Optimal designs of constant‐stress accelerated life‐tests for one‐shot devices with model misspecification analysis

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, 2021
The design of constant‐stress accelerated life‐test (CSALT) is important in reliability estimation. In reliability studies, practitioners usually rely on underlying distribution to design CSALTs.

Likelihood-based estimation and prediction for a measles outbreak in Samoa

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2023
Prediction of the progression of an infectious disease outbreak is important for planning and coordinating a response. Differential equations are often used to model an epidemic outbreak's behaviour but are challenging to parameterise. Furthermore, these

Propensity score weighting under limited overlap and model misspecification [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Methods in Medical Research, 2020
Propensity score weighting methods are often used in non-randomized studies to adjust for confounding and assess treatment effects. The most popular among them, the inverse probability weighting, assigns weights that are proportional to the inverse of ...

Environmental public good provision under robust decision making [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We study public good provision in a two-country dynamic setup with environmental externalities. In this framework, we examine robust decision making under potential misspecification of the process that describes the evolution of the environmental ...

Modeling Nonnegativity Via Truncated Logistic and Normal Distributions: An Application to Ranch Land Price Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1994
This study presents an empirical method of modeling the nonnegativity of dependent variables using truncated logistic and normal disturbance distributions. The method is applied in estimating a ranch land hedonic price function.

Bootstrap confidence sets under model misspecification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A multiplier bootstrap procedure for construction of likelihood-based confidence sets is considered for finite samples and a possible model misspecification. Theoretical results justify the bootstrap validity for a small or moderate sample size and allow

Specifying Turning Point in Piecewise Growth Curve Models: Challenges and Solutions

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2017
Piecewise growth curve model (PGCM) is often used when the underlying growth process is not linear and is hypothesized to consist of phasic developments connected by turning points (or knots or change points).

Model misspecification in approximate Bayesian computation: consequences and diagnostics

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Statistical Methodology), 2020
We analyse the behaviour of approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) when the model generating the simulated data differs from the actual data‐generating process, i.e. when the data simulator in ABC is misspecified. We demonstrate both theoretically and in

Comparing the Robustness of the Structural after Measurement (SAM) Approach to Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) against Local Model Misspecifications with Alternative Estimation Approaches

open access: yesStats, 2022
Structural equation models (SEM), or confirmatory factor analysis as a special case, contain model parameters at the measurement part and the structural part.
