Two-mode clustering methods: a structured overview.

Abstract

In this paper we present a structured overview of methods for two-mode clustering, that is, methods that provide a simultaneous clustering of the rows and columns of a rectangular data matrix. Key structuring principles include the nature of row, column and data clusters and the type of model structure or associated loss function. We illustrate with analyses of symptom data on archetypal psychiatric patients.

Clustering individuals using INMTD: a novel versatile multi-view embedding framework integrating omics and imaging data.

MOTIVATION: Combining omics and images can lead to a more comprehensive clustering of individuals than classic single-view approaches. Among the various approaches for multi-view clustering, nonnegative matrix tri-factorization (NMTF) and nonnegative Tucker decomposition (NTD) are advantageous in learning low-rank embeddings with promising interpretability. Besides, there is a need to handle unwanted drivers of clusterings (i.e. confounders). RESULTS: In this work, we introduce a novel multi-view clustering method based on NMTF and NTD, named INMTD, which integrates omics and 3D imaging data to derive unconfounded subgroups of individuals. According to the adjusted Rand index, INMTD outperformed other clustering methods on a synthetic dataset with known clusters. In the application to real-life facial-genomic data, INMTD generated biologically relevant embeddings for individuals, genetics, and facial morphology. By removing confounded embedding vectors, we derived an unconfounded clustering with better internal and external quality; the genetic and facial annotations of each derived subgroup highlighted distinctive characteristics. In conclusion, INMTD can effectively integrate omics data and 3D images for unconfounded clustering with biologically meaningful interpretation.

Comparison of statistical methods for analysis of clustered binary observations.

When correlated observations are obtained in a randomized controlled trial, the assumption of independence among observations within cluster likely will not hold because the observations share the same cluster (e.g. clinic, physician, or subject). Further, the outcome measurements of interest are often binary. The objective of this paper is to compare the performance of four statistical methods for analysis of clustered binary observations: namely (1) full likelihood method; (2) penalized quasi-likelihood method; (3) generalized estimating equation method; (4) fixed-effects logistic regression method. The first three methods take correlations into account in inferential processes whereas the last method does not. Type I error rate, power, bias, and standard error are compared across the four statistical methods through computer simulations under varying effect sizes, intraclass correlation coefficients, number of clusters, and number of observations per cluster, including large numbers 20 and 100 of observations per cluster. The results show that the performance of the full likelihood and the penalized quasi-likelihood methods is superior for analysis of clustered binary observations, and is not necessarily inferior to that of the fixed-effects logistic regression fit even when within-cluster correlations are zero.

Influence analysis for linear mixed-effects models.

In this paper, we extend several regression diagnostic techniques commonly used in linear regression, such as leverage, infinitesimal influence, case deletion diagnostics, Cook's distance, and local influence to the linear mixed-effects model. In each case, the proposed new measure has a direct interpretation in terms of the effects on a parameter of interest, and collapses to the familiar linear regression measure when there are no random effects. The new measures are explicitly defined functions and do not necessitate re-estimation of the model, especially for cluster deletion diagnostics. The basis for both the cluster deletion diagnostics and Cook's distance is a generalization of Miller's simple update formula for case deletion for linear models. Pregibon's infinitesimal case deletion diagnostics is adapted to the linear mixed-effects model. A simple compact matrix formula is derived to assess the local influence of the fixed-effects regression coefficients. Finally, a link between the local influence approach and Cook's distance is established. These influence measures are applied to an analysis of 5-year Medicare reimbursements to colon cancer patients to identify the most influential observations and their effects on the fixed-effects coefficients.
