Profile Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Single-Index Spatial Dynamic Panel Data Model

Mathematics, 2023
In this paper, the spatial dynamic panel data (SDPD) model is extended to the single-index spatial dynamic panel data (Si-SDPD) model by introducing a nonlinear connection function to reflect the interaction between explanatory variables.

Assessing parameter identifiability for Dynamic Causal Modelling of fMRI data

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
Deterministic dynamic causal modelling (DCM) for fMRI data is a sophisticated approach to analyse effective connectivity in terms of directed interactions between brain regions of interest. To date it is difficult to know if acquired fMRI data will yield

Multiplicative-Binomial Distribution: Some Results on Characterization, Inference and Random Data Generation [PDF]

Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2013
Multiplicative-binomial distribution is one of the distributions that allows for over-dispersion and under-dispersion relative to the standard binomial distribution.

An Automated Profile-Likelihood-Based Algorithm for Fast Computation of the Maximum Likelihood Estimate in a Statistical Model for Crash Data

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2022
Numerical computation of maximum likelihood estimates (MLE) is one of the most common problems encountered in applied statistics. Even if there exist many algorithms considered as performing, they can suffer in some cases for one or many of the following

Approximate Profile Maximum Likelihood

J. Mach. Learn. Res., 2017
We propose an efficient algorithm for approximate computation of the profile maximum likelihood (PML), a variant of maximum likelihood maximizing the probability of observing a sufficient statistic rather than the empirical sample. The PML has appealing theoretical properties, but is difficult to compute exactly.

On the estimation of the structure parameter of a normal distribution of order p

Statistica, 2007
In this paper we compare four different approaches to estimate the structure parameter of a normal distribution of order p (often called exponential power distribution).

Internalizing Symptom Profiles Among Youth in Foster Care: A Comparison Study

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Background: A high prevalence of anxiety and depression is found among youth in foster care. There is limited knowledge on the anxiety and depression symptom profiles of youth in foster care. We examined latent profiles of anxiety and depression symptoms

Using PyBioNetFit to leverage qualitative and quantitative data in biological model parameterization and uncertainty quantification

Frontiers in Immunology
Data generated in studies of cellular regulatory systems are often qualitative. For example, measurements of signaling readouts in the presence and absence of mutations may reveal a rank ordering of responses across conditions but not the precise extents
