Bayesian analysis of logistic regression with an unknown change point and covariate measurement error.

چکیده
We discuss Bayesian estimation of a logistic regression model with an unknown threshold limiting value (TLV). In these models it is assumed that there is no effect of a covariate on the response under a certain unknown TLV. The estimation of these models in a Bayesian context by Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods is considered with focus on the TLV. We extend the model by accounting for measurement error in the covariate. The Bayesian solution is compared with the likelihood solution proposed by Küchenhoff and Carroll using a data set concerning the relationship between dust concentration in the working place and the occurrence of chronic bronchitis.

Bayesian Quantile Regression with Adaptive Elastic Net Penalty for Longitudinal Data
Longitudinal studies include the important parts of epidemiological surveys, clinical trials and social studies. In longitudinal studies, measurement of the responses is conducted repeatedly through time. Often, the main goal is to characterize the change in responses over time and the factors that influence the change. Recently, to analyze this kind of data, quantile regression has been taken ...
متن کاملBayesian and Iterative Maximum Likelihood Estimation of the Coefficients in Logistic Regression Analysis with Linked Data
This paper considers logistic regression analysis with linked data. It is shown that, in logistic regression analysis with linked data, a finite mixture of Bernoulli distributions can be used for modeling the response variables. We proposed an iterative maximum likelihood estimator for the regression coefficients that takes the matching probabilities into account. Next, the Bayesian counterpart...
متن کاملTesting change-point in logistic models with covariate measurement error
We test the presence of a change of slope in a logistic regression model with covariate measured with errors. Under the null hypothesis of no change-point, estimation of a single intercept and slope can be carried out straightforwardly by various conditional score based methods. If the alternative hypothesis holds and indeed there exists a change-point, estimation becomes more challenging, neve...

Use of risk adjusted control charts for monitoring patients’ surgical outcomes is now popular.These charts are developed based on considering the patient’s pre-operation risks. Change point detection is a crucial problem in statistical process control (SPC).It helpsthe managers toanalyzeroot causes of out-of-control conditions more effectively. Since the control chart signals do not necessarily...
متن کاملA regularization corrected score method for nonlinear regression models with covariate error.
Many regression analyses involve explanatory variables that are measured with error, and failing to account for this error is well known to lead to biased point and interval estimates of the regression coefficients. We present here a new general method for adjusting for covariate error. Our method consists of an approximate version of the Stefanski-Nakamura corrected score approach, using the m...
