Download or read book Partially Linear Models written by Wolfgang Härdle and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last ten years, there has been increasing interest and activity in the general area of partially linear regression smoothing in statistics. Many methods and techniques have been proposed and studied. This monograph hopes to bring an up-to-date presentation of the state of the art of partially linear regression techniques. The emphasis is on methodologies rather than on the theory, with a particular focus on applications of partially linear regression techniques to various statistical problems. These problems include least squares regression, asymptotically efficient estimation, bootstrap resampling, censored data analysis, linear measurement error models, nonlinear measurement models, nonlinear and nonparametric time series models.
Download or read book Linear Models written by Calyampudi R. Rao and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-06 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date account of the theory and applications of linear models, for use as a textbook in statistics at graduate level as well as an accompanying text for other courses in which linear models play a part. The authors present a unified theory of inference from linear models with minimal assumptions, not only through least squares theory, but also using alternative methods of estimation and testing based on convex loss functions and general estimating equations. Highlights include: - a special emphasis on sensitivity analysis and model selection; - a chapter devoted to the analysis of categorical data based on logic, loglinear, and logistic regression models; - a chapter devoted to incomplete data sets; - an extensive appendix on matrix theory; - a chapter devoted to the analysis of categorical data based on a unified presentation of generalized linear models including GEE-methods for correlated response; - a chapter devoted to incomplete data sets including regression diagnostics to identify Non-MCAR-processes The material covered is thus invaluable not only to graduates, but also to researchers and consultants in statistics.

Download or read book Heteroscedastic Linear Model Estimation Based on Ranks written by Themba Louis Nyirenda and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For standard estimators, data that are heteroscedastic in nature contain outlying values which can lead to poor performance. In this study, we present a robust interactive method for estimating the location and scale parameters in the general linear model, using a rank based method. It is assumed that the errors are symmetric about 0 and the variance function model is nonlinear with respect to the scale coefficients and the design. The function is known up to a scale constant. We propose taking the logarithm of the absolute values of the variance function to linearize it. The rank estimation of the scale coefficients amounts to regressing logs of absolute residuals from an initial rank based fit on to the design. The resulting scale coefficient estimates are used to form scale constants in a weighted signed-rank method. Thus, iterating between these two rank based methods leads to the desired estimates that are obtained from linear model fits for both types of coefficients. For the heteroscedastic linear model under consideration, this study has made the following contributions: (1) the asymptotic normality results that are established here show that the estimators are both consistent and highly efficient; (2) in each estimation problem, the Iterated Reweighted Least Squares (IRWLS) formulation for rank methods of Sievers and Abebe (2004) is employed with the other parameter substituted by their corresponding estimates from an appropriate iteration; (3) the high efficiency and good robustness qualities of the proposed method are confirmed by simulation trials that were conducted in two-sample problem, several groups and general linear models; (4) the inlier issue that is a consequence of employing the log transformation is also investigated and shown to be well curtailed by the proposed method and (5) finally, the method is shown to outperform other methods when applied to real life data from a Psychiatric Clinical Trial containing two treatments, one covariate, and one confounding variable. Thus, for samples larger than 20, the proposed method is highly robust and efficient under non-normal distributions.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this some new estimation methods and testing procedures for the linear regression models with heteroscedastic disturbances. A Minimum Norm Quadratic Unbiased (MINQU) estimation method has been developed for estimating the unknown heteroscedastic error variances by using the weighted studentized residuals. A multiplicative heteroscedastic linear regression model has been specified and a method of estimating the parameters of linear regression model along with the in the heteroscedastic error variance has been given by using the predicted residuals. Three types of modified estimators have been proposed for the parameter of multiplicative heteroscedastic error variance by using internally studentized residuals.an adaptive method of estimation has been suggested to estimate the heteroscedastic error variances based on Bartlett's test by using the internally studentized residuals. Besides these new estimation methods, the testing procedures for testing the equality between the regression coefficients in two/sets of linear regression models under heteroscedasticity have been suggested by using the studentized residuals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly accessible and innovative text with supporting web site uses Excel (R) to teach the core concepts of econometrics without advanced mathematics. It enables students to use Monte Carlo simulations in order to understand the data generating process and sampling distribution. Intelligent repetition of concrete examples effectively conveys the properties of the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator and the nature of heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation. Coverage includes omitted variables, binary response models, basic time series, and simultaneous equations. The authors teach students how to construct their own real-world data sets drawn from the internet, which they can analyze with Excel (R) or with other econometric software. The accompanying web site with text support can be found at www.wabash.edu/econometrics.
Download or read book Estimating Heteroscedastic Variances in Linear Models A Simpler Approach written by David B. Duncan and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors describe an estimator of heteroscedastic variances in the Gauss-Markov linear model 7 = X beta + epsilon where E(epsilon) = O and Var (epsilon) = diag((Sigma sub 1, Sup 2), ..., (Sigma sub n, sup 2)) with (Sigma sub i, sup 2) and beta unknown. It may be thought of as an approximation to the MINQUE method, but it results in both computational economy and decreased mean square error. Properties of this approximately unbiased estimator are stated and it is compared with other estimators. Extensions to more general models are discussed. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider a heteroscedastic linear model in which the variances are a parametric function of the mean responses and a parameter theta. We propose robust estimates for the regression parameter beta and show that, as long as a reasonable starting estimate of theta is available, our estimates of beta are asymptotically equivalent to the natural estimate obtained with known variances. A particular method for estimating theta is proposed and shown by Monte-Carlo to work quite well, especially in power and exponential models for the variances. We also briefly discuss a 'feedback' estimate of beta. (Author).
