AlgorithmsStochastic Process Mining, in particular, Markov processes, is used to represent uncertainty and variability in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). However, the Markov models inherently assume that the time spent in each state must follow an exponential ...

Multiple Imputation for Robust Cluster Analysis to Address Missingness in Medical Data
IEEE AccessCluster analysis has been applied to a wide range of problems as an exploratory tool to enhance knowledge discovery. Clustering aids disease subtyping, i.e. identifying homogeneous patient subgroups, in medical data.

The Search Problem in Mixture Models
J. Mach. Learn. Res., 2016 We consider the task of learning the parameters of a {\em single} component of a mixture model, for the case when we are given {\em side information} about that component, we call this the "search problem" in mixture models. We would like to solve this with computational and sample complexity lower than solving the overall original problem, where one ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Nephrogenic rests (NRs) and nephroblastomatosis (NBM) are precursor lesions for development of Wilms tumor (WT). Their association with the risk of relapse has not been properly assessed, partly due to misunderstanding of their diagnostic criteria and terminology.

Regularized joint mixture models
J. Mach. Learn. Res., 2019 Regularized regression models are well studied and, under appropriate conditions, offer fast and statistically interpretable results. However, large data in many applications are heterogeneous in the sense of harboring distributional differences between latent groups. Then, the assumption that the conditional distribution of response Y given features X

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Japan's 2024 physician work‐style reform introduced legally binding limits on physicians’ working hours, but its impact on education and workforce sustainability in pediatric hematology–oncology (PHO) remains unclear. Procedure We conducted a repeated cross‐sectional study with structured quantitative items and free‐text responses ...

label.switching: An R Package for Dealing with the Label Switching Problem in MCMC Outputs
Journal of Statistical Software, 2016 Label switching is a well-known and fundamental problem in Bayesian estimation of mixture or hidden Markov models. In case that the prior distribution of the model parameters is the same for all states, then both the likelihood and posterior distribution

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.
