• Title: The MELODIC family for simultaneous binary logistic regression in a reduced space
• Authors: Mark de Rooij and Patrick J. F. Groenen
• Abstract summary: We propose the MELODIC family for simultaneous binary logistic regression modeling. The model may be interpreted in terms of logistic regression coefficients or in terms of a biplot. Two applications are shown in detail: one relating personality characteristics to drug consumption profiles and one relating personality characteristics to depressive and anxiety disorders.

• Abstract: Logistic regression is a commonly used method for binary classification. Researchers often have more than a single binary response variable and simultaneous analysis is beneficial because it provides insight into the dependencies among response variables as well as between the predictor variables and the responses. Moreover, in such a simultaneous analysis the equations can lend each other strength, which might increase predictive accuracy. In this paper, we propose the MELODIC family for simultaneous binary logistic regression modeling. In this family, the regression models are defined in a Euclidean space of reduced dimension, based on a distance rule. The model may be interpreted in terms of logistic regression coefficients or in terms of a biplot. We discuss a fast iterative majorization (or MM) algorithm for parameter estimation. Two applications are shown in detail: one relating personality characteristics to drug consumption profiles and one relating personality characteristics to depressive and anxiety disorders. We present a thorough comparison of our MELODIC family with alternative approaches for multivariate binary data.

  We introduce a method, named Statistical Agnostic Regression (SAR), for evaluating the statistical significance of an ML-based linear regression. We define a threshold to establish that there is sufficient evidence with a probability of at least 1-eta to conclude that there is a linear relationship in the population between the explanatory (feature) and the response (label) variables.

A Structured Radial Basis Function Network is presented as an ensemble of multiple hypotheses predictors for regression problems. It is proved that this structured model can efficiently interpolate this tessellation and approximate the multiple hypotheses target distribution.

We provide simulation studies and data illustrations, which shed some light on the parameter learning behavior found in several popular regression mixture models reported in the literature.

  characterisation of the brain grey matter cytoarchitecture with quantitative sensitivity to soma density and volume remains an unsolved challenge in dMRI. We propose a new forward model, specifically a new system of equations, requiring a few relatively sparse b-shells. We then apply modern tools from Bayesian analysis known as likelihood-free inference (LFI) to invert our proposed model.

  Simulation-based inference enables learning the parameters of a model even when its likelihood cannot be computed in practice. One class of methods uses data simulated with different parameters to infer an amortized estimator for the likelihood-to-evidence ratio. We show that this approach can be formulated in terms of mutual information between model parameters and simulated data.

  We implement a two-step approach to multi-omic logistic regression in which variable selection is performed on each layer separately. Our approach should be preferred if the goal is to select as many relevant predictors as possible. Our proposed approach allows us to identify features that characterise cardiometabolic syndrome at the molecular level.
