A crossed random effects modeling approach for estimating diagnostic accuracy from ordinal ratings without a gold standard
Statistics in medicine ·doi:10.1002/sim.5784

In diagnostic studies without a gold standard, the assumption on the dependence structure of the multiple tests or raters plays an important role in model performance. In case of binary disease status, both conditional independence and cros…

Estimating Diagnostic Accuracy of Raters Without a Gold Standard by Exploiting a Group of Experts
Biometrics ·doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2012.01789.x

In diagnostic medicine, estimating the diagnostic accuracy of a group of raters or medical tests relative to the gold standard is often the primary goal. When a gold standard is absent, latent class models where the unknown gold standard te…

Latent class models for joint analysis of disease prevalence and high-dimensional semicontinuous biomarker data
Biostatistics (Oxford, England) ·doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxr024

High-dimensional biomarker data are often collected in epidemiological studies when assessing the association between biomarkers and human disease is of interest. We develop a latent class modeling approach for joint analysis of high-dimens…

Use of multiple assays subject to detection limits with regression modeling in assessing the relationship between exposure and outcome
Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.) ·doi:10.1097/EDE.0b013e3181ce9eed

BACKGROUND: The goal of many studies in environmental epidemiology is to assess the relationship between chemical exposure and disease outcome. Often various assays can be used to measure a particular environmental exposure, with some assay…
