Polygenic modeling with bayesian sparse linear mixed models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Both linear mixed models (LMMs) and sparse regression models are widely used in genetics applications, including, recently, polygenic modeling in genome-wide association studies.

Critical evaluation of linear regression models for cell-subtype specific methylation signal from mixed blood cell DNA. [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2018
Epigenome-wide association studies seek to identify DNA methylation sites associated with clinical outcomes. Difference in observed methylation between specific cell-subtypes is often of interest; however, available samples often comprise a mixture of ...

Model Selection in Linear Mixed Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Linear mixed effects models are highly flexible in handling a broad range of data types and are therefore widely used in applications. A key part in the analysis of data is model selection, which often aims to choose a parsimonious model with other ...

Comparison of height-diameter models based on geographically weighted regressions and linear mixed modelling applied to large scale forest inventory data

open access: diamondForest Systems, 2016
Aim of the study: The main objective of this study was to test Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) for developing height-diameter curves for forests on a large scale and to compare it with Linear Mixed Models (LMM).

Efficient Algorithms for Estimating the Parameters of Mixed Linear Regression Models [PDF]

open access: green2025 IEEE 35th International Workshop on Machine Learning for Signal Processing (MLSP), 2021
Mixed linear regression (MLR) model is among the most exemplary statistical tools for modeling non-linear distributions using a mixture of linear models. When the additive noise in MLR model is Gaussian, Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is a widely-used algorithm for maximum likelihood estimation of MLR parameters.

Application of Linear Mixed-Effects Models in Human Neuroscience Research: A Comparison with Pearson Correlation in Two Auditory Electrophysiology Studies

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2017
Neurophysiological studies are often designed to examine relationships between measures from different testing conditions, time points, or analysis techniques within the same group of participants.

The Consistency of Quantile Regression in Linear Mixed Models

open access: green, 2019
Quantiles are parameters of a distribution, which are of location and of scale character at the same time. The median, as a location parameter, is even robust and outperforms the mean, whenever there are outliers or extreme values in the data. In linear models quantile regression was firstly introduced by Koenker and Bassett [1978].

Gradient boosting for linear mixed models [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biostatistics, 2020
Gradient boosting from the field of statistical learning is widely known as a powerful framework for estimation and selection of predictor effects in various regression models by adapting concepts from classification theory.

Statistical analysis of comparative tumor growth repeated measures experiments in the ovarian cancer patient derived xenograft (PDX) setting

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Repeated measures studies are frequently performed in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models to evaluate drug activity or compare effectiveness of cancer treatment regimens. Linear mixed effects regression models were used to perform statistical modeling
