Composite likelihood and two-stage estimation in family studies.
In this paper register based family studies provide the motivation for linking a two-stage estimation procedure in copula models for multivariate failure time data with a composite likelihood approach. The asymptotic properties of the estimators in both parametric and semi-parametric models are derived, combining the approaches of Parner (2001) and Andersen (2003). The method is mainly studied ...
متن کاملSemiparametric Maximum Likelihood Inference for Truncated or Biased-sampling Data
Sample selection bias has long been recognized in many fields including clinical trials, epidemiology studies, genome-wide association studies, and wildlife management. This paper investigates the maximum likelihood estimation for censored survival data with selection bias under the Cox regression models where the selection process is modeled parametrically. A novel expectation-maximization alg...
متن کاملAn Em Composite Likelihood Approach for Multistage Sampling of Family Data
Multistage sampling of family data is a common design in the field of genetic epidemiology, but appropriate methodologies for analyzing data collected under this design are still lacking. We propose here a statistical approach based on the composite likelihood framework. The composite likelihood is a weighted product of individual likelihoods corresponding to the sampling strata, where the weig...
متن کاملSemi-parametric Estimates under Biased Sampling
In observational studies subjects may self select, thereby creating a biased sample. Such problems arise frequently, for example, in astronomical, biomedical, animal, and oil studies, survey sampling and econometrics. For a typical subject, let Y denote the value of interest and suppose that Y has an unknown density function f . Further, let w(y) denote the probability that the subject includes...
متن کاملEstimating a treatment effect under biased sampling.
Methods are presented for the estimation of a treatment effect based on before- and after-treatment values, where for ethical reasons all and only those patients are treated whose before-treatment values exceed a given constant.
