Tracking of health-related physical fitness in adolescent girls: a 3-year follow-up study
BMC Pediatrics, 2022 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
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2021 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.

A Unified Theory of Confidence Regions and Testing for High-Dimensional Estimating Equations [PDF]
Statistical Science, 2015 We propose a new inferential framework for constructing confidence regions and testing hypotheses in statistical models specified by a system of high dimensional estimating equations. We construct an influence function by projecting the fitted estimating

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.
