  • Higher order asymptotics for negative binomial regression inferences from RNA-sequencing data 
    Di, Yanming; Emerson, Sarah C.; Schafer, Daniel W.; Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.; Chang, Jeff H. (De Gruyter, 2013-03)
    RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is the current method of choice for characterizing transcriptomes and quantifying gene expression changes. This next generation sequencing-based method provides unprecedented depth and resoluti ...
  • Estimating agreement coefficients from sample survey data 
    Lin, Hung-Mo; Kim, Hae-Young; Williamson, John M.; Lesser, Virginia M. (Statistics Canada, 2012-06)
    We present a generalized estimating equations approach for estimating the concordance correlation coefficient and the kappa coefficient from sample survey data. The estimates and their accompanying standard error need t ...
  • Mapping the Global Emergence of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus 
    Olson, Deanna H.; Aanensen, David M.; Ronnenberg, Kathryn L.; Powell, Christopher I.; Walker, Susan F.; Bielby, Jon; Garner, Trenton W. J.; Weaver, George; The Bd Mapping Group; Fisher, Matthew C. (Public Library of Science, 2013-02-27)
    The rapid worldwide emergence of the amphibian pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is having a profound negative impact on biodiversity. However, global research efforts are fragmented and an overarching synthes ...
  • Differential investment in twin offspring by female pronghorns (Antilocapra americana) 
    Van Vuren, Dirk H.; Bray, Martin P.; Heltzel, Jeannie M. (American Society of Mammalogists, 2013-02)
    Differential investment in offspring has been reported for many mammals, often in the context of the Trivers– Willard model of male-biased investment, but evidence of differential investment in pronghorns (Antilocapra ...
  • Length Bias Correction in Gene Ontology Enrichment Analysis Using Logistic Regression 
    Mi, Gu; Di, Yanming; Emerson, Sarah; Cumbie, Jason S.; Chang, Jeff H. (Public Library of Science, 2012-10-02)
    When assessing differential gene expression from RNA sequencing data, commonly used statistical tests tend to have greater power to detect differential expression of genes encoding longer transcripts. This phenomenon, ca ...
