Smoothed jackknife empirical likelihood method for ROC curve
In this paper we propose a smoothed jackknife empirical likelihood method to construct confidence intervals for the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. By applying the standard empirical likelihood method for a mean to the jackknife sample, the empirical likelihood ratio statistic can be calculated by simply solving a single equation. Therefore, this procedure is easy to implement. W...
متن کاملSemi-Empirical Likelihood Confidence Intervals for the ROC Curve with Missing Data
The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is one of the most commonly used methods to compare the diagnostic performances of two or more laboratory or diagnostic tests. In this thesis, we propose semi-empirical likelihood based confidence intervals for ROC curves of two populations, where one population is parametric while the other one is non-parametric and both populations have missin...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood inference for the area under the ROC curve.
For a continuous-scale diagnostic test, the most commonly used summary index of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) is the area under the curve (AUC) that measures the accuracy of the diagnostic test. In this article, we propose an empirical likelihood (EL) approach for the inference on the AUC. First we define an EL ratio for the AUC and show that its limiting distribution is a s...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood inference in linear regression with nonignorable missing response
Parameter estimation for nonignorable nonresponse data is a challenging issue as the missing mechanism is unverified in practice and the parameters of response probabilities need to be estimated. This article aims at applying the empirical likelihood to construct the confidence intervals for the parameters of interest in linear regression models with nonignorable missing response data and the n...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood for Estimating Equations with Nonignorably Missing Data.
We develop an empirical likelihood (EL) inference on parameters in generalized estimating equations with nonignorably missing response data. We consider an exponential tilting model for the nonignorably missing mechanism, and propose modified estimating equations by imputing missing data through a kernel regression method. We establish some asymptotic properties of the EL estimators of the unkn...
