Improving emergency service in rural areas: a bi-objective covering location model for EMS systems
Annals of Operations Research, 221(1), 133–159.
author keywords: Emergency medical service; Facility location; Bi-objective optimization; Discrete optimization
TL;DR:
This paper proposes three bi-objective covering location models that directly consider fairness in semi-rural/semi-urban communities and results are discussed and compared to provide a menu of alternatives to policy makers.

SNP_NLMM: A SAS Macro to Implement a Flexible Random Effects Density for Generalized Linear and Nonlinear Mixed Models
Journal of Statistical Software, 56(Code Snippet 2).
TL;DR:
A SAS macro, SNP_NLMM, is developed that overcomes the computational challenges to fit GLMMs and NLMMs where the random effects are assumed to follow a smooth density that can be represented by the seminonparametric formulation proposed by Gallant and Nychka (1987).

Doubly robust learning for estimating individualized treatment with censored data
Biometrika, 102(1), 151–168.
author keywords: Censored data; Doubly robust estimator; Individualized treatment rule; Risk bound; Support vector machine
TL;DR:
Nonparametric methods for estimating an optimal individualized treatment rule in the presence of censored data are developed and a doubly robust estimator is proposed which requires correct specification of either the censoring model or survival model but not both.

Censored rank independence screening for high-dimensional survival data
Biometrika, 101(4), 799–814.
author keywords: High-dimensional survival data; Rank independence screening; Sure screening property
TL;DR:
Simulations and an analysis of real data demonstrate that the proposed method performs competitively on survival data sets of moderate size and high-dimensional predictors, even when these are contaminated.

The minimum p-envy location problem with requirement on minimum survival rate
COMPUTERS & INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING, 74, 228–239.
author keywords: p-Envy; Location models; Survival function; Emergency medical service; Equity
TL;DR:
An extension to the minimum p-envy location model is considered by evaluating the objective of the model based on a survival function instead of on a distance function since survival probability is directly related to patient outcomes with a constraint on minimum survival rate.

TL;DR:
It is shown how the method of KJH can be used with existing policy-search methods to construct a treatment rule that is interpretable, logistically feasible, parsimonious, or otherwise appealing.
