Permutation Tests for Infection Graphs
Justin Khim, Po-Ling Loh · 2017-05-23 · via math.ST updates on arXiv.org

We formulate and analyze a novel hypothesis testing problem for inferring the edge structure of an infection graph. In our model, a disease spreads over a network via contagion or random infection, where the random variables governing the rates of contracting the disease from neighbors or random infection are independent exponential random variables with unknown rate parameters. A subset of nodes is also censored uniformly at random. Given the statuses of nodes in the network, the goal is to determine the underlying graph. We present a procedure based on permutation testing, and we derive sufficient conditions for the validity of our test in terms of automorphism groups of the graphs corresponding to the null and alternative hypotheses. Further, the test is valid more generally for infection processes satisfying a basic symmetry condition. Our test is easy to compute and does not involve estimating unknown parameters governing the process. We also derive risk bounds for our permutation test in a variety of settings, and motivate our test statistic in terms of approximate equivalence to likelihood ratio testing and maximin tests. We conclude with an application to real data from an HIV infection network.
