Future research is needed for the issue of sample size and number of SNPs in variable selection of an LR and comparison of an LR with other statistical methods in testing SNP–SNP interactions.

We explore large-scale functional linear regression in which the scalar response is associated with a potentially ultrahigh number of functional predictors, leading to a more challenging model ...

We discuss estimation and testing of hypotheses in a partial linear regression model, that is, a regression model where the regression function is the sum of a linear and a nonparametric component. We ...
