Statistical primer: an introduction to the application of linear mixed-effects models in cardiothoracic surgery outcomes research—a case study using homograft pulmonary valve replacement data

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2022
Summary OBJECTIVES The emergence of big cardio-thoracic surgery datasets that include not only short-term and long-term discrete outcomes but also repeated measurements over time offers the opportunity to apply more advanced modelling of outcomes.

The development of a simple basal area increment model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In most cases forest practice in Austria use yield tables to predict the growth of their forests. Common yield tables show the increment of pure even-aged stands which are treated in a way the table developer recommends.

Bayesian multimodel inference for geostatistical regression models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The problem of simultaneous covariate selection and parameter inference for spatial regression models is considered. Previous research has shown that failure to take spatial correlation into account can influence the outcome of standard model selection ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Flexible semiparametric mixed models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In linear mixed models the influence of covariates is restricted to a strictly parametric form. With the rise of semi- and nonparametric regression also the mixed model has been expanded to allow for additive predictors.

Reducing Selection Bias in Analyzing Longitudinal Health Data with High Mortality Rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Two longitudinal regression models, one parametric and one nonparametric, are developed to reduce selection bias when analyzing longitudinal health data with high mortality rates.

Variational Bayesian EM Algorithm for Quantile Regression in Linear Mixed Effects Models

open access: yesMathematics
This paper extends the normal-beta prime (NBP) prior to Bayesian quantile regression in linear mixed effects models and conducts Bayesian variable selection for the fixed effects of the model.

Estimating Functional Linear Mixed-Effects Regression Models

open access: yes, 2016
The functional linear model is a popular tool to investigate the relationship between a scalar/functional response variable and a scalar/functional covariate. We generalize this model to a functional linear mixed-effects model when repeated measurements are available on multiple subjects.

Using Linear Mixed-Effects Models with Quantile Regression to Simulate the Crown Profile of Planted Pinus sylvestris var. Mongolica Trees

open access: yes, 2017
Crown profile is mostly related to the competition of individual trees in the stands, light interception, growth, and yield of trees. A total of 76 sample trees with a total number of 889 whorls and 3658 live branches were used to develop the outer crown

Convergence of Parameter Estimates for Regularized Mixed Linear Regression Models [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE 58th Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2019
We consider {\em Mixed Linear Regression (MLR)}, where training data have been generated from a mixture of distinct linear models (or clusters) and we seek to identify the corresponding coefficient vectors. We introduce a {\em Mixed Integer Programming (MIP)} formulation for MLR subject to regularization constraints on the coefficient vectors.
