Inferences in semi-parametric dynamic mixed models for longitudinal count data

This paper considers a semi-parametric mixed model for longitudinal counts under the assumption that for conditional on a common random effect over time the repeated count responses of an individual follow a Poisson AR(1) (auto-regressive order 1) non-stationary correlation structure. A step-by-step estimation approach is developed which provides consistent estimators for the non-parametric function, regression parameters, variance of the random effects, and auto-correlation structure of the model. Proofs for the consistency properties of the estimators along with their convergence rates are derived. A simulation study is conducted to examine first the estimation effects on parameters when the non-parametric function is ignored, and then an overall estimation study is carried out in the presence of the non-parametric function by including its estimation as well.     

Mixed Model-Based Hazard Estimation

This article proposes a new method for estimation of the hazard function from a set of censored failure time data, with a view to extending the general approach to more complicated models. The approach is based on a mixed model representation of penalized spline hazard estimators. One payoff is the automation of the smoothing parameter choice through restricted maximum likelihood. Another is the option to use standard mixed model software for automatic hazard estimation.

Principal Component Analysis of Two-Dimensional Functional Data

This article presents and compares two approaches of principal component (PC) analysis for two-dimensional functional data on a possibly irregular domain. The first approach applies the singular value decomposition of the data matrix obtained from a fine discretization of the two-dimensional functions. When the functions are only observed at discrete points that are possibly sparse and may differ from function to function, this approach incorporates an initial smoothing step prior to the singular value decomposition. The second approach employs a mixed effects model that specifies the PC functions as bivariate splines on triangulations and the PC scores as random effects. We apply the thin-plate penalty for regularizing the function estimation and develop an effective expectation–maximization algorithm for calculating the penalized likelihood estimates of the parameters. The mixed effects model-based approach integrates scatterplot smoothing and functional PC analysis in a unified framework and is shown in a simulation study to be more efficient than the two-step approach that separately performs smoothing and PC analysis. The proposed methods are applied to analyze the temperature variation in Texas using 100 years of temperature data recorded by Texas weather stations. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

The proposed estimators are implemented under the nonlinear mixed effects model framework. The small sample properties are illustrated through a simulation experiment.     

Moment Estimation for Multivariate Extreme Value Distribution in a Nested Logistic Model

This paper considers multivariate extreme value distribution in a nested logistic model. The dependence structure for this model is discussed. We find a useful transformation that transformed variables possess the mixed independence. Thus, the explicit algebraic formulae for a characteristic function and moments may be given. We use the method of moments to derive estimators of the dependence parameters and investigate the properties of these estimators in large samples via asymptotic theory and in finite samples via computer simulation. We also compare moment estimation with a maximum likelihood estimation in finite sample sizes. The results indicate that moment estimation is good for all practical purposes.     

Consistent nonnegative estimates of variance components

Automatic Differentiation to Facilitate Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Nonlinear Random Effects Models

Maximum likelihood estimation in random effects models for non-Gaussian data is a computationally challenging task that currently receives much attention. This article shows that the estimation process can be facilitated by the use of automatic differentiation, which is a technique for exact numerical differentiation of functions represented as computer programs. Automatic differentiation is applied to an approximation of the likelihood function, obtained by using either Laplace's method of integration or importance sampling. The approach is applied to generalized linear mixed models. The computational speed is high compared to the Monte Carlo EM algorithm and the Monte Carlo Newton–Raphson method.
