Book New Expressions for Variance Component Estimators with Diagnostic Implications

Download or read book New Expressions for Variance Component Estimators with Diagnostic Implications written by Ronald R. Hocking and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closed form expressions are developed for the estimators of variance components in balanced, mixed, linear models. These expressions are generally averages of sample covariances which offer diagnostic information on the data, the model and the disgn. The cause of negative estimates may be revealed. An alternative formulation of the model is suggested. Examples illustrate the basic concepts.

This book was released on 1991 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closed form expressions are developed for the estimators of functions of the variance components in balanced, mixed, linear models. These estimators are averages of sample covariances (variances) which offer diagnostic information on the data and the model. The cause of negative estimates may be revealed. Examples illustrate the basic concepts.

Book Variance Component Estimation with Model based Diagnostics

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of estimating variance components in mixed linear models has no satisfactory solution for the unbalanced data case. Further, there has been little work on diagnostic methods for assessing the data and the model. In this article, we propose a new class of unbiased estimators. These estimators have simple closed form expressions allowing for small sample analysis and easy computations. The structure of the estimators reveals natural diagnostics for examining the data and the model assumptions. The source of negative estimates of variance components is revealed. Limited efficiency studies indicate that these estimators are comparable to existing estimators. The estimators are illustrated by two numerical examples that reveal the importance of the diagnostic analysis.

Book Estimation of Variance Components

Download or read book Estimation of Variance Components written by C. Radhakrishna Rao and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper describes a number of methods for estimating variance components in a general linear model. Explicit expressions are obtained for locally minimum variance unbiased estimators with and without the invariance condition. The principle of MINQE is described and a series of MIQE estimators satisfying one or more of the conditions - unbiasedness, invariance, nonnegative definiteness - are derived. Corresponding to each MINQE estimator, an iterated MINQE (IMINQE) is defined. It is shown that the ML (maximum Likelihood) estimator is IMINQE satisfying the invarianc e condition and the RML (restricted maximum likelihood estimator) is IMINQE satisfying both the invariance and unbiasedness conditions. Some comments are made on the numerical alorithms for computing MINQ, ML and RML estimators. (Author).
