The availability of large microarray data has brought along many challenges for biological data mining. Following Cheng and Church [4], many different biclustering methods have been widely used to find appropriate subsets of experimental conditions. Still no paper directly optimizes or bounds the Mean Squared Residue (MSR) originally suggested by Cheng and Church. Their algorithm, for a given e...

‎Abstract: In this paper, a new mixture modelling using the normal mean-variance mixture of Lindley (NMVL) distribution has been considered. The proposed model is heavy-tailed and multimodal and can be used in dealing with asymmetric data in various theoretic and applied problems. We present a feasible computationally analytical EM algorithm for computing the maximum likelihood estimates. T...

This criterion should be contrasted with the RSS encountered earlier in the course. The RSS pertains to model estimation, since we are already assuming a given model for some particular data set; and it suffices to estimate the specific values of our estimators for the unknown parameters. The MSE combines the previous two criteria, on the unbiasedness and the variance of β̂, through the followin...

Nested-error regression models are widely used for analyzing clustered data. For example, they are often applied to two-stage sample surveys, and in biology and econometrics. Prediction is usually the main goal of such analyses, and mean-squared prediction error is the main way in which prediction performance is measured. In this paper we suggest a new approach to estimating mean-squared predic...
