Supplementary Material for: Penalized Logistic Regression Analysis for Genetic Association Studies of Binary Phenotypes by Yu Y. (3096192)

“…We consider two approximate approaches to maximizing the marginal likelihood: (i) a Monte Carlo EM algorithm (MCEM) and (ii) a Laplace approximation (LA) to each integral, followed by derivative-free optimization of the approximation. …”

Thesis-RAMIS-Figs_Slides by Felipe Santibañez-Leal (10967991)

“…In the context of facies recovery using simulations, the task of optimal sampling is formalized and addressed using a maximum information extraction criterion. …”

Variable Selection with Multiply-Imputed Datasets: Choosing Between Stacked and Grouped Methods by Jiacong Du (12035845)

“…Building on existing work, we (i) derive and implement efficient cyclic coordinate descent and majorization-minimization optimization algorithms for continuous and binary outcome data, (ii) incorporate adaptive shrinkage penalties, (iii) compare these methods through simulation, and (iv) develop an R package <i>miselect</i>. …”

Active Learning Accelerated Discovery of Stable Iridium Oxide Polymorphs for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction by Raul A. Flores (2910539)

“…Additionally, the AL approach can acquire the most stable polymorphs of IrO₂ and IrO₃ with fewer than 30 density functional theory optimizations. Analysis of the structural properties of the discovered polymorphs reveals that octahedral local coordination environments are preferred for nearly all low-energy structures. …”
