Changepoint Analysis by Modified Empirical Likelihood Method in Two-phase Linear Regression Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
A changepoint in statistical applications refers to an observational time point at which the structure pattern changes during a somewhat long-term experimentation process. In many cases, the change point time and cause are documented and it is reasonably straightforward to statistically adjust (homogenize) the series for the effects of the changepoint. Sadly many changepoint times are undocumented and the changepoint times themselves are the main purpose of study. In this article, the changepoint analysis in two-phrase linear regression models is developed and discussed. Following Liu and Qian (2010)'s idea in the segmented linear regression models, the modified empirical likelihood ratio statistic is proposed to test if there exists a changepoint during the long-term experiment and observation. The modified empirical likelihood ratio statistic is computation-friendly and its -value can be easily approximated based on the large sample properties. The procedure is applied to the Old Faithful geyser eruption data in October 1980.

Modified signed log-likelihood test for the coefficient of variation of an inverse Gaussian population
In this paper, we consider the problem of two sided hypothesis testing for the parameter of coefficient of variation of an inverse Gaussian population. An approach used here is the modified signed log-likelihood ratio (MSLR) method which is the modification of traditional signed log-likelihood ratio test. Previous works show that this proposed method has third-order accuracy whereas the traditi...
متن کاملEstimating the Time of a Step Change in Gamma Regression Profiles Using MLE Approach
Sometimes the quality of a process or product is described by a functional relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables referred to as profile. In most researches in this area the response variable is assumed to be normally distributed; however, occasionally in certain applications, the normality assumption is violated. In these cases the Generalized Linear Mod...

The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...
متن کاملJackknife Empirical Likelihood for the Variance in the Linear Regression Model
The variance of a random variable is σ. It is the measure of spread from the center. Therefore, how to accurately estimate variance (σ) has always been an important topic in recent years. In this paper, we consider a linear regression model which is the most popular model in practice. We use jackknife empirical likelihood (JEL) method to obtain the interval estimate of σ in the regression model...
متن کاملComputationally Efficient Gaussian Process Changepoint Detection and Regression
Most existing GP regression algorithms assume a single generative model, leading to poor performance when data are nonstationary, i.e. generated from multiple switching processes. Existing methods for GP regression over non-stationary data include clustering and changepoint detection algorithms. However, these methods require significant computation, do not come with provable guarantees on corr...
