Second order ancillary: A differential view from continuity
, 2010 Second order approximate ancillaries have evolved as the primary ingredient for recent likelihood development in statistical inference. This uses quantile functions rather than the equivalent distribution functions, and the intrinsic ancillary contour is

An analytical study of worker well-being and COVID-19 impact using Bayesian panel modeling
Healthcare AnalyticsThis study investigates how the determinants of Japanese workers’ well-being shifted before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We estimate a Bayesian hierarchical panel model and Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling is implemented with the ancillarity ...

Achieving shrinkage in a time-varying parameter model framework [PDF]
, 2019 Shrinkage for time-varying parameter (TVP) models is investigated within a Bayesian framework, with the aim to automatically reduce time-varying Parameters to staticones, if the model is overfitting.

The concept of sufficiency in conditional frequentist inference
Statistica Neerlandica, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 544-562, August 2024.We consider inference about the parameter that determines the distribution of the data. In frequentist inference a very important and useful idea is that data reduction to a sufficient statistic does not lose any information about this parameter. We recall two justifications for this idea in frequentist inference.

, 2010 The term “ancillary statistic” was introduced by R. A. Fisher (Fisher 1925) in the context of maximum likelihood estimation. Fisher regarded the likelihood function as embodying all the information that the data had to supply about the unknown parameter.

Estimating the null distribution for conditional inference and genome-scale screening
, 2009 In a novel approach to the multiple testing problem, Efron (2004; 2007) formulated estimators of the distribution of test statistics or nominal p-values under a null distribution suitable for modeling the data of thousands of unaffected genes, non ...
