Estimation and Inference for Very Large Linear Mixed Effects Models
Linear mixed models with large imbalanced crossed random effects structures pose severe computational problems for maximum likelihood estimation and for Bayesian analysis. The costs can grow as fast as N3/2 when there are N observations. Such problems arise in any setting where the underlying factors satisfy a many to many relationship (instead of a nested one) and in electronic commerce applic...
متن کاملInference and estimation in probabilistic time series models
The term ‘time series’ refers to data that can be represented as a sequence. This includes for example financial data in which the sequence index indicates time, and genetic data (e.g. ACATGC . . .) in which the sequence index has no temporal meaning. In this tutorial we give an overview of discrete-time probabilistic models, which are the subject of most chapters in this book, with continuous-...
متن کاملNonparametric Latent Tree Graphical Models: Inference, Estimation, and Structure Learning
Tree structured graphical models are powerful at expressing long range or hierarchical dependency among many variables, and have been widely applied in different areas of computer science and statistics. However, existing methods for parameter estimation, inference, and structure learning mainly rely on the Gaussian or discrete assumptions, which are restrictive under many applications. In this...
متن کاملDoubly robust estimation in missing data and causal inference models.
The goal of this article is to construct doubly robust (DR) estimators in ignorable missing data and causal inference models. In a missing data model, an estimator is DR if it remains consistent when either (but not necessarily both) a model for the missingness mechanism or a model for the distribution of the complete data is correctly specified. Because with observational data one can never be...
متن کاملEstimation and Inference in Unstable Nonlinear Least Squares Models
In this paper, we extend Bai and Perron’s (1998, Econometrica, pp. 47-78) method for detecting multiple breaks to nonlinear models. To that end, we consider an unstable univariate nonlinear least squares (NLS) model with a limited number of parameter shifts occurring at unknown dates. In our framework, the break-dates are simultaneously estimated with the parameters via minimization of the resi...
