Book Statistical Analysis with Measurement Error or Misclassification

Download or read book Statistical Analysis with Measurement Error or Misclassification written by Grace Y. Yi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-02 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph on measurement error and misclassification covers a broad range of problems and emphasizes unique features in modeling and analyzing problems arising from medical research and epidemiological studies. Many measurement error and misclassification problems have been addressed in various fields over the years as well as with a wide spectrum of data, including event history data (such as survival data and recurrent event data), correlated data (such as longitudinal data and clustered data), multi-state event data, and data arising from case-control studies. Statistical Analysis with Measurement Error or Misclassification: Strategy, Method and Application brings together assorted methods in a single text and provides an update of recent developments for a variety of settings. Measurement error effects and strategies of handling mismeasurement for different models are closely examined in combination with applications to specific problems. Readers with diverse backgrounds and objectives can utilize this text. Familiarity with inference methods—such as likelihood and estimating function theory—or modeling schemes in varying settings—such as survival analysis and longitudinal data analysis—can result in a full appreciation of the material, but it is not essential since each chapter provides basic inference frameworks and background information on an individual topic to ease the access of the material. The text is presented in a coherent and self-contained manner and highlights the essence of commonly used modeling and inference methods. This text can serve as a reference book for researchers interested in statistical methodology for handling data with measurement error or misclassification; as a textbook for graduate students, especially for those majoring in statistics and biostatistics; or as a book for applied statisticians whose interest focuses on analysis of error-contaminated data. Grace Y. Yi is Professor of Statistics and University Research Chair at the University of Waterloo. She is the 2010 winner of the CRM-SSC Prize, an honor awarded in recognition of a statistical scientist's professional accomplishments in research during the first 15 years after having received a doctorate. She is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and an Elected Member of the International Statistical Institute.

Book Measurement Error in Nonlinear Models

Download or read book Measurement Error in Nonlinear Models written by Raymond J. Carroll and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1995-07-06 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides an up-to-date discussion of analysis strategies for regression problems in which predictor variables are measured with errors. The analysis of nonlinear regression models includes generalized linear models, transform-both-sides models and quasilikelihood and variance function problems. The text concentrates on the general ideas and strategies of estimation and inference rather than being concerned with a specific problem. Measurement error occurs in many fields, such as biometry, epidemiology and economics. In particular, the book contains a large number of epidemiological examples. An outline of strategies for handling progressively more difficult problems is also provided.

Book Semiparametric Maximum Likelihood for Regression with Measurement Error

Download or read book Semiparametric Maximum Likelihood for Regression with Measurement Error written by Eun-Young Suh and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semiparametric maximum likelihood analysis allows inference in errors-invariables models with small loss of efficiency relative to full likelihood analysis but with significantly weakened assumptions. In addition, since no distributional assumptions are made for the nuisance parameters, the analysis more nearly parallels that for usual regression. These highly desirable features and the high degree of modelling flexibility permitted warrant the development of the approach for routine use. This thesis does so for the special cases of linear and nonlinear regression with measurement errors in one explanatory variable. A transparent and flexible computational approach is developed, the analysis is exhibited on some examples, and finite sample properties of estimates, approximate standard errors, and likelihood ratio inference are clarified with simulation.

Book Semiparametric Estimation in Logistic Measurement Error Models

Download or read book Semiparametric Estimation in Logistic Measurement Error Models written by Raymond J. Carroll and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We describe semiparametric estimation and inference in a logistic regression model with measurement error in the predictors. The particular measurement error model consists of a primary data set in which only the response Y and a fallible surrogate W of the true predictor X are observed, plus a smaller validation data set for which (Y, X, W) are observed. Except for the underlying assumption of a logistic model in the true predictor, no parametric distributional assumptions are made about the true predictor or its surrogate. We develop a semiparametric parameter estimate of the logistic regression parameter which is asymptotically normally distributed and computationally feasible. The estimate relies on kernel regression techniques. For scalar predictors, by a detailed analysis of the mean-squared error of the parameter estimate, we obtain a representation for an optimal bandwidth.

Book Mixed Effects Models for Complex Data

Download or read book Mixed Effects Models for Complex Data written by Lang Wu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2009-11-11 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although standard mixed effects models are useful in a range of studies, other approaches must often be used in correlation with them when studying complex or incomplete data. Mixed Effects Models for Complex Data discusses commonly used mixed effects models and presents appropriate approaches to address dropouts, missing data, measurement errors, censoring, and outliers. For each class of mixed effects model, the author reviews the corresponding class of regression model for cross-sectional data. An overview of general models and methods, along with motivating examples After presenting real data examples and outlining general approaches to the analysis of longitudinal/clustered data and incomplete data, the book introduces linear mixed effects (LME) models, generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs), nonlinear mixed effects (NLME) models, and semiparametric and nonparametric mixed effects models. It also includes general approaches for the analysis of complex data with missing values, measurement errors, censoring, and outliers. Self-contained coverage of specific topics Subsequent chapters delve more deeply into missing data problems, covariate measurement errors, and censored responses in mixed effects models. Focusing on incomplete data, the book also covers survival and frailty models, joint models of survival and longitudinal data, robust methods for mixed effects models, marginal generalized estimating equation (GEE) models for longitudinal or clustered data, and Bayesian methods for mixed effects models. Background material In the appendix, the author provides background information, such as likelihood theory, the Gibbs sampler, rejection and importance sampling methods, numerical integration methods, optimization methods, bootstrap, and matrix algebra. Failure to properly address missing data, measurement errors, and other issues in statistical analyses can lead to severely biased or misleading results. This book explores the biases that arise when naïve methods are used and shows which approaches should be used to achieve accurate results in longitudinal data analysis.

Book The Computation and Use of the Asymptotic Covariance Matrix for Measurement Error Models  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Computation and Use of the Asymptotic Covariance Matrix for Measurement Error Models Classic Reprint written by Paul T. Boggs and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Computation and Use of the Asymptotic Covariance Matrix for Measurement Error Models This problem goes under various names, including errors in variables, generalized least squares, orthogonal distance regression, and measurement error models. We prefer measurement error models in deference to the book of Fuller [1987] that presents the definitive modern treatment of the problem. We also use the term orthogonal distance regression since, as we show in 2, it is a useful geometric description of the problem actually solved. As in the ordinary least squares case, when using measurement error models one is frequently interested in constructing. Confidence regions and or confidence intervals for the model parameters. To this end, Fuller derives the asymptotic form of the covariance matrix-and uses it in several examples. It is well known, however, that for nonlinear models in general, and for measurement error models in particular, confidence regions and intervals constructed using the covariance matrix are only approximate.

Book Simple Estimation of Semiparametric Models with Measurement Errors

Download or read book Simple Estimation of Semiparametric Models with Measurement Errors written by Kirill S. Evdokimov and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We develop a practical way of addressing the Errors-In-Variables (EIV) problem in the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) framework. We focus on the settings in which the variance of the measurement errors is a fraction of that of the mismeasured variables, which is typical for empirical applications. For any initial set of moment conditions our approach provides a “corrected” set of moment conditions that do not suffer from the EIV bias. The EIV-robust estimator is then computed as a standard GMM estimator with these corrected moment conditions. We show that our estimator is √n-consistent, and that the standard tests and confidence intervals provide valid inference. This is true even when the EIV are so large that the naive estimator (that ignores the EIV problem) may have a large bias with confidence intervals having 0% coverage. Our approach requires no nonparametric estimation, which can be particularly useful when the measurement errors are multivariate, serially correlated, or non-classical.
