“…Examples of SEM approaches are introduced and discussed by (Berry, Carlin, Lee, and Müller 2010, chapter 2), Thall, Wathen, Bekele, Champlin, Baker, and Benjamin (2003), and Berry, Broglio, Groshen, and Berry (2013, with providing additional background on these specific SEM implementations. SEM approaches are also implemented in packages by Nia and Davison (2012) and Savage, Cooke, Darkins, and Xu (2018) and have been extended to more specialized applications in fMRI studies (Stocco 2014), modeling clearance rates of parasites in biological organisms (Sharifi-Malvajerdi, Zhu, Fogarty, Fay, Fairhurst, Flegg, Stepniewska, and Small 2019), modeling genomic bifurcations (Campbell and Yau 2017), modeling ChIP-seq data through hidden Ising models (Mo 2018), modeling genome-wide nucleosome positioning with high-throughput short-read data (Samb, Khadraoui, Belleau, Deschênes, Lakhal-Chaieb, and Droit 2015), and modeling cross-study analysis of differential gene expression (Scharpf, Tjelmeland, Parmigiani, and Nobel 2009).…”
