Bayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملMultilevel mixed linear model analysis using iterative generalized least squares
In the social and other sciences, data are often structured hierarchically. Thus, for example, workers are grouped into workplaces, individuals into households, animals into litters, and subjects can be studied repeatedly, so giving rise to measurements grouped within individuals. It has long been recognized that the existence of such 'clustering' presents particular problems of model specifica...
متن کاملEstimation of Gompertz growth curve parameters by a non- linear mixed effects model
Abstract Simulated growth data with parameters appropriate for pigs were generated through a 2 step process. First, a linear mixed model was used to produce Gompertz growth curve coefficients for each pig. Then, 30 weekly weights were produced using the coefficients. Simulated pedigree had 3 generations without selection: 10 unrelated grandsires and 200 sires, each with 24 tested offspring. A m...
متن کاملRandom Effects in Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In this chapter, we examine the use of special forms of correlated random e ects in the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) setting. A special feature of our GLMM is the inclusion of random residual e ects to account for lack of t due to extra variation, outliers and other unexplained sources of variation. For random e ects, we consider, in particular, the correlation structure and improper p...
متن کاملA Generalized Non-Linear Composite Fading Model
This work is devoted to the formulation and derivation of the α−κ−μ/gamma distribution which corresponds to a physical fading model. The proposed distribution is composite and is constituted by the α−κ−μ non-linear generalized multipath model and the gamma shadowing model. It also constitute the basis for deriving the α−κ−μ Extreme/gamma model which accounts for non-linear severe multipath and ...
