Regression with Ordered Predictors via Ordinal Smoothing Splines
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2017 Many applied studies collect one or more ordered categorical predictors, which do not fit neatly within classic regression frameworks. In most cases, ordinal predictors are treated as either nominal (unordered) variables or metric (continuous) variables ...

, 2020 Regression discontinuity (RD) is a widely used quasi-experimental design for causal inference. In the standard RD, the assignment to treatment is determined by a continuous pretreatment variable (i.e., running variable) falling above or below a pre-fixed

Statistical measures of the association between two ordinal variables
Slovak Journal of Sport Science, 2021 Questionnaire surveys often deal with items by which we would like to identify possible associations. These items/variables can be measured on the basis of nominal, ordinal or interval scale.

Regularization and Model Selection with Categorial Effect Modifiers [PDF]
, 2010 The case of continuous effect modifiers in varying-coefficient models has been well investigated. Categorial effect modifiers, however, have been largely neglected.

Ordinal Log-Linear Models for Contingency Tables
Folia Oeconomica Stetinensia, 2016 A log-linear analysis is a method providing a comprehensive scheme to describe the association for categorical variables in a contingency table. The log-linear model specifies how the expected counts depend on the levels of the categorical variables for ...

Association of Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry With Ambulatory Ability After Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Ambulatory ability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important to patients. We tested whether asymmetry between ipsi‐ and contra‐lesional corticospinal tracts (CSTs) assessed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is associated with post‐ICH ambulation.

Unbiased split selection for classification trees based on the Gini Index [PDF]
, 2005 The Gini gain is one of the most common variable selection criteria in machine learning. We derive the exact distribution of the maximally selected Gini gain in the context of binary classification using continuous predictors by means of a combinatorial ...

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.
