The Calculus of M-Estimation in R with geex [PDF]
M-estimation, or estimating equation, methods are widely applicable for point estimation and asymptotic inference. In this paper, we present an R package that can find roots and compute the empirical sandwich variance estimator for any set of user ...

Performance and Determinants of Serum Creatinine and Cystatin C–Based GFR Estimating Equations in South Asians [PDF]
Introduction: The creatinine-based Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equation was calibrated for the general Pakistan population (eGFRcr-PK) to eliminate bias and improve accuracy ...

Assessing the Impacts of Meteorological Factors on COVID-19 Pandemic Using Generalized Estimating Equations [PDF]
BackgroundMeteorological factors have been proven to affect pathogens; both the transmission routes and other intermediate. Many studies have worked on assessing how those meteorological factors would influence the transmissibility of COVID-19.

A selective review of statistical methods using calibration information from similar studies
In the era of big data, divide-and-conquer, parallel, and distributed inference methods have become increasingly popular. How to effectively use the calibration information from each machine in parallel computation has become a challenging task for ...

Gee-logit model corrected biplots with harvest effects on coffee beans grading
In a granulometric analysis of coffee beans with different categories of defects, the data can be organized in contingency tables, and when considering the discrimination by harvest, they may have a structure that suggest a more complex model, by means ...

Tracking of health-related physical fitness in adolescent girls: a 3-year follow-up study
Background Evidence has shown that higher levels of physical fitness (PF) in youth have beneficial effects on adult health-related outcomes. However, the tracking of separate PF components during adolescence has been less studied.

Restricted Empirical Likelihood Estimation for Time Series Autoregressive Models
In this paper, we first illustrate the restricted empirical likelihood function, as an alternative to the usual empirical likelihood. Then, we use this quasi-empirical likelihood function as a basis for Bayesian analysis of AR(r) time series models.

Estimating Euler equations [PDF]
In this paper we consider conditions under which the estimation of a log-linearized Euler equation for consumption yields consistent estimates of preference parameters.
