On partial likelihood and the construction of factorisable transformations. [PDF]
Inf Geom, 2022 Models whose associated likelihood functions fruitfully factorise are an important minority allowing elimination of nuisance parameters via partial likelihood, an operation that is valuable in both Bayesian and frequentist inferences, particularly when ...

Information criteria for Firth's penalized partial likelihood approach in Cox regression models. [PDF]
Stat Med, 2017 In the estimation of Cox regression models, maximum partial likelihood estimates might be infinite in a monotone likelihood setting, where partial likelihood converges to a finite value and parameter estimates converge to infinite values.

Estimating epidemiological parameters for bovine tuberculosis in British cattle using a Bayesian partial-likelihood approach. [PDF]
Proc Biol Sci, 2014 Fitting models with Bayesian likelihood-based parameter inference is becoming increasingly important in infectious disease epidemiology. Detailed datasets present the opportunity to identify subsets of these data that capture important characteristics of

Partial mixture model for tight clustering of gene expression time-course [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2008 Background Tight clustering arose recently from a desire to obtain tighter and potentially more informative clusters in gene expression studies. Scattered genes with relatively loose correlations should be excluded from the clusters.

Local partial-likelihood estimation for lifetime data [PDF]
, 2006 This paper considers a proportional hazards model, which allows one to examine the extent to which covariates interact nonlinearly with an exposure variable, for analysis of lifetime data.

Local partial likelihood estimation in proportional hazards regression [PDF]
, 2007 Fan, Gijbels and King [Ann. Statist. 25 (1997) 1661--1690] considered the estimation of the risk function $\psi (x)$ in the proportional hazards model. Their proposed estimator is based on integrating the estimated derivative function obtained through a ...
