High Predictive Performance Models via Semi-Parametric Survival Regression. This project will develop novel statistical models for high prediction performance. When applied to help doctor to treat patients, these models allow the users to include gene or other biomarkers for predicting effectiveness of a treatment. When applied to risk management in finance, these models are capable to include an organization's or individual's ongoing finance status to predict, for example, the probability of or ....High Predictive Performance Models via Semi-Parametric Survival Regression. This project will develop novel statistical models for high prediction performance. When applied to help doctor to treat patients, these models allow the users to include gene or other biomarkers for predicting effectiveness of a treatment. When applied to risk management in finance, these models are capable to include an organization's or individual's ongoing finance status to predict, for example, the probability of or time to loan default. Innovative computational methods will be developed for fitting these models. Compared to traditional prediction method, this approach allows greater flexibility while being superior in terms of statistical accuracy and bias. Extensive analyses of healthcare data from diverse fields will be undertaken.Read moreRead less

Summary
Statistical frameworks for high-parameter imaging cytometry data. The project aims to develop statistical and bioinformatics methodology for characterising the complex interactions between cells in their native environment. Recent advances in imaging cytometry technologies have made it possible to observe the behaviour of multiple cell-types in tissue concurrently. The intended outcome is a suite of statistical methodologies that are crucial for addressing a variety of biological problems with t ....Statistical frameworks for high-parameter imaging cytometry data. The project aims to develop statistical and bioinformatics methodology for characterising the complex interactions between cells in their native environment. Recent advances in imaging cytometry technologies have made it possible to observe the behaviour of multiple cell-types in tissue concurrently. The intended outcome is a suite of statistical methodologies that are crucial for addressing a variety of biological problems with these state-of-the-art technologies. This work will advance knowledge in bioinformatics, statistics and image analysis, providing benefits to scientists studying the fundamental behaviour of cells and underlying disease mechanisms.Read moreRead less
