This paper is the generalization of weight-fused elastic net (Fu and Xu, 2012), which performs group variable selection by combining weight-fused LASSO(wfLasso) and elastic net (Zou and Hastie, 2005) penalties. In this study, the elastic net penalty is replaced by adaptive elastic net penalty (AdaEnet) (Zou and Zhang, 2009), and a new group variable selection algorithm with oracle property (Fan and Li, 2001; Zou, 2006) is obtained. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn this article, we propose an approach for incorporating continuous and discrete original outcome distributions into the usual exponential family regression models. The new approach is an extension of the works of Suissa (1991) and Suissa and Blais (1995), which present methods to estimate the risk of an event defined in a sample subspace of an original continuous outcome variable. Simulation studies are presented in order to illustrate the performance of the developed methodology. Real data sets are analyzed by using the proposed models. 相似文献

Several probability distributions such as power-Pareto distribution (see Gilchrist 2000 and Hankin and Lee 2006), various forms of lambda distributions (see Ramberg and Schmeiser 1974 and Freimer et al. 1988), Govindarajulu distribution (see Nair, Sankaran, and Vineshkumar 2012), etc., do not have manageable distribution functions, though they have tractable quantile functions. Hence, analytical study of the properties of Chernoff distance of two random variables associated with these distributions via traditional distribution function-based tool becomes difficult. To make this simple, in this paper, we introduce quantile-based Chernoff distance for (left or right) truncated random variables and study its various properties. Some useful bounds as well as characterization results are obtained. 相似文献

AbstractIn the present paper we develop bootstrap tests of hypothesis, based on simulation, for the transition probability matrix arising in the context of a multi-state model. The bootstrap test statistic is based on the paper of Tattar and Vaman (2008), which develops a statistic for the testing problems concerning the transition probability matrix of the non homogeneous Markov process. 相似文献

ABSTRACTRandom vectors with positive components are common in many applied fields, for example, in meteorology, when daily precipitation is measured through a region Marchenko and Genton (2010). Frequently, the log-normal multivariate distribution is used for modeling this type of data. This modeling approach is not appropriate for data with high asymmetry or kurtosis. Consequently, more flexible multivariate distributions than the log-normal multivariate are required. As an alternative to this distribution, we propose the log-alpha-power multivariate and log-skew-normal multivariate models. The first model is an extension for positive data of the fractional order statistics model Durrans (1992). The second one is an extension of the log-skew-normal model studied by Mateu-Figueras and Pawlowsky-Glahn (2007). We study parameter estimation for these models by means of pseudo-likelihood and maximum likelihood methods. We illustrate the proposal analyzing a real dataset. 相似文献

Baker (2008) introduced a new class of bivariate distributions based on distributions of order statistics from two independent samples of size n. Lin and Huang (2010) discovered an important property of Baker’s distribution and showed that the Pearson’s correlation coefficient for this distribution converges to maximum attainable value, i.e., the correlation coefficient of the Fréchet upper bound, as n increases to infinity. Bairamov and Bayramoglu (2013) investigated a new class of bivariate distributions constructed by using Baker’s model and distributions of order statistics from dependent random variables, allowing higher correlation than that of Baker’s distribution. In this article, a new class of Baker’s type bivariate distributions with high correlation are constructed based on distributions of order statistics by using an arbitrary continuous copula instead of the product copula. 相似文献

In this article, we establish a new complete convergence theorem for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables. As corollaries, many results on the almost sure convergence and complete convergence for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables are obtained. In particular, the results of Jing and Liang (2008), Sung (2012), and Wu (2010) can be obtained. 相似文献

In this article, the complete moment convergence of weighted sums for ?-mixing sequence of random variables is investigated. By applying moment inequality and truncation methods, the equivalent conditions of complete moment convergence of weighted sums for ?-mixing sequence of random variables are established. These results promote and improve the corresponding results obtained by Li et al. (1995) and Gut (1993) from i.i.d. to ?-mixing setting. Moreover, we obtain the complete moment convergence of moving average processes based on ?-mixing random variables, which extends the result of Kim et al. (2008) in the sense that it does not require a specific mixing rate. 相似文献

Adaptive designs find an important application in the estimation of unknown percentiles for an underlying dose-response curve. A nonparametric adaptive design was suggested by Mugno et al. (2004) to simultaneously estimate multiple percentiles of an unknown dose-response curve via generalized Polya urns. In this article, we examine the properties of the design proposed by Mugno et al. (2004) when delays in observing responses are encountered. Using simulations, we evaluate a modification of the design under varying group sizes. Our results demonstrate unbiased estimation with minimal loss in efficiency when compared to the original compound urn design. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThis article considers inference for partial linear models with right censored data. We use empirical likelihood based on the Buckley and James (1979) estimating equation to derive the confidence region for the regression parameter. We introduce an adjusted empirical likelihood ratio statistic for the parameter of interest and show that its limiting distribution is standard chi-square. A simulation is carried out to compare our method with the synthetic data approach in Wang and Li (2002). 相似文献

A proposed method based on frailty models is used to identify longitudinal biomarkers or surrogates for a multivariate survival. This method is an extention of earlier models by Wulfsohn and Tsiatis (1997) and Song et al. (2002). In this article, similar to Henderson et al. (2002), a joint likelihood function combines the likelihood functions of the longitudinal biomarkers and the multivariate survival times. We use simulations to explore how the number of individuals, the number of time points per individual and the functional form of the random effects from the longitudianl biomarkers influence the power to detect the association of a longitudinal biomarker and the multivariate survival time. The proposed method is illustrate by using the gastric cancer data. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe authors discuss the convergence for weighted sums of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent (NQD) random variables and obtain some new results which extend and improve the result of Bai and Cheng (2000). In addition, we relax some restrictions of the conditions in their result. Some new methods are used in this article which differ from that of Bai and Cheng (2000). 相似文献

The problem of estimating of the vector β of the linear regression model y = Aβ + ? with ? ~ Np(0, σ2Ip) under quadratic loss function is considered when common variance σ2 is unknown. We first find a class of minimax estimators for this problem which extends a class given by Maruyama and Strawderman (2005) and using these estimators, we obtain a large class of (proper and generalized) Bayes minimax estimators and show that the result of Maruyama and Strawderman (2005) is a special case of our result. We also show that under certain conditions, these generalized Bayes minimax estimators have greater numerical stability (i.e., smaller condition number) than the least-squares estimator. 相似文献

ABSTRACTGandy and Jensen (2005) proposed goodness-of-fit tests for Aalen's additive risk model. In this article, we demonstrate that the approach of Gandy and Jensen (2005) can be applied to left-truncated right-censored (LTRC) data and doubly censored data. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed tests. The proposed tests are illustrated using heart transplant data. 相似文献

Li et al. (2007) developed an estimation method for quantile functions in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space for complete data, and Park and Kim (2011) proposed an estimation method using the ε-insensitive loss. This article extends these estimation methods to left-truncated and right-censored data. As a measure of goodness of fit, the check loss and the ε-insensitive loss were used to estimate the quantile function. The ε-insensitive loss can shrink the estimated coefficients toward zero; hence, it can reduce the variability of the estimates. Simulation studies show that the estimated quantile functions based on the ε-insensitive loss perform slightly better when ε is adequately chosen. 相似文献

A new class of lifetime distributions, which can exhibit with upside-down bathtub-shaped, bathtub-shaped, decreasing, and increasing failure rates, is introduced. The new distribution is constructed by compounding generalized Weibull and logarithmic distributions, leading to improvement on the lifetime distribution considered in Dimitrakopoulou et al. (2007) by having no restriction on the shape parameter and extending the result studied by Tahmasbi and Rezaei (2008) in the general form. The proposed model includes the exponential–logarithmic and Weibull–logarithmic distributions as special cases. Various statistical properties of the proposed class are discussed. Furthermore, estimation via the maximum likelihood method and the Fisher information matrix are discussed. Applications to real data demonstrate that the new class of distributions is more flexible than other recently proposed classes. 相似文献

We develop a simple corrected score for logistic regression with errors-in-covariates. The new method is an extension of the consistent functional methods proposed by Huang and Wang (2001) and is closely related to the corrected score method by Nakamura (1990) and Stefanski (1989). The new method requires that the measurement error distribution is known, but does not require normality. The new method yields a consistent and asymptotically normal estimator under regularity conditions. We examine the finite-sample performance of the new estimator through simulation studies. Finally, we illustrate the new method by applying it to an AIDS study. 相似文献

ABSTRACTEstimating functionshave been shown to be convenient to study inference for non linear time series models. Recently, Thavaneswaran et al. (2012) used combined estimating functions to study inference for random coefficient autoregressive (RCA) models with generalized autoregressive heteroscedasticity errors. While most RCA modeling assumes that the random term and the error are independent, Chandra and Taniguchi (2001) studied inference for RCA models with correlated errors using linear estimating functions. In this paper, we derive the quadratic estimating functions for the joint estimation of the conditional mean, variance, and correlation parameters of the RCA models with correlated errors. 相似文献
