Book Near Uniformly Minimum Variance Quadratic Unbiased Estimation of Variance Components in Mixed Effects Model

Download or read book Near Uniformly Minimum Variance Quadratic Unbiased Estimation of Variance Components in Mixed Effects Model written by Li Guo and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several methods are available in literature for estimating the variance components in mixed effects models. In this thesis we consider the general mixed effects model without making any distributional assumptions. The quadratic unbiased estimators are considered for estimating the variance components. The uniformly minimum variance quadratic unbiased estimation (UMVQUE) of variance components is investigated for the data obtained from both balanced and unbalanced designs. In spite of its attractive properties, the UMVQUE may not always be possible. When the UMVQUE is not possible, we propose two alternative methods for estimating the variance components. We first introduce a method of near uniformly minimum variance quadratic unbiased estimation (NUMVQUE) for an unbalanced incomplete block design. When the UMVQUE of variance components is not possible for a design with replicated blocks but it is possible with a single replication of blocks, we propose another method of average uniformly minimum variance quadratic unbiased estimation (AUMVQUE). The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and restricted maximum likelihood estimation (REMLE) are likelihood based procedures and therefore require the distributional assumptions to estimate the variance components. We present a simulation study to evaluate the performance of our proposed estimation methods and compare them with MLE and REMLE.

Book Analysis of Variance for Random Models

Download or read book Analysis of Variance for Random Models written by Hardeo Sahai and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-05-27 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysis of variance (ANOVA) models have become widely used tools and play a fundamental role in much of the application of statistics today. In particular, ANOVA models involving random effects have found widespread application to experimental design in a variety of fields requiring measurements of variance, including agriculture, biology, animal breeding, applied genetics, econometrics, quality control, medicine, engineering, and social sciences. This two-volume work is a comprehensive presentation of different methods and techniques for point estimation, interval estimation, and tests of hypotheses for linear models involving random effects. Both Bayesian and repeated sampling procedures are considered. Volume I examines models with balanced data (orthogonal models); Volume II studies models with unbalanced data (nonorthogonal models). Features and Topics: * Systematic treatment of the commonly employed crossed and nested classification models used in analysis of variance designs * Detailed and thorough discussion of certain random effects models not commonly found in texts at the introductory or intermediate level * Numerical examples to analyze data from a wide variety of disciplines * Many worked examples containing computer outputs from standard software packages such as SAS, SPSS, and BMDP for each numerical example * Extensive exercise sets at the end of each chapter * Numerous appendices with background reference concepts, terms, and results * Balanced coverage of theory, methods, and practical applications * Complete citations of important and related works at the end of each chapter, as well as an extensive general bibliography Accessible to readers with only a modest mathematical and statistical background, the work will appeal to a broad audience of students, researchers, and practitioners in the mathematical, life, social, and engineering sciences. It may be used as a textbook in upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses, or as a reference for readers interested in the use of random effects models for data analysis.

Book Mathematical Statistics

Download or read book Mathematical Statistics written by Dieter Rasch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores mathematical statistics in its entirety—from the fundamentals to modern methods This book introduces readers to point estimation, confidence intervals, and statistical tests. Based on the general theory of linear models, it provides an in-depth overview of the following: analysis of variance (ANOVA) for models with fixed, random, and mixed effects; regression analysis is also first presented for linear models with fixed, random, and mixed effects before being expanded to nonlinear models; statistical multi-decision problems like statistical selection procedures (Bechhofer and Gupta) and sequential tests; and design of experiments from a mathematical-statistical point of view. Most analysis methods have been supplemented by formulae for minimal sample sizes. The chapters also contain exercises with hints for solutions. Translated from the successful German text, Mathematical Statistics requires knowledge of probability theory (combinatorics, probability distributions, functions and sequences of random variables), which is typically taught in the earlier semesters of scientific and mathematical study courses. It teaches readers all about statistical analysis and covers the design of experiments. The book also describes optimal allocation in the chapters on regression analysis. Additionally, it features a chapter devoted solely to experimental designs. Classroom-tested with exercises included Practice-oriented (taken from day-to-day statistical work of the authors) Includes further studies including design of experiments and sample sizing Presents and uses IBM SPSS Statistics 24 for practical calculations of data Mathematical Statistics is a recommended text for advanced students and practitioners of math, probability, and statistics.

  • ISBN : 1119551544
  • Pages : 650 pages

Download or read book Applied Statistics written by Dieter Rasch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-08-14 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instructs readers on how to use methods of statistics and experimental design with R software Applied statistics covers both the theory and the application of modern statistical and mathematical modelling techniques to applied problems in industry, public services, commerce, and research. It proceeds from a strong theoretical background, but it is practically oriented to develop one's ability to tackle new and non-standard problems confidently. Taking a practical approach to applied statistics, this user-friendly guide teaches readers how to use methods of statistics and experimental design without going deep into the theory. Applied Statistics: Theory and Problem Solutions with R includes chapters that cover R package sampling procedures, analysis of variance, point estimation, and more. It follows on the heels of Rasch and Schott's Mathematical Statistics via that book's theoretical background—taking the lessons learned from there to another level with this book’s addition of instructions on how to employ the methods using R. But there are two important chapters not mentioned in the theoretical back ground as Generalised Linear Models and Spatial Statistics. Offers a practical over theoretical approach to the subject of applied statistics Provides a pre-experimental as well as post-experimental approach to applied statistics Features classroom tested material Applicable to a wide range of people working in experimental design and all empirical sciences Includes 300 different procedures with R and examples with R-programs for the analysis and for determining minimal experimental sizes Applied Statistics: Theory and Problem Solutions with R will appeal to experimenters, statisticians, mathematicians, and all scientists using statistical procedures in the natural sciences, medicine, and psychology amongst others.
