Semiparametric Mean–Covariance Regression Analysis for Longitudinal Data
Efficient estimation of the regression coefficients in longitudinal data analysis requires a correct specification of the covariance structure. Existing approaches usually focus on modeling the mean with specification of certain covariance structures, which may lead to inefficient or biased estimators of parameters in the mean if misspecification occurs. In this article, we propose a data-drive...
متن کاملA New Nonparametric Regression for Longitudinal Data
In many area of medical research, a relation analysis between one response variable and some explanatory variables is desirable. Regression is the most common tool in this situation. If we have some assumptions for such normality for response variable, we could use it. In this paper we propose a nonparametric regression that does not have normality assumption for response variable and we focus ...
متن کاملSemiparametric regression analysis of longitudinal data with informative drop-outs.
Informative drop-out arises in longitudinal studies when the subject's follow-up time depends on the unobserved values of the response variable. We specify a semiparametric linear regression model for the repeatedly measured response variable and an accelerated failure time model for the time to informative drop-out. The error terms from the two models are assumed to have a common, but complete...
متن کاملEfficient semiparametric regression for longitudinal data with nonparametric covariance estimation
For longitudinal data, when the within-subject covariance is misspecified, the semiparametric regression estimator may be inefficient. We propose a method that combines the efficient semiparametric estimator with nonparametric covariance estimation, and is robust against misspecification of covariance models. We show that kernel covariance estimation provides uniformly consistent estimators for...
