SUMMARY:Biostatistics Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Fred Hutch Biostatistics Program hosts seminars featuring presentations by Hutch and outside scientists to share their latest developments and recent research. Each seminar includes an hour-long presentation and discussion during which speakers showcase their work and findings. \nThis seminar will be held on Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nBiostatistics Seminar Series:  \n“The role of mathematical and computational modeling in lung cancer epidemiology and prevention; screening\, e-cigarettes and other new challenges 70 years after Doll and Hill” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeventy years after the seminal smoking and lung cancer work of Doll\, Hill\, Wynder and Graham\, lung cancer remains as the main cause of cancer death globally. While smoking and lung cancer rates are decreasing in the US and screening and treatment improvements provide new tools in the fight against lung cancer\, new challenges are arising\, including the emergence of e-cigarettes and the continuing disparities in lung cancer outcomes by race and income. Since the 1950s\, mathematical modeling has played an important role in advancing our knowledge of lung cancer biology and epidemiology\, and in shaping lung cancer prevention and control strategies. In this talk I will describe the contributions of mathematical and computational modeling in cancer epidemiology and prevention\, highlighting recent applications in tobacco control and lung cancer prevention\, and discussing modeling’s role as we move to a new era of lung cancer research.

SUMMARY:Biostatistics Seminar Series: “Nonparametric Array Learning and its Applications in Neuroimaging”
DESCRIPTION:The Fred Hutch Biostatistics Program hosts seminars featuring presentations by Hutch and outside scientists to share their latest developments and recent research. Each seminar includes an hour-long presentation and discussion during which speakers showcase their work and findings. \nThis seminar will be held on Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nBiostatistics Seminar Series:  \n“Nonparametric array learning and its applications in neuroimaging” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArray-valued predictors ubiquitously arise in brain connectivity studies\, sensor network localization\, and integrative genomics. We consider the problem of learning the relationship between a scale-valued response and a high-dimensional array-valued predictor. Traditional regression methods take a parametric procedure by imposing a priori functional form between variables. These parametric models\, however\, are inadequate for structure learning and often fail in accurate prediction. Here\, we develop a learning reduction framework to address a range of learning tasks from classification to regression for matrix-valued predictors. Our proposal achieves interpretable prediction via a low-rank two-way sparse halfspace learning for the target function level sets. Statistical accuracy\, excess risk bounds\, and efficient algorithms are established. We demonstrate the advantage of our method over previous approaches through applications to human brain connectome data. Time allowed\, I will present our recent results on nonparametric approaches to tensor estimation and completion. \n\n\n\n\n\nDate:\nWednesday\, February 03\, 2021\n\n\nStart Time:\n12 p.m. PST\n\n\nHost or Sponsor:\nBiostatistics Seminar Series\n\n\nLocation:\nZoom Webinar\n\nhttps://zoom.us/j/95933099692?pwd=ZTBvOWZCK01KTFRCVnFUSjdJeXF5UT09 \n\n\n\nSpeaker or Presenter:\nMiaoyan Wang\n\n\nContact Information:\nshirata@fredhutch.org

SUMMARY:Biostatistics Seminar Series: “Nonparametric Array Learning and its Applications in Neuroimaging”
DESCRIPTION:The Fred Hutch Biostatistics Program hosts seminars featuring presentations by Hutch and outside scientists to share their latest developments and recent research. Each seminar includes an hour-long presentation and discussion during which speakers showcase their work and findings. \nThis seminar will be held on Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nBiostatistics Seminar Series:  \n“Nonparametric array learning and its applications in neuroimaging” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArray-valued predictors ubiquitously arise in brain connectivity studies\, sensor network localization\, and integrative genomics. We consider the problem of learning the relationship between a scale-valued response and a high-dimensional array-valued predictor. Traditional regression methods take a parametric procedure by imposing a priori functional form between variables. These parametric models\, however\, are inadequate for structure learning and often fail in accurate prediction. Here\, we develop a learning reduction framework to address a range of learning tasks from classification to regression for matrix-valued predictors. Our proposal achieves interpretable prediction via a low-rank two-way sparse halfspace learning for the target function level sets. Statistical accuracy\, excess risk bounds\, and efficient algorithms are established. We demonstrate the advantage of our method over previous approaches through applications to human brain connectome data. Time allowed\, I will present our recent results on nonparametric approaches to tensor estimation and completion. \n\n\n\n\n\nDate:\nWednesday\, February 03\, 2021\n\n\nStart Time:\n12 p.m. PST\n\n\nHost or Sponsor:\nBiostatistics Seminar Series\n\n\nLocation:\nZoom Webinar\n\nhttps://zoom.us/j/95933099692?pwd=ZTBvOWZCK01KTFRCVnFUSjdJeXF5UT09 \n\n\n\nSpeaker or Presenter:\nMiaoyan Wang\n\n\nContact Information:\nshirata@fredhutch.org
