A note on the likelihood ratio test in high-dimensional exploratory factor analysis
Published in Psychometrika, 2021
Co-first author (Wang, Z. and He, Y. contributed equally). In this paper, we derived conditions for the Chi-square approximation in high-dimensional factor analysis to hold and refined the factor selection procedure to improve its accuracy.

“Nonparametric Estimation of Subgroup Mediation Effects with Semi-Competing Risks Data
We proposed nonparametric estimators of causal mediation effects, which reduce computing time compared to EM algorithm.

Interim analysis in sequential multiple assignment randomized trials for survival outcomes
Preprint: arXiv, 2025
arXiv: arXiv:2504.03143
We proposed interim analysis procedures for complex SMART trials to reduce sample sizes while controlling type I error and maintaining statistical power.

Generalized Win-Odds Regression Models on Composite Endpoints
We proposed proportional Win Odds regression models to evaluate the treatment effect on multiple outcomes while controlling for other risk factors.
