Quadratic distances on probabilities: A unified foundation (2008)

Lindsay, Bruce G., Markatou, Marianthi, Ray, Surajit, Yang, Ke, Chen, Shu-Chuan

This work builds a unified framework for the study of quadratic form distance measures as they are used in assessing the goodness of fit of models. Many important procedures have this structure, but...

Evaluation of MHC class I peptide binding prediction servers: Applications for vaccine research (2008)

Lin, Hong, Ray, Surajit, Tongchusak, Songsak, Reinherz, Ellis L, Brusic, Vladimir

Abstract Background Protein antigens and their specific epitopes are formulation targets for epitope-based vaccines. A number of prediction servers are available for identification of peptides that...

Amino acid biophysical properties in the statistical prediction of peptide-MHC class I binding (2007)

Ray, Surajit, Kepler, Thomas B

Abstract Background A key step in the development of an adaptive immune response to pathogens or vaccines is the binding of short peptides to molecules of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)...

Model selection in High-Dimensions: A Quadratic-risk based approach (2006)

Ray, Surajit, Lindsay, Bruce G.

In this article we propose a general class of risk measures which can be used for data based evaluation of parametric models. The loss function is defined as generalized quadratic distance between...

The topography of multivariate normal mixtures (2006)

Ray, Surajit, Lindsay, Bruce G.

Multivariate normal mixtures provide a flexible method of fitting high-dimensional data. It is shown that their topography, in the sense of their key features as a density, can be analyzed rigorously...

The topography of multivariate normal mixtures (2005)

Ray, Surajit, Lindsay, Bruce G.

Multivariate normal mixtures provide a flexible method of fitting high-dimensional data. It is shown that their topography, in the sense of their key features as a density, can be analyzed rigorously...

Distance-based Model-Selection with application to the Analysis of Gene Expression Data (2003)

Ray, Surajit

Multivariate mixture models provide a convenient method of density estimation and model based clustering as well as providing possible explanations for the actual data generation process. But the...

Introduction The basic set-up of Goodness of Fit tests are as follows For a sequence of n observations on a multinomial distribution with k cells Denote the probability vector by p, p 1 p k , i 1 p i...

Improved Power in Multinomial Goodness-of-fit Tests (2002)

Ayanendranath Basu, Surajit Ray

this paper we try to explain why the above behavior of the power divergence test statistics are natural, and make a preliminary attempt to provide some new tests with reasonably high power at both...

Robust Wald Tests in SUR Systems with Adding Up Restrictions: An Algebraic Approach to Proofs of Invariance

Surajit Ray, B. Ravikumar, N. Eugene Savin

In this paper, we examine the robust Wald test statistic for SUR systems with adding up restrictions where the same explanatory variables are present in all equations and where heteroskedasticity...

The performance of heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation robust tests: a Monte Carlo study with an application to the three-factor Fama-French asset-pricing model

Surajit Ray, N. E. Savin

This paper illustrates the pitfalls of the conventional heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation robust (HAR) Wald test and the advantages of new HAR tests developed by Kiefer and Vogelsang in 2005 and...

CAPM Reconsidered: A Robust Finite Sample Evaluation

Ravikumar, B., Ray, Surajit, Savin, N.E.

In this paper, the conventional test of the Sharpe-Lintner version of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) are reconsidered. The CAPM is formulated as a Seemingly Unrelated Regression (SUR) system...

Model selection in high dimensions: a quadratic-risk-based approach

Surajit Ray, Bruce G. Lindsay

We propose a general class of risk measures which can be used for data-based evaluation of parametric models. The loss function is defined as the generalized quadratic distance between the true...
