Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Motivated by image‐on‐scalar regression with data aggregated across multiple sites, we consider a setting in which multiple independent studies each collect multiple dependent vector outcomes, with potential mean model parameter homogeneity between studies and outcome vectors. To determine the validity of a joint analysis of these data sources, we must learn which of them share mean model parameters. We propose a new model fusion approach that delivers improved flexibility and statistical performance over existing methods. Our proposed approach specifies a quadratic inference function within each data source and fuses mean model parameter vectors in their entirety based on a new formulation of a pairwise fusion penalty. We establish theoretical properties of our estimator and propose an asymptotically equivalent weighted oracle meta‐estimator that is more computationally efficient. Simulations and an application to the ABIDE neuroimaging consortium highlight the flexibility of the proposed approach. An R package is provided for ease of implementation.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
