Testing multiple variance components in linear mixed-effects models.
Testing zero variance components is one of the most challenging problems in the context of linear mixed-effects (LME) models. The usual asymptotic chi-square distribution of the likelihood ratio and score statistics under this null hypothesis is incorrect because the null is on the boundary of the parameter space. During the last two decades many tests have been proposed to overcome this diffic...
متن کاملConsistent Variance Curve Models
We introduce equity forward variance term-structure models and derive the respective HJM-type arbitrage conditions. We then discuss finitedimensional Markovian representations of the infinite-dimensional fixed time-to-maturity forward variance swap curve and analyse examples of such variance curve functionals. The results are then applied to show that the speed of mean-reversion in standard sto...
متن کاملTesting linear forms of variance components bygeneralized xed { level
This report extends the technique of testing single variance components with generalized xed{level tests | in situations when nuisance parameters make exact testing impossible | to the more general way of testing hypotheses on linear forms of variance components. An extension of the deenition of a generalized test variable leads to a generalized xed{level test for arbitrary linear hypotheses on...
متن کاملU-tests for variance components in linear mixed models
We propose U -statistics-based tests for null variance components in linear mixed models. We obtain their asymptotic distribution (for increasing number of units) under mild regularity conditions that include only the existence of the second moment for the distribution of the random effects and of the fourth moment for the distribution of the conditional errors. We also derive their nonnull dis...
متن کاملVariance Component Testing in Generalized Linear Mixed Models
Generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) are used in situations where a number of characteristics (covariates) affect a nonnormal response variable and the responses are correlated. For example, in a number of biological applications, the responses are correlated due to common genetic or environmental factors. In many applications, the magnitude of the variance components corresponding to one or ...
