Bayesian Nonparametric Policy Search with Application to Periodontal Recall Intervals [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Tooth loss from periodontal disease is a major public health burden in the United States. Standard clinical practice is to recommend a dental visit every six months; however, this practice is not evidence-based, and poor dental outcomes and increasing dental insurance premiums indicate room for improvement.

BAREB: A Bayesian repulsive biclustering model for periodontal data [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Preventing periodontal diseases (PD) and maintaining the structure and function of teeth are important goals for personal oral care. To understand the heterogeneity in patients with diverse PD patterns, we develop BAREB, a Bayesian repulsive biclustering method that can simultaneously cluster the PD patients and their tooth sites after taking the ...

Comparison of Partial- and Full-Mouth Examination in Periodontal Assessment Among Untreated Patients
Frontiers in Dentistry, 2009 Objective: Whole-mouth examination is generally considered as a gold standard for exact periodontal disease assessment. Partial mouth examination also has sometimes been used for this purpose, but its efficacy has been questioned.

Bayesian nonparametric multiway regression for clustered binomial data [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 We introduce a Bayesian nonparametric regression model for data with multiway (tensor) structure, motivated by an application to periodontal disease (PD) data. Our outcome is the number of diseased sites measured over four different tooth types for each subject, with subject-specific covariates available as predictors.
