Non-Gaussian Berkson errors in bioassay.
The experimental design plays an important role in every experimental study. However, if errors in the settings of the studied factors cannot be avoided, i.e. Berkson errors occur, the estimates of the model parameters may be biased and the variability in the study increased. Correction methods for the effect of Berkson errors are compared. The emphasis is on the study of correlated Berkson err...
متن کاملRegressions with Berkson errors in covariates – A nonparametric approach
This paper establishes that so-called instrumental variables enable the identification and the estimation of a fully nonparametric regression model with Berkson-type measurement error in the regressors. An estimator is proposed and proven to be consistent. Its practical performance and feasibility are investigated via Monte Carlo simulations as well as through an epidemiological application inv...
متن کاملWavelet Block Thresholding for Non-Gaussian Errors
Wavelet thresholding generally assumes independent, identically distributed normal errors when estimating functions in a nonparametric regression setting. VisuShrink and SureShrink are just two of the many common thresholding methods based on this assumption. When the errors are not normally distributed, however, few methods have been proposed. In this paper, a distribution-free method for thre...
متن کاملNon - Gaussian numerical errors versus mass hierarchy
We probe the numerical errors made in renormalization group calculations by varying slightly the rescaling factor of the fields and rescaling back in order to get the same (if there were no round-off errors) zero momentum 2-point function (magnetic susceptibility). The actual calculations were performed with Dyson's hierarchical model and a simplified version of it. We compare the distributions...
متن کاملMinimum Distance Regression Model Checking with Berkson Measurement Errors
Lack-of-fit testing of a regression model with Berkson measurement error has not been discussed in the literature to date. To fill this void, we propose a class of tests based on minimized integrated square distances between a nonparametric regression function estimator and the parametric model being fitted. We prove asymptotic normality of these test statistics under the null hypothesis and th...
