Study Design in Clinical and Epidemiologic Research: Observational, Experimental, and Beyond

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Population‐based epidemiology and clinical research are complementary and mutually reinforcing: Epidemiology quantifies disease incidence/prevalence and elucidates environmental and social determinants in populations, whereas clinical research evaluates biomarkers, therapeutics, and prognostic outcomes in patients; their convergence underpins ...

Collapsibility for Directed Acyclic Graphs

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, 2009
Abstract. Collapsibility means that the same statistical result of interest can be obtained before and after marginalization over some variables. In this paper, we discuss three kinds of collapsibility for directed acyclic graphs (DAGs): estimate collapsibility, conditional independence collapsibility and model collapsibility. Related to collapsibility,

On counting homomorphisms to directed acyclic graphs

Journal of the ACM, 2006
It is known that if P and NP are different then there is an infinite hierarchy of different complexity classes that lie strictly between them. Thus, if P ≠ NP, it is not possible to classify NP using any finite collection of complexity classes. This situation has led to attempts to identify smaller classes of problems within NP where

On Mergings in Acyclic Directed Graphs

SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2019
Summary: Consider an acyclic directed graph \(G\) with sources \(s_1, s_2, \ldots,s_n\) and sinks \(r_1, r_2, \ldots, r_n\). For \(i=1, 2, \ldots,n\), let \(c_i\) denote the size of the minimum edge cut between \(s_i\) and \(r_i\), which, by Menger's theorem, implies that there exists a group of \(c_i\) edge-disjoint paths from \(s_i\) to \(r_i ...

Signed Directed Acyclic Graphs for Causal Inference

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2010
Formal rules governing signed edges on causal directed acyclic graphs are described and it is shown how these rules can be useful in reasoning about causality. Specifically, the notions of a monotonic effect, a weak monotonic effect and a signed edge are
