A profile likelihood approach for longitudinal data analysis

open access: yesBiometrics, 2018
SummaryInappropriate choice of working correlation structure in generalized estimating equations (GEE) could lead to inefficient parameter estimation while impractical normality assumption in likelihood approach would limit its applicability in longitudinal data analysis. In this article, we propose a profile likelihood method for estimating parameters

On Profile Likelihood

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2000
Abstract We show that semiparametric profile likelihoods, where the nuisance parameter has been profiled out, behave like ordinary likelihoods in that they have a quadratic expansion. In this expansion the score function and the Fisher information are replaced by the efficient score function and efficient Fisher information.

Adjustments to profile likelihood

Biometrika, 1989
Summary: Conditional and marginal likelihoods constructed from parameter-dependent functions of the data have an additional parameter dependence that changes with the choice of supporting metric for the corresponding densities. We consider constructing marginal and conditional likelihoods by using densities expressed in terms of an intrinsic choice of ...

Adaptive Transferred-profile Likelihood Learning

2016 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN), 2016
The recent success of representation learning is built upon the learning of relevant features, in particular from unlabelled data available in different domains. This raises the question of how to transfer and reuse such knowledge effectively so that the learning of a new task can be made easier or be improved.

Profile likelihood in systems biology

The FEBS Journal, 2013
Inferring knowledge about biological processes by a mathematical description is a major characteristic of Systems Biology. To understand and predict system's behavior the available experimental information is translated into a mathematical model.
