Evaluating potential bias of REML estimators of heritability

open access: yes, 2018
Genomic models that incorporate dense SNP genotypes are increasingly being used and studied for inference of variance parameters and narrow-sense heritability. The variance parameters of a linear mixed model linking a phenotype to SNP genotypes can be inferred using restricted maximum likelihood, which produces consistent, asymptotically normal ...

Environmental Performance Evaluation Under the Frontier Analysis Framework: A Farm‐Level Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantifying and improving the environmental performance (EP) of agriculture has become an urgent research and policy priority. Over the past three decades, frontier‐based analytical frameworks have been widely applied to evaluate farm‐level EP.

Bayesian and Frequentist Approaches to Hedonic Modeling in a Geo-Statistical Framework [PDF]

open access: yes
We compare Least Squares, Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian approaches to estimation in a Hedonic context. The approaches are compared from theoretical and practical perspectives and from the viewpoint of a policy maker or urban planner. The approaches are

Focused deterrence can reduce crime: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials and quasi‐experiments

open access: yesCriminology &Public Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research summary Crime and violence continue to be problems that plague urban areas across the United States and the globe. One key approach for responding to these problems is “focused deterrence” which includes programs that prevent criminal behavior by blending criminal justice, social service, and community‐based action.

DImodelsMulti: An R package for fitting Diversity‐Interactions models to repeated measures or multivariate data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Diversity‐Interactions (DI) modelling is a regression‐based approach used for modelling the biodiversity and ecosystem function (BEF) relationship. This methodology assesses the effects of manipulating (initial) species richness, composition (species identities) and species proportions on ecosystem function responses measured at a later point ...

Robust Henderson III estimators of variance components in the nested error model [PDF]

open access: yes
Common methods for estimating variance components in Linear Mixed Models include Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML). These methods are based on the strong assumption of multivariate normal distribution and it is well know ...
