observable covariate, where one specific distorting function is associated with each predictor or response.

Evaluation of an automated choroid segmentation algorithm in a longitudinal kidney donor and recipient cohort [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Purpose: To evaluate the performance of an automated choroid segmentation algorithm in optical coherence tomography (OCT) data using a longitudinal kidney donor and recipient cohort. Methods: We assessed 22 donors and 23 patients requiring renal transplantation over up to 1 year post-transplant.

Covariate-adjusted nonlinear regression [PDF]
Annals of Statistics 2009, Vol. 37, No. 4, 1839-1870, 2009 In this paper, we propose a covariate-adjusted nonlinear regression model. In this model, both the response and predictors can only be observed after being distorted by some multiplicative factors. Because of nonlinearity, existing methods for the linear setting cannot be directly employed.
