Empirical Likelihood and General Estimating Equations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 1994
For some time, so-called empirical likelihoods have been used heuristically for purposes of nonparametric estimation. Owen showed that empirical likelihood ratio statistics for various parameters $\theta(F)$ of an unknown distribution $F$ have limiting chi-square distributions and may be used to obtain tests or confidence intervals in a way that is ...

Multicollinearity and Linear Predictor Link Function Problems in Regression Modelling of Longitudinal Data

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In the longitudinal data analysis we integrate flexible linear predictor link function and high-correlated predictor variables. Our approach uses B-splines for non-parametric part in the linear predictor component.

Flexible generalized varying coefficient regression models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper studies a very flexible model that can be used widely to analyze the relation between a response and multiple covariates. The model is nonparametric, yet renders easy interpretation for the effects of the covariates.

Risk factors for diarrhea in a cohort of dairy heifer calves reared in individual outdoor hutches in Piraí, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2016
This study aimed to evaluate the association between diarrhea and risk factors potentially related to diarrhea incidence, such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Eimeria and nematode infection, animal age, failure to transfer passive immunity, type of ...

Factors associated with mortality from tuberculosis in Iran: an application of a generalized estimating equation-based zero-inflated negative binomial model to national registry data [PDF]

open access: yesEpidemiology and Health, 2019
OBJECTIVES Tuberculosis (TB) is a global public health problem that causes morbidity and mortality in millions of people per year. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of potential risk factors with TB mortality in Iran. METHODS This

Generalized fractional differential equations for past dynamic

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2022
Well-posedness of the terminal value problem for nonlinear systems of generalized fractional differential equations is studied. The generalized fractional operator is formulated with a classical operator and a related weighted space.

On generalised estimating equations for vector regression [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics, 2017
Generalized estimating equations (GEE; Liang & Zeger 1986) for general vector regression settings are examined. When the response vectors are of mixed type (e.g. continuous-binary response pairs), the GEE approach is a semiparametric alternative to full-likelihood copula methods, and is closely related to the mean-covariance estimation equations ...
