报告摘要：

In this talk, I will first show some examples of measurement error and demonstrate its impact in linear and logistic regression models. Then I'll introduce the instrumental variable method for bias correction and apply it to various models with complex data structures that are widely used in practical data analysis. Finally, this method is extended to the high-dimensional variable selection problem.
