Bayesian paradigm for analysing count data in longitudina studies using Poisson-generalized log-gamma model
In analyzing longitudinal data with counted responses, normal distribution is usually used for distribution of the random efffects. However, in some applications random effects may not be normally distributed. Misspecification of this distribution may cause reduction of efficiency of estimators. In this paper, a generalized log-gamma distribution is used for the random effects which includes th...
متن کاملA Bayesian Nominal Regression Model with Random Effects for Analysing Tehran Labor Force Survey Data
Large survey data are often accompanied by sampling weights that reflect the inequality probabilities for selecting samples in complex sampling. Sampling weights act as an expansion factor that, by scaling the subjects, turns the sample into a representative of the community. The quasi-maximum likelihood method is one of the approaches for considering sampling weights in the frequentist framewo...
متن کاملQuantile regression for overdispersed count data: a hierarchical method
Generalized Poisson regression is commonly applied to overdispersed count data, and focused on modelling the conditional mean of the response. However, conditional mean regression models may be sensitive to response outliers and provide no information on other conditional distribution features of the response. We consider instead a hierarchical approach to quantile regression of overdispersed c...
متن کاملDirichlet negative multinomial regression for overdispersed correlated count data
A generic random effects formulation for the Dirichlet negative multinomial distribution is developed together with a convenient regression parameterization. A simulation study indicates that, even when somewhat misspecified, regression models based on the Dirichlet negative multinomial distribution have smaller median absolute error than generalized estimating equations, with a particularly pr...
متن کاملBayesian generalized additive models for location, scale and shape for zero-inflated and overdispersed count data
Frequent problems in applied research that prevent the application of the classical Poisson log-linear model for analyzing count data include overdispersion, an excess of zeros compared to the Poisson distribution, correlated responses, as well as complex predictor structures comprising nonlinear effects of continuous covariates, interactions or spatial effects. We propose a general class of Ba...
