Computationally Efficient Composite Likelihood Statistics for Demographic Inference.
Many population genetics tools employ composite likelihoods, because fully modeling genomic linkage is challenging. But traditional approaches to estimating parameter uncertainties and performing model selection require full likelihoods, so these tools have relied on computationally expensive maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) on bootstrapped data. Here, we demonstrate that statistical theory ...
متن کاملAdjusting Composite Likelihood Ratio Statistics
Composite likelihood may be useful for approximating likelihood based inference when the full likelihood is too complex to deal with. Stemming from a misspecified model, inference based on composite likelihood requires suitable corrections. Here we focus on the composite likelihood ratio statistic for a multidimensional parameter of interest, and we propose a parameterization invariant adjustme...
متن کاملComputationally Efficient Gaussian Maximum Likelihood Methods for Vector ARFIMA Models
In this paper, we discuss two distinct multivariate time series models that extend the univariate ARFIMA model. We describe algorithms for computing the covariances of each model, for computing the quadratic form and approximating the determinant for maximum likelihood estimation, and for simulating from each model. We compare the speed and accuracy of each algorithm to existing methods and mea...
متن کاملComposite likelihood inference by nonparametric saddlepoint tests
The class of composite likelihood functions provides a flexible and powerful toolkit to carry out approximate inference for complex statistical models when the full likelihood is either impossible to specify or unfeasible to compute. However, the strenght of the composite likelihood approach is dimmed when considering hypothesis testing about a multidimensional parameter because the finite samp...
متن کاملComputationally Efficient Tiered Inference for Multiple Fault Diagnosis
Diagnosing multiple-component systems is difficult and computationally expensive, as the number of fault hypotheses grows exponentially with the number of components in the system. This paper describes an efficient computational framework for statistical diagnosis featuring two main ideas: (1) structuring fault hypotheses into tiers, starting from low cardinality fault assumptions (e.g., single...
