Variance Estimation from Complex Surveys Using Balanced Repeated Replication
For estimating the variance of nonlinear statistics like regression and correlation coefficients in stratified sampling designs, the Balanced Repeated Replication (BRR) method has received special attention, although other procedures like linearization (Taylor’s series expansion method), Jackknife repeated replications and the Bootstrap method are also available in the literature. BRR method in...
متن کاملReliable computing in estimation of variance components.
The purpose of this study is to present guidelines in selection of statistical and computing algorithms for variance components estimation when computing involves software packages. For this purpose two major methods are to be considered: residual maximal likelihood (REML) and Bayesian via Gibbs sampling. Expectation-Maximization (EM) REML is regarded as a very stable algorithm that is able to ...
متن کاملVariance Components Estimation in Generalized Orthogonal Models
The model y = ∑w j=1 Xjβj + e is generalized orthogonal if the orthogonal projection matrices on the range spaces of matrices Xj , j = 1, ..., w, commute. Unbiased estimators are obtained for the variance components of such models with cross-nesting.
متن کاملNonparametric variance function estimation with missing data
In this paper a fixed design regression model where the errors follow a strictly stationary process is considered. In this model the conditional mean function and the conditional variance function are unknown curves. Correlated errors when observations are missing in the response variable are assumed. Four nonparametric estimators of the conditional variance function based on local polynomial f...
متن کاملEstimation of Variance Components for Body Weight of Moghani Sheep Using B-Spline Random Regression Models
The aim of the present study was the estimation of (co) variance components and genetic parameters for body weight of Moghani sheep, using random regression models based on B-Splines functions. The data set included 9165 body weight records from 60 to 360 days of age from 2811 Moghani sheep, collected between 1994 to 2013 from Jafar-Abad Animal Research and Breeding Institute, Ardabil province,...
