Assessing the Impacts of Meteorological Factors on COVID-19 Pandemic Using Generalized Estimating Equations [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2022 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.

Developing Students’ Intuition on the Impact of Correlated Outcomes
Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2022 While correlated data methods (like random effect models and generalized estimating equations) are commonly applied in practice, students may struggle with understanding the reasons that standard regression techniques fail if applied to correlated ...

Investigation for periodic and almost periodic solutions of first-order ordinary differential equations [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Approaches to estimating for the number of periodic and almost periodic solutions of ordinary differential equations are considered. Conditions that allow determinating both the upper and lower bounds for these solutions are found.

Use of Estimating Equations for Dosing Antimicrobials in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury Not Receiving Renal Replacement Therapy. [PDF]
, 2018 Acute kidney injury (AKI) can potentially lead to the accumulation of antimicrobial drugs with significant renal clearance. Drug dosing adjustments are commonly made using the Cockcroft-Gault estimate of creatinine clearance (CLcr). The Modified Jelliffe

Second-order variational equations for spatial point processes with a view to pair correlation function estimation [PDF]
, 2019 Second-order variational type equations for spatial point processes are established. In case of log linear parametric models for pair correlation functions, it is demonstrated that the variational equations can be applied to construct estimating ...

Counting Process Based Dimension Reduction Methods for Censored Outcomes [PDF]
, 2018 We propose a class of dimension reduction methods for right censored survival data using a counting process representation of the failure process. Semiparametric estimating equations are constructed to estimate the dimension reduction subspace for the ...
