Inference about the slope in linear regression: an empirical likelihood approach [PDF]
, 2017 We present a new, efficient maximum empirical likelihood estimator for the slope in linear regression with independent errors and covariates. The estimator does not require estimation of the influence function, in contrast to other approaches, and is ...

Adjusted empirical likelihood analysis of restricted mean survival time for length-biased data [PDF]
Journal of Mahani Mathematical ResearchThe Restricted Mean Survival Time (RMST) serves as a valuable and extensively utilized metric in clinical trials. However, its application becomes intricate when dealing with data affected by length-biased sampling, rendering traditional inference ...

Empirical likelihood on the full parameter space
, 2013 We extend the empirical likelihood of Owen [Ann. Statist. 18 (1990) 90-120] by partitioning its domain into the collection of its contours and mapping the contours through a continuous sequence of similarity transformations onto the full parameter space.

Regenerative block empirical likelihood for Markov chains
, 2011 Empirical likelihood is a powerful semi-parametric method increasingly investigated in the literature. However, most authors essentially focus on an i.i.d. setting.

A Euclidean likelihood estimator for bivariate tail dependence [PDF]
, 2012 The spectral measure plays a key role in the statistical modeling of multivariate extremes. Estimation of the spectral measure is a complex issue, given the need to obey a certain moment condition.

Weighted Graph-Based Two-Sample Test via Empirical Likelihood
MathematicsIn network data analysis, one of the important problems is determining if two collections of networks are drawn from the same distribution. This problem can be modeled in the framework of two-sample hypothesis testing.

Empirical and Simulated Adjustments of Composite Likelihood Ratio Statistics [PDF]
, 2013 Composite likelihood inference has gained much popularity thanks to its computational manageability and its theoretical properties. Unfortunately, performing composite likelihood ratio tests is inconvenient because of their awkward asymptotic ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Weak Identification Robust Tests for Subvectors Using Implied Probabilities
EntropyThis paper develops tests for hypotheses concerning subvectors of parameters in models defined by moment conditions. It is well known that conventional tests such as Wald, Likelihood-ratio and Score tests tend to over-reject when the identification is ...
