Causal approaches based on the potential outcome framework provide a useful tool for addressing noncompliance problems in randomized trials. We propose a new estimator of causal treatment effects in randomized clinical trials with noncompliance. We use the empirical likelihood approach to...

Efficient semiparametric estimation of longitudinal causal effects is often analytically or computationally intractable. We propose a novel restricted estimation approach for increasing efficiency, which can be used with other techniques, is straightforward to implement, and requires no...

Motivated by analysis of genetical genomics data, we introduce a sparse high-dimensional multivariate regression model for studying conditional independence relationships among a set of genes adjusting for possible genetic effects. The precision matrix in the model specifies a covariate-adjusted...
