SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Learning Structure in High-Dimensional Data with Applications to Neuroimaging
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe scale of modern datasets\, with more and more variables measured on more and more observations\, presents many statistical challenges\, but also opportunities to discover and exploit the rich structure that is often present in the data. In neuroimaging studies\, multiple kinds of brain imaging are conducted on the same participant\, with each modality of imaging having its own further structure\, and many associated phenotypic measurements taken on the participants. Understanding the complicated and noisy underlying relationships between all of these measurements holds promise for scientific and treatment breakthroughs in the long term\, and requires sophisticated methods designed to uncover this structure. This thesis presents three projects on learning structure in high-dimensional datasets motivated by applications in neuroimaging.\n\nThe first project considers the setting where many networks are observed on a common node set: each observation comprises edge weights\, covariates observed at each node\, and a response. In our neuroimaging application\, the edge weights correspond to functional connectivity between brain regions\, node covariates encode task activations at each brain region\, and performance on a behavioral task is the response. The goal is to use the edge weights and node covariates to predict the response and to identify a parsimonious and interpretable set of predictive features. We propose an approach that uses feature groups defined according to a community structure believed to exist in the network (naturally occurring in neuroimaging applications). We propose two schemes for forming feature groups where each group incorporates both edge weights and node covariates\, and derive optimization algorithms for both using an overlapping group LASSO penalty. Empirical results on synthetic data show that our method\, relative to competing approaches\, has similar or improved prediction error along with superior support recovery\, enabling a more interpretable and potentially a more accurate understanding of the underlying process. We also apply the method to neuroimaging data.\n\nThe second project focuses on inference for structure learned using Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). CCA is a method for analyzing a sample of pairs of random vectors\; it learns a sequence of paired linear transformations of the original variables that are maximally correlated within pairs while uncorrelated across pairs. CCA outputs both canonical correlations as well as the canonical directions which define the transformations. While inference for canonical correlations is well developed\, conducting inference for canonical directions is more challenging and not well-studied\, but is key to interpretability. We propose a computational bootstrap method for inference on CCA direction (kombootcca). We conduct thorough simulation studies that range from simple and well-controlled to complex but realistic and validate the statistical properties of kombootcca while comparing it to several competitors. We also apply the kombootcca method to a brain imaging dataset and discover linked patterns in brain connectivity and behavioral scores.\n\nThe third project proposes a new method for matrix CCA (matcca)\, which works with pairs of random matrices rather than pairs of random vectors\, motivated by a neuroimaging application where the brain imaging data takes the form of a high-dimensional covariance matrix. Our matcca method uses a nuclear norm penalty that encourages the canonical directions associated with the matrix-variate data to have low rank structure when arranged into a matrix. Results from both synthetic and neuroimaging data show that matcca is very effective at recovering low rank signals even in noisy cases with few observations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UN/EARTH
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

SUMMARY:Tours:Building on a Century of Collecting at the Clements Library
DESCRIPTION:As we celebrate the library’s centennial\, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors\, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.\n\nIt builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary\, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library\, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.
