Application of one-step method to parameter estimation in ODE models. [PDF]
Stat Neerl, 2018 In this paper, we study application of Le Cam's one‐step method to parameter estimation in ordinary differential equation models. This computationally simple technique can serve as an alternative to numerical evaluation of the popular non‐linear least squares estimator, which typically requires the use of a multistep iterative algorithm and repetitive ...

Local linear approach: Conditional density estimate for functional and censored data
Demonstratio Mathematica, 2022 Let YY be a random real response, which is subject to right censoring by another random variable CC. In this paper, we study the nonparametric local linear estimation of the conditional density of a scalar response variable and when the covariable takes ...

Nonparametric inference for interventional effects with multiple mediators
Journal of Causal Inference, 2021 Understanding the pathways whereby an intervention has an effect on an outcome is a common scientific goal. A rich body of literature provides various decompositions of the total intervention effect into pathway-specific effects.

Two symmetric and computationally efficient Gini correlations
Dependence Modeling, 2020 Standard Gini correlation plays an important role in measuring the dependence between random variables with heavy-tailed distributions. It is based on the covariance between one variable and the rank of the other. Hence for each pair of random variables,

Individualized treatment rules under stochastic treatment cost constraints
Journal of Causal Inference, 2022 Estimation and evaluation of individualized treatment rules have been studied extensively, but real-world treatment resource constraints have received limited attention in existing methods.

On the use of L-functionals in regression models
Open Mathematics, 2023 In this article, we survey and unify a large class or LL-functionals of the conditional distribution of the response variable in regression models.

A novel approach to compare the spectral densities of some uncorrelated cyclostationary time series
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2022 Our primary objective in this article is to compare the spectral densities of some cyclostationary time series. By using the limiting distributions of the discrete Fourier transform, a novel approach is introduced to determine whether the spectral ...

A fundamental measure of treatment effect heterogeneity
Journal of Causal Inference, 2021 The stratum-specific treatment effect function is a random variable giving the average treatment effect (ATE) for a randomly drawn stratum of potential confounders a clinician may use to assign treatment.

Consistency of mixture models with a prior on the number of components
Dependence Modeling, 2023 This article establishes general conditions for posterior consistency of Bayesian finite mixture models with a prior on the number of components. That is, we provide sufficient conditions under which the posterior concentrates on neighborhoods of the ...

Large deviations for exchangeable observations with applications
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 55, Page 2947-2958, 2004., 2004 We first prove some large deviation results for a mixture of i.i.d. random variables. Compared with most of the known results in the literature, our results are built on relaxing some restrictive conditions that may not be easy to be checked in certain typical cases.
