Minimization of Akaike's information criterion in linear regression analysis via mixed integer nonlinear program [PDF]

open access: yesOptim. Methods Softw., 2016
Akaike's information criterion (AIC) is a measure of evaluating statistical models for a given data set. We can determine the best statistical model for a particular data set by finding the model with the smallest AIC value. Since there are exponentially

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.

A mixed-effects model for growth curves analysis in a two-way crossed classification layout

open access: yesRevista de Matemática: Teoría y Aplicaciones, 2009
We propose a mixed-effects linear model for analyzing growth curves data obtained using a two-way classification experiment. The model combines an unconstrained means model and a regression model on the time, in which the coefficients are considered ...

A comparison of multiple imputation methods for missing data in longitudinal studies

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2018
Background Multiple imputation (MI) is now widely used to handle missing data in longitudinal studies. Several MI techniques have been proposed to impute incomplete longitudinal covariates, including standard fully conditional specification (FCS-Standard)

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.

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

Sparse Probit Linear Mixed Model

open access: yes, 2017
Linear Mixed Models (LMMs) are important tools in statistical genetics. When used for feature selection, they allow to find a sparse set of genetic traits that best predict a continuous phenotype of interest, while simultaneously correcting for various ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Imputation by PLS regression for linear mixed models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The problem of handling missing data for a linear mixed model in presence of correlation between covariates is considered. The missing mechanism concerns both dependent variable and design matrix.
