Robust Method for Confidence Interval Estimation in Outlier-Prone Datasets: Application to Molecular and Biophysical Data. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules
Estimating confidence intervals in small or noisy datasets is a recurring challenge in biomolecular research, particularly when data contain outliers or exhibit high variability.

A robust and efficient algorithm to find profile likelihood confidence intervals [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics and Computing, 2021
AbstractProfile likelihood confidence intervals are a robust alternative to Wald’s method if the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator are not met. However, the constrained optimization problem defining profile likelihood confidence intervals can be difficult to solve in these situations, because the likelihood function may exhibit ...

Adaptive Robust Confidence Intervals [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
This paper studies the construction of adaptive confidence intervals under Huber's contamination model when the contamination proportion is unknown. For the robust confidence interval of a Gaussian mean, we show that the optimal length of an adaptive interval must be exponentially wider than that of a non-adaptive one.

Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for 11 Robust Correlations in the Presence of Outliers and Leverage Observations

open access: yesMethodology, 2022
Researchers often examine whether two continuous variables (X and Y) are linearly related. Pearson’s correlation (r) is a widely-employed statistic for assessing bivariate linearity.

CESER: An R Package to Compute Cluster Estimated Standard Errors

open access: yesJournal of Open Research Software, 2021
This paper presents an implementation in R of the Cluster Estimated Standard Errors (CESE) proposed by [12]. The method estimates the covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients of linear models in grouped data sets with correlation among ...

Robust Inferential Techniques Applied to the Analysis of the Tropospheric Ozone Concentration in an Urban Area

open access: yesSensors, 2021
This paper analyzes 12 years of tropospheric ozone (O3) concentration measurements using robust techniques. The measurements were taken at an air quality monitoring station called Belisario, which is in Quito, Ecuador; the data collection time period was

Contrasting diversity values: statistical inferences based on overlapping confidence intervals. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Ecologists often contrast diversity (species richness and abundances) using tests for comparing means or indices. However, many popular software applications do not support performing standard inferential statistics for estimates of species richness and ...
