Best prediction in linear models with mixed integer/real unknowns: theory and application
In this contribution, we extend the existing theory of minimummean squared error prediction (best prediction). This extention is motivated by the desire to be able to deal with models in which the parameter vectors have real-valued and/or integer-valued entries. New classes of predictors are introduced, based on the principle of equivariance. Equivariant prediction is developed for the real-par...
متن کاملLeast-squares prediction in linear models with integer unknowns
The prediction of spatially and/or temporal varying variates based on observations of these variates at some locations in space and/or instances in time, is an important topic in the various spatial and Earth sciences disciplines. This topic has been extensively studied, albeit under different names. The underlying model used is often of the trend-signal-noise type. Thismodel is quite general a...
متن کاملIncluding Mean-variance Relationships in Heteroskedastic Mixed Linear Models: Theory and Application
In mixed linear models, it is usually assumed that both residual and random effects have homogeneous components of variance. This paper presents models and corresponding techniques of estimation to relax this restrictive assumption. Models proposed include log link functions linearly relating variance components to explanatory variables that can be either discrete or continuous. Special emphasi...
متن کاملEmpirical best linear unbiased prediction in misspecified and improved panel data models with an application to gasoline demand
Misspecifications in econometric models can result in misestimated coefficients.An improved method for specifying econometric models is presented. The mean square error of an empirical best linear unbiased predictor of an individual drawing for the dependent variable of an improved model is derived. These ideas are illustrated using certain misspecified and improved models of the demand for gas...
متن کاملThe Application of Recursive Mixed Models for Estimating Genetic and Phenotypic Relationships between Calving Difficulty and Lactation Curve Traits in Iranian Holsteins: A Comparison with Standard Mixed Models
In the present study, records on 22872 first-parity Holsteins collected from 131 herds by the Animal Breeding and Improvement Center of Iran from 1995 to 2014 were considered to estimate genetic and phenotypic relationships between calving difficulty (CD) and the lactation curve traits, including initial milk yield (Ap), ascending (Bp) and descending (Cp) slope of the lactation curves, peak mil...
