HT-MMIOW: A Hypothesis Test approach for Microbiome Mediation using Inverse Odds Weighting [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The human microbiome has an important role in determining health. Mediation analyses quantify the contribution of the microbiome in the causal path between exposure and disease; however, current mediation models cannot fully capture the high dimensional, correlated, and compositional nature of microbiome data and do not typically accommodate ...

Asymmetric Inter‐Hemisphere Communication Contributes to Speech Acquisition of Toddlers with Cochlear Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study constructs machine‐learning models to resolve developmental relationships among auditory performance, auditory cortical processing, and functional connectivity of the bilateral language network during the first year of restored hearing. The results demonstrate that asymmetric inter‐hemisphere communication contributes significantly to

Kernel Methods for Unobserved Confounding: Negative Controls, Proxies, and Instruments [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Negative control is a strategy for learning the causal relationship between treatment and outcome in the presence of unmeasured confounding. The treatment effect can nonetheless be identified if two auxiliary variables are available: a negative control treatment (which has no effect on the actual outcome), and a negative control outcome (which is not ...
