Factors Affecting Hospital Length of Stay Using Mixed Poisson Regression Models
Background and purpose: Modeling of Hospital Length of Stay (LOS) is of great importance in healthcare systems, but there is paucity of information on this issue in Iran. The aim of this study was to identify the optimal model among different mixed poisson distributions in modeling the LOS and effective factors. Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, we studied 1256 records, inc...
متن کاملMixture Modeling for Marked Poisson Processes
We propose a general modeling framework for marked Poisson processes observed over time or space. The modeling approach exploits the connection of the nonhomogeneous Poisson process intensity with a density function. Nonparametric Dirichlet process mixtures for this density, combined with nonparametric or semiparametric modeling for the mark distribution, yield flexible prior models for the mar...
متن کاملEstimating linear functionals in Poisson mixture models
This paper concerns the problem of estimating linear functionals of the mixing distribution from Poisson mixture observations. In particular, linear functionals for which parametric rate of convergence cannot be achieved are studied. It appears that Gaussian functionals are rather easy to estimate. Estimation of the distibution functions is then considered by approximating this functional by Ga...
متن کاملParameter 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 کاملClustering high-throughput sequencing data with Poisson mixture models
In recent years gene expression studies have increasingly made use of next generation sequencing technology. In turn, research concerning the appropriate statistical methods for the analysis of digital gene expression has flourished, primarily in the context of normalization and differential analysis. In this work, we focus on the question of clustering digital gene expression profiles as a mea...
