Since the seminal paper by Cook and Weisberg [9], local influence, next to case deletion, has gained popularity as a tool to detect influential subjects and measurements for a variety of statistical models. For the linear mixed model the approach leads to easily interpretable and computationally convenient expressions, not only highlighting influential subjects, but also which aspect of their profile leads to undue influence on the model's fit [17]. Ouwens et al. [24] applied the method to the Poisson-normal generalized linear mixed model (GLMM). Given the model's nonlinear structure, these authors did not derive interpretable components but rather focused on a graphical depiction of influence. In this paper, we consider GLMMs for binary, count, and time-to-event data, with the additional feature of accommodating overdispersion whenever necessary. For each situation, three approaches are considered, based on: (1) purely numerical derivations; (2) using a closed-form expression of the marginal likelihood function; and (3) using an integral representation of this likelihood. Unlike when case deletion is used, this leads to interpretable components, allowing not only to identify influential subjects, but also to study the cause thereof. The methodology is illustrated in case studies that range over the three data types mentioned. 相似文献

In this article, we investigate the asymptotic normality of the Hill's estimator of the tail index parameter, when the observations are weakly dependent in the sense of Doukhan and Louhichi (1999) and are drawn from a strictly linear process. We show that the previous result on Hill estimator obtained by Rootzen et al. (1990) and Resnick and Starica (1997) for strong mixing can be extended to weak dependence. 相似文献

Andersen's plot, a graphical method for testing the proportionality assumption in the Cox Regression Model (Cox, 1972), first proposed by Kay (1977) and popularized by Andersen (1982), has been used widely in biomedical research to check the validity of applying this popular regression model in survival analysis. Our theoretical derivation and examples show that the theoretical basis of this method is flawed. The graphical method should not be used in testing the proportionality. Instead, formal analytical methods based on residuals such as Cox–Snell residual and martingale residual should be used in practice. 相似文献

This paper suggests a new stratified randomized response model based on Kuk's [Biometrika (1990), 77, 2, pp.436–438] model that has Neyman allocation and considerable gain in precision. It has been identified that the stratified randomized response models due to Kim and Warde (2004), Kim and Elam's (2005), and Kim and Elam's (2007) are members of the proposed model. It is shown that the proposed model is more efficient than Kuk's (1990) model both theoretically and empirically. The results of this paper are also extended in the situation when trials are repeated. 相似文献

This paper aimed at providing an efficient new unbiased estimator for estimating the proportion of a potentially sensitive attribute in survey sampling. The suggested randomization device makes use of the means, variances of scrambling variables, and the two scalars lie between “zero” and “one.” Thus, the same amount of information has been used at the estimation stage. The variance formula of the suggested estimator has been obtained. We have compared the proposed unbiased estimator with that of Kuk (1990) and Franklin (1989), and Singh and Chen (2009) estimators. Relevant conditions are obtained in which the proposed estimator is more efficient than Kuk (1990) and Franklin (1989) and Singh and Chen (2009) estimators. The optimum estimator (OE) in the proposed class of estimators has been identified which finally depends on moments ratios of the scrambling variables. The variance of the optimum estimator has been obtained and compared with that of the Kuk (1990) and Franklin (1989) estimator and Singh and Chen (2009) estimator. It is interesting to mention that the “optimum estimator” of the class of estimators due to Singh and Chen (2009) depends on the parameter π under investigation which limits the use of Singh and Chen (2009) OE in practice while the proposed OE in this paper is free from such a constraint. The proposed OE depends only on the moments ratios of scrambling variables. This is an advantage over the Singh and Chen (2009) estimator. Numerical illustrations are given in the support of the present study when the scrambling variables follow normal distribution. Theoretical and empirical results are very sound and quite illuminating in the favor of the present study. 相似文献

In this article, we are going to study the almost everywhere convergence for sequences of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent random variables by using truncation technique and Kolmogorov-type generalized three-series theorem. Our results generalize and improve the corresponding results of Wu (2002) and Li and Yang (2008). We also give some examples showing that our extensions are not trivial. 相似文献

Since the seminal paper of Ghirardato (1997), it is known that Fubini theorem for non additive measures can be available only for functions as “slice-comonotonic” in the framework of product algebra. Later, inspired by Ghirardato (1997), Chateauneuf and Lefort (2008) obtained some Fubini theorems for non additive measures in the framework of product σ-algebra. In this article, we study Fubini theorem for non additive measures in the framework of g-expectation. We give some different assumptions that provide Fubini theorem in the framework of g-expectation. 相似文献

We discuss a one-sample location test that can be used when the dimension and the sample size are large. It is well-known that the power of Hotelling’s test decreases when the dimension is close to the sample size. To address this loss of power, some non exact approaches were proposed, e.g., Dempster (1958, 1960), Bai and Saranadasa (1996), and Srivastava and Du (2008). In this article, we focus on Hotelling’s test and Dempster’s test. The comparative merits and demerits of these two tests vary according to the local parameters. In particular, we consider the situation where it is difficult to determine which test should be used, that is, where the two tests are asymptotically equivalent in terms of local power. We propose a new statistic based on the weighted averaging of Hotelling’s T2-statistic and Dempster’s statistic that can be applied in such a situation. Our weight is determined on the basis of the maximum local asymptotic power on a restricted parameter space that induces local asymptotic equivalence between Hotelling’s test and Dempster’s test. Numerical results show that our test is more stable than Hotelling’s T2-statistic and Dempster’s statistic in most parameter settings. 相似文献

In this paper, we adjust the Kuk (1990) model for both protection and efficiency by making use of proportions of two non sensitive characteristics which are unrelated to the main sensitive characteristic of interest. Various situations, where the proportions of the two non sensitive characteristics in the population of interest are known and that when these proportions are unknown, have been investigated. We compared the adjusted model and Kuk's model through a simulation study from both the protection and efficiency points of view. 相似文献

The testing of the stratum effects in the Cox model is an important and commonly asked question in medical research as well as in many other fields. In this paper, we will discuss the problem where one observes interval-censored failure time data and generalize the procedure given in Sun and Yang (2000) for right-censored data. The asymptotic distribution of the new test statistic is established and the simulation study conducted for the evaluation of the finite sample properties of the method suggests that the generalized procedure seems to work well for practical situations. An application is provided. 相似文献

In this paper, the focus is on sequential analysis of multivariate financial time series with heavy tails. The mean vector and the covariance matrix of multivariate non linear models are simultaneously monitored by modifying conventional control charts to identify structural changes in the data. The considered target process is a constant conditional correlation model (cf. Bollerslev, 1990), an extended constant conditional correlation model (cf. He and Teräsvirta, 2004), a dynamic conditional correlation model (cf. Engle, 2002), or a generalized dynamic conditional correlation model (cf. Capiello et al., 2006). For statistical surveillance we use control charts based on residuals. Further, the procedures are constructed for t-distribution. The detection speed of these charts is compared via Monte Carlo simulation. In the empirical study, the procedure with the best performance is applied to log-returns of the stock market indices FTSE and CAC. 相似文献

Cooray and Ananda (2008) pioneered a lifetime model commonly used in reliability studies. Based on this distribution, we propose a new model called the odd log-logistic generalized half-normal distribution for describing fatigue lifetime data. Various of its structural properties are derived. We discuss the method of maximum likelihood to fit the model parameters. For different parameter settings and sample sizes, some simulation studies compare the performance of the new lifetime model. It can be very useful, and its superiority is illustrated by means of a real dataset. 相似文献

This paper presents a new variable weight method, called the singular value decomposition (SVD) approach, for Kohonen competitive learning (KCL) algorithms based on the concept of Varshavsky et al. [18]. Integrating the weighted fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm with KCL, in this paper, we propose a weighted fuzzy KCL (WFKCL) algorithm. The goal of the proposed WFKCL algorithm is to reduce the clustering error rate when data contain some noise variables. Compared with the k-means, FCM and KCL with existing variable-weight methods, the proposed WFKCL algorithm with the proposed SVD's weight method provides a better clustering performance based on the error rate criterion. Furthermore, the complexity of the proposed SVD's approach is less than Pal et al. [17], Wang et al. [19] and Hung et al. [9]. 相似文献

This article recasts the optimal allocations of coverage limits for two independent random losses. Under some regularity conditions on the two concerned probability density functions, we build the sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of the optimal allocation of coverage limits, and derive the optimal allocation whenever they do exist. The results supplement Lu and Meng (2011, Proposition 5.2) and Hu and Wang (2014, Theorem 5.1). 相似文献

This paper treats the problem of stochastic comparisons for the extreme order statistics arising from heterogeneous beta distributions. Some sufficient conditions involved in majorization-type partial orders are provided for comparing the extreme order statistics in the sense of various magnitude orderings including the likelihood ratio order, the reversed hazard rate order, the usual stochastic order, and the usual multivariate stochastic order. The results established here strengthen and extend those including Kochar and Xu (2007), Mao and Hu (2010), Balakrishnan et al. (2014), and Torrado (2015). A real application in system assembly and some numerical examples are also presented to illustrate the theoretical results. 相似文献

Fiducial inference has been gaining presence recently and it is the intention of the present article to look at the notion of fiducial generators; meaning procedures to simulate parameter values that in some sense correspond to simulations from some implicit fiducial distribution. It is well known that when the distribution has group structure, stemming from the natural pivotal associated, a fiducial may be obtained. It is in the non group distributions that there appears to be still room for finding a fiducial distribution. Recently some general procedures have been proposed for dealing with generalized fiducials, but these depend on certain choices for a structural equation or a fiducial equation, as in Hannig (2009) or Taraldsen and Lindqvist (2013), respectively. A brief presentation is made of an earlier approach to fiducial inference for multivariate parameters, as in Brillinger (1962), and the implied fiducial generator introduced in Engen and Lillegård (1997), trying to connect them. Three interesting non group distributions are seen; two of them, the truncated exponential and the two-parameter gamma, already reported in literature. A third non group distribution is analyzed; the inverse Gaussian, connecting the fiducial that results following Brillinger (1962), with a result pertaining confidence limits for the shape parameter in Hsieh (1990). In the three cases, comparisons are made with the Bayesian posteriors that have been known to be close numerically. Some discussion is made on the issue of singularities of the fiducial density and its connection with densities that do not integrate to unity. As to the case of discrete observables, some comments are made for the Bernoulli distribution, only. 相似文献

In this article, we establish the complete moment convergence of a moving-average process generated by a class of random variables satisfying the Rosenthal-type maximal inequality and the week mean dominating condition. On the one hand, we give the correct proof for the case p = 1 in Ko (2015); on the other hand, we also consider the case αp = 1 which was not considered in Ko (2015). The results obtained in this article generalize some corresponding ones for some dependent sequences. 相似文献

In this paper, we establish a complete convergence result and a complete moment convergence result for i.i.d. random variables under moment condition which is slightly weaker than the existence of the moment generating function. The main results extend and improve the related known results of Lanzinger (1998) and Gut and Stadtmüller (2011). 相似文献

The aim of this article is the construction of the test statistic for the detection of changes in vector autoregressive (AR) models where both AR parameters and the variance matrix of the error term are the subjects of a change. The approximating distribution of the proposed statistic is the Gumbel distribution. The proof stands on the approximation of weakly dependent random vectors by independent ones and by application of Horváth’s extension of Darling-Erdös extremal result for random vectors, see Darling and Erdös (1956) and Horváth (1993). The test statistic is a modification of the likelihood ratio. 相似文献
