A new mixture-based fixed-effect model for a biometrical case-study related to immunogenecity with highly censored data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We propose a new continuous-discrete mixture regression model which is useful for describing highly censored data. We motivate our investigation based on a case-study in biometry related to measles vaccines in Haiti. In this case-study, the neutralization antibody level is explained by the type of vaccine used, level of the dosage and gender of the ...
