My research interests include
causal mediation analysis of big data problem;
(generalized) regression for covariance matrix outcomes.
Mediation model with correlated errors for unmeasured confounding.
Integrate Granger causality to account for spatio-temporal dependency.
Treatment, mediator and outcome are all functional data.
Study dynamics in the causal effects.
Integrate data collected from two sources following a biological mechanistic assumption.
Treat data from different imaging modalities as two blocks of high-dimensional mediators.
Integrate principal component analysis principle with generalized linear model.
In the projection space, data variation depends on covariates through a log-linear model.
Identify linear projection and model coefficient simultaneously.
Application in resting-state fMRI study.
Brain subnetwork (component) identified in a resting-state fMRI study shows significant treatment effect in semantic aphasia patients.
