Parameter Estimation in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models with Skew Gaussian Random Effects using Laplace Approximation
Spatial generalized linear mixed models are used commonly for modelling non-Gaussian discrete spatial responses. We present an algorithm for parameter estimation of the models using Laplace approximation of likelihood function. In these models, the spatial correlation structure of data is carried out by random effects or latent variables. In most spatial analysis, it is assumed that rando...
متن کاملEfficient Mean Estimation in Lognormal Linear Models
Lognormal linear models are widely used in applications, and many times it is of interest to predict the response variable at the original scale for a new set of covariate values. In this paper we consider the problem of efficient estimation of the conditional mean of the response variable at the original scale for lognormal linear models. Several existing estimators are reviewed, including the...
متن کاملComparison of Different Estimation Methods for Linear Mixed Models and Generalized Linear Mixed Models
Linear mixed models (LMM) and generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) are widely used in regression analyses. With the variance structure dependent on the random effects with their variance components, the parameter estimation of LMMs is more complicated than linear models (LM). Generally, we use maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) together with some procedure such as derivative free optimizatio...
متن کاملRobust Estimation in Linear Regression with Molticollinearity and Sparse Models
One of the factors affecting the statistical analysis of the data is the presence of outliers. The methods which are not affected by the outliers are called robust methods. Robust regression methods are robust estimation methods of regression model parameters in the presence of outliers. Besides outliers, the linear dependency of regressor variables, which is called multicollinearity...
متن کاملRobust MM-Estimation and Inference in Mixed Linear Models
Mixed linear models are used to analyse data in many settings. These models generally rely on the normality assumption and are often fitted by means of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) or the restricted maximum likelihood estimator (REML). However, the sensitivity of these estimation techniques and related tests to this underlying assumption has been identified as a weakness that can even...
