Book Beyond Multiple Linear Regression

Download or read book Beyond Multiple Linear Regression written by Paul Roback and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Multiple Linear Regression: Applied Generalized Linear Models and Multilevel Models in R is designed for undergraduate students who have successfully completed a multiple linear regression course, helping them develop an expanded modeling toolkit that includes non-normal responses and correlated structure. Even though there is no mathematical prerequisite, the authors still introduce fairly sophisticated topics such as likelihood theory, zero-inflated Poisson, and parametric bootstrapping in an intuitive and applied manner. The case studies and exercises feature real data and real research questions; thus, most of the data in the textbook comes from collaborative research conducted by the authors and their students, or from student projects. Every chapter features a variety of conceptual exercises, guided exercises, and open-ended exercises using real data. After working through this material, students will develop an expanded toolkit and a greater appreciation for the wider world of data and statistical modeling. A solutions manual for all exercises is available to qualified instructors at the book’s website at www.routledge.com, and data sets and Rmd files for all case studies and exercises are available at the authors’ GitHub repo (https://github.com/proback/BeyondMLR)

Download or read book Statistics written by Michael J. Crawley and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-05-06 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer software is an essential tool for many statistical modelling and data analysis techniques, aiding in the implementation of large data sets in order to obtain useful results. R is one of the most powerful and flexible statistical software packages available, and enables the user to apply a wide variety of statistical methods ranging from simple regression to generalized linear modelling. Statistics: An Introduction using R is a clear and concise introductory textbook to statistical analysis using this powerful and free software, and follows on from the success of the author's previous best-selling title Statistical Computing. * Features step-by-step instructions that assume no mathematics, statistics or programming background, helping the non-statistician to fully understand the methodology. * Uses a series of realistic examples, developing step-wise from the simplest cases, with the emphasis on checking the assumptions (e.g. constancy of variance and normality of errors) and the adequacy of the model chosen to fit the data. * The emphasis throughout is on estimation of effect sizes and confidence intervals, rather than on hypothesis testing. * Covers the full range of statistical techniques likely to be need to analyse the data from research projects, including elementary material like t-tests and chi-squared tests, intermediate methods like regression and analysis of variance, and more advanced techniques like generalized linear modelling. * Includes numerous worked examples and exercises within each chapter. * Accompanied by a website featuring worked examples, data sets, exercises and solutions: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/bio/research/crawley/statistics Statistics: An Introduction using R is the first text to offer such a concise introduction to a broad array of statistical methods, at a level that is elementary enough to appeal to a broad range of disciplines. It is primarily aimed at undergraduate students in medicine, engineering, economics and biology - but will also appeal to postgraduates who have not previously covered this area, or wish to switch to using R.

Book Semiparametric and Nonparametric Methods for the Analysis of Panel Count Data

Download or read book Semiparametric and Nonparametric Methods for the Analysis of Panel Count Data written by Yang Li and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Panel count data are one type of event-history data concerning recurrent events. Ideally for an event-history study, subjects should be monitored continuously, so for the events that may happen recurrently over time, the exact time of each event occurrence is recordable. Data obtained in such cases are commonly referred to as recurrent event data (Cook and Lawless, 2007). In reality, however, subjects may only be observed at their clinical visits or discrete times. As a result, instead of observing the exact event times, one only knows the numbers of events that happen between the observation times. Such interval-censored recurrent event data are usually referred to as panel count data (Kalbfleisch and Lawless, 1985; Sun and Kalbfleisch, 1995; Thall and Lachin, 1988). The primary interest with panel count data is about the underlying recurrent event process. Meanwhile for the analysis, one needs to consider the times when the observations occur, which can be regarded as realizations of an observation process with follow-up times. This dissertation consists of four parts. In the first part, we will consider regression analysis of panel count data with dependent observation processes while the follow-up times may be subject to a terminal event like death. A semiparametric transformation model is presented for the mean function of the underlying recurrent event process among survivals. To estimate the regression parameters, an estimating equation approach is proposed and the inverse survival probability weighting technique is used. In addition, the asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimate is derived and a model checking procedure is presented. Simulation studies are conducted to evaluate finite sample properties of the proposed approach, and the approach is applied to a bladder cancer study. The second part will focus on regression analysis of multivariate panel count data in the presence of a terminal event. Both the observation process and the terminal event may be correlated with recurrent event processes of interest. We present a class of semiparametric additive models for the mean functions of the underlying recurrent event processes. For the estimation of the regression parameters, an estimating equation based inference procedure is developed. The asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators are established and a model-checking procedure is derived for practical situations. The third part will discuss nonparametric comparison based on panel count data. Most approaches that have been developed in the literature require an equal observation process for all subjects. However, such an assumption may not hold in reality. A new class of test procedures are proposed that allow unequal observation processes for the subjects from different treatment groups, and both univariate and multivariate panel count data are considered. The asymptotic normality of the proposed test statistics is established and a simulation study is conducted. The approach is applied to a skin cancer study. Finally, the last part will discuss some directions for future research.
