This book was released on 2007-01-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes current knowledge regarding the theory of estimation for semiparametric models with missing data, in an organized and comprehensive manner. It starts with the study of semiparametric methods when there are no missing data. The description of the theory of estimation for semiparametric models is both rigorous and intuitive, relying on geometric ideas to reinforce the intuition and understanding of the theory. These methods are then applied to problems with missing, censored, and coarsened data with the goal of deriving estimators that are as robust and efficient as possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The least squares estimator is probably the most frequently used estimation method in regression analysis. Unfortunately, it is also quite sensitive to data contamination and model misspecification. Although there are several robust estimators designed for parametric regression models that can be used in place of least squares, these robust estimators cannot be easily applied to models containing binary and categorical explanatory variables. Therefore, I design a robust estimator that can be used for any linear regression model no matter what kind of explanatory variables the model contains. Additionally, I propose an adaptive procedure that maximizes the efficiency of the proposed estimator for a given data set while preserving its robustness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents selections of Peter J. Bickel’s major papers, along with comments on their novelty and impact on the subsequent development of statistics as a discipline. Each of the eight parts concerns a particular area of research and provides new commentary by experts in the area. The parts range from Rank-Based Nonparametrics to Function Estimation and Bootstrap Resampling. Peter’s amazing career encompasses the majority of statistical developments in the last half-century or about about half of the entire history of the systematic development of statistics. This volume shares insights on these exciting statistical developments with future generations of statisticians. The compilation of supporting material about Peter’s life and work help readers understand the environment under which his research was conducted. The material will also inspire readers in their own research-based pursuits. This volume includes new photos of Peter Bickel, his biography, publication list, and a list of his students. These give the reader a more complete picture of Peter Bickel as a teacher, a friend, a colleague, and a family man.

Download or read book Statistical Analysis of Missing Not at Random Problems with a Nonparametric Regression Model and Semiparametric Missingness Mechanism written by Samidha Sudhakar Shetty and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Missing data is common in data sets in every field of science. In the past few decades, there has been interest in understanding the underlying pattern of missingness, formally known as the missingness mechanism. There are three types of missingness mechanisms: Missing Completely at Random (MCAR), Missing at Random (MAR) and Missing Not at Random (MNAR). These can also be classified into two main categories: Ignorable (MCAR and MAR) and Nonignorable (MNAR). Most likelihood or imputation-based methods developed assume the ignorable condition, which is the more well studied condition. We discuss the nonignorable condition which is less well studied and also the hardest to deal with. This dissertation consists of three chapters that address the issue of estimation under the nonignorable missing data setting. In the first chapter, we propose a robust estimator of a parameter or a summary quantity of the model parameters in the context where outcome is subject to nonignorable missingness. These estimators are robust to misspecification of the dependence on covariates. The robustness of the estimators are nonstandard and are established rigorously through theoretical derivations, and are supported by simulations and a data application. In the second chapter, we attempt the efficient estimation of a function of the response under nonignorable missingness. We briefly discuss efficiency and robustness of estimators under the ignorable missingness assumption which is well established. However, efficiency under the nonignorable setting requires more investigation. We derive the efficient score for a function of the response but it turns out to be very complex and infeasible. Therefore, we recommend trading efficiency in favor of feasibility and using an inefficient but consistent estimator. In the final chapter, we propose an efficient estimator for the parameter involved in the missingness propensity. We first estimate the dependence of the missingness on the covariates. We incorporate the above estimator to construct an efficient estimator for the parameter of interest. We study the theoretical properties of this estimator and also put forward an alternative estimator for the mean of the response.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breakthroughs such as high-throughput sequencing are generating flourishing high-dimensional data that provoke challenges in both statistical analyses and interpretations. Since directly modeling such data often suffers from multiple testing and low power, an emerging alternative is to first reduce the dimension at the outset, by comparing two subjects' genome sequences using dissimilarity metrics, yielding "between-subject attributes." In the first half of this talk, I will extend the classical generalized linear models (GLM) to establish a new regression paradigm for between-subject attributes, using a class of semiparametric functional response models (FRM). Despite its growing applications, the efficiency of estimators for the FRM has not yet been carefully studied. This is of fundamental importance for semiparametric models due to the efficiency loss at the price of minimum model assumptions. For the next half of the talk, we leverage the Hilbert-Space-based semiparametric efficiency theory to show that estimators from a class of U-statistics-based generalized estimating equation (UGEE) achieve the semiparametric efficiency bound. Thus, like GEE for semiparametric GLM, UGEE estimators also harmonize efficiency and robustness, propelling growing applications in biomedical, psychosocial, and related research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, we consider nonparametric and semiparametric regression for both independent and longitudinal data with missing at random (MAR). The thesis consists of three chapters. In chapter 1, we focus on nonparametric regression of a scalar outcome on a covariate when the outcome is MAR. We show that the usual nonparametric kernel regression estimation based only on complete cases is generally inconsistent. We propose inverse probability weighted (IPW) kernel estimating equations (KEEs) and a class of augmented IPW (AIPW) KEEs. Both approaches do not require specification of a parametric model for the error distribution. We show that the IPW kernel estimator is consistent when the probability that a sampling unit is observed, i.e., the selection probability, is known by design or is estimated using a correctly specified model. We further show that the AIPW kernel estimator is double-robust in the sense that it is consistent if either the model for the selection probability or the model for the conditional mean of the outcome given covariates and auxiliary variables is correctly specified, not necessarily both. We argue that adequate augmentation terms in the AIPW KEEs help increase the efficiency of the estimator. We study the asymptotic properties of the proposed IPW and AIPW kernel estimators, perform simulations to evaluate their finite sample performance, and apply to the analysis of the AIDS Costs and Services Utilization Survey data.
