Projection regression models for multivariate imaging phenotype.

abstract：:Emerging evidence suggests that a genetic variant can affect multiple phenotypes, especially in complex human diseases. Therefore, joint analysis of multiple phenotypes may offer new insights into disease etiology. Recently, many statistical methods have been developed for joint analysis of multiple phenotypes, includ...
