A novel functional additive model is proposed, which is uniquely modified and constrained to model nonlinear interactions between a treatment indicator and a potentially large number of functional and/or scalar pretreatment covariates. The primary motivation for this approach is to optimize individualized treatment rules based on data from a randomized clinical trial. We generalize functional additive regression models by incorporating treatment-specific components into additive effect components. A structural constraint is imposed on the treatment-specific components in order to provide a class of additive models with main effects and interaction effects that are orthogonal to each other. If primary interest is in the interaction between treatment and the covariates, as is generally the case when optimizing individualized treatment rules, we can thereby circumvent the need to estimate the main effects of the covariates, obviating the need to specify their form and thus avoiding the issue of model misspecification. The methods are illustrated with data from a depression clinical trial with electroencephalogram functional data as patients' pretreatment covariates. 相似文献

Phylogeny and biogeography of ratite birds inferred from DNA sequences of the mitochondrial ribosomal genes 总被引:7,自引:2,他引:5
The origin of the flightless ratite birds of the southern continents has
been debated for over a century. Whether dispersal or vicariance
(continental breakup) best explains their origin depends largely on their
phylogenetic relationships. No consensus has been reached on this issue
despite many morphological and molecular studies. To address this question
further we sequenced a 2.8-kb region of mitochondrial DNA containing the
ribosomal genes in representative ratites and a tinamou. Phylogenetic
analyses indicate that Struthio (Africa) is basal and Rhea (South America)
clusters with living Australasian ratites. This phylogeny agrees with
transferrin and DNA hybridization studies but not with sequence analyses of
some protein-coding genes. These results also require reevaluation of the
phylogenetic position of the extinct moas of New Zealand. We propose a new
hypothesis for the origin of ratites that combines elements of dispersal
and vicariance.
