Aspects of multivariate regression.

Philip J. Brown (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

Important features of multivariate linear regression are emphasised and a selection of prior distributions discussed. Priors used by Brown and Zidek (1978) lead them to a class of 'empirical' Bayes shrinkage estimates. The strength of shrinkage is examined with respect to an election forecasting example where observations obtain one after another.

Fitting a linear regression model by combining least squares and least absolute value estimation.

Sira Allende, Carlos Bouza, Isidro Romero (1995)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

Robust estimation of the multiple regression is modeled by using a convex combination of Least Squares and Least Absolute Value criterions. A Bicriterion Parametric algorithm is developed for computing the corresponding estimates. The proposed procedure should be specially useful when outliers are expected. Its behavior is analyzed using some examples.

An adaptive method of estimation and outlier detection in regression applicable for small to moderate sample sizes

Brenton R. Clarke (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In small to moderate sample sizes it is important to make use of all the data when there are no outliers, for reasons of efficiency. It is equally important to guard against the possibility that there may be single or multiple outliers which can have disastrous effects on normal theory least squares estimation and inference. The purpose of this paper is to describe and illustrate the use of an adaptive regression estimation algorithm which can be used to highlight outliers, either single...

Combining forecasts using the least trimmed squares

Jan Ámos Víšek (2001)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Employing recently derived asymptotic representation of the least trimmed squares estimator, the combinations of the forecasts with constraints are studied. Under assumption of unbiasedness of individual forecasts it is shown that the combination without intercept and with constraint imposed on the estimate of regression coefficients that they sum to one, is better than others. A numerical example is included to support theoretical conclusions.

Study of Bootstrap Estimates in Cox Regression Model with Delayed Entry

Silvie Bělašková, Eva Fišerová, Sylvia Krupičková (2013)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

In most clinical studies, patients are observed for extended time periods to evaluate influences in treatment such as drug treatment, approaches to surgery, etc. The primary event in these studies is death, relapse, adverse drug reaction, or development of a new disease. The follow-up time may range from few weeks to many years. Although these studies are long term, the number of observed events is small. Longitudinal studies have increased the importance of statistical methods for time-to...

Parameter estimation of S-distributions with alternating regression.

I-Chun Chou, Harald Martens, Eberhard O. Voit (2007)

SORT

Similarity:

We propose a novel 3-way alternating regression (3-AR) method as an effective strategy for the estimation of parameter values in S-distributions from frequency data. The 3-AR algorithm is very fast and performs well for error-free distributions and artificial noisy data obtained as random samples generated from S-distributions, as well as for traditional statistical distributions and for actual observation data. In rare cases where the algorithm does not immediately converge, its enormous...
