Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age
ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

Jackknife bias‐corrected variance estimation for the generalized regression estimator
Abstract Commonly used variance estimators for the generalized regression estimator (GREG) are based on Taylor linearization and jackknife. Traditionally, a jackknife GREG variance estimator is obtained by jackknifing GREG, which consists of computing GREG from each of several subsamples of the parent sample, and estimating the variance of the parent ...

Dynamic survival risk prediction with time‐varying high‐dimensional images
Abstract Integrating longitudinal data with survival models is a prevalent strategy for dynamic survival risk prediction while accounting for subjects' longitudinally observed variables. However, existing methods primarily focus on scalar longitudinal data and seldom tackle the complexities associated with high‐dimensional longitudinal imaging data ...

Addressing Non-IID with Data Quantity Skew in Federated Learning
Non-IID is one of the key challenges in federated learning. Data heterogeneity may lead to slower convergence, reduced accuracy, and more training rounds.

Copula‐based joint modelling of emergency department visits with time‐varying dependence
Abstract Jointly modelling multiple correlated count time series is essential in health services research, where outcomes like emergency visits for mental health and substance use often evolve together. Ignoring these dependencies can obscure meaningful trends and limit the effectiveness of policy evaluation.

CHPFL: Clustered adaptive hierarchical federated learning for edge-level personalization
Federated learning faces challenges with non-IID data distributions, often resulting in suboptimal performance for individual clients with the global model. To address this issue, we propose a clustered hierarchical personalized federated learning (CHPFL)

Vine copula knockoffs for variable selection in gene expression studies
Abstract Identifying clinical and genetic markers is essential for stratifying cancer patients by survival outcomes and guiding personalized treatment strategies. However, gene expression studies often involve high‐dimensional predictors with mixed data types and complex dependence, which complicates reliable variable selection.

Abstract Homogeneous normalized random measures with independent increments represent a broad class of Bayesian nonparametric priors and thus are widely used. In this article, we obtain the strong law of large numbers, the central limit theorem (CLT), and the functional central limit theorem (fCLT) of such measures when the concentration parameter a ...
