Empirical likelihood ratio confidence interval estimation of best linear combinations of biomarkers
A novel smoothed empirical likelihood (EL) approach that incorporates kernel estimation of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) to construct nonparametric confidence intervals of AUC based on the best linear combination (BLC) of biomarkers is proposed. The method has several advantages including the feasibility to use gradient-based techniques for fast computation of...
متن کاملLikelihood ratio confidence bands in nonparametric regression with censored data
Let (X,Y ) be a random vector, where Y denotes the variable of interest possibly subject to random right censoring, and X is a covariate. We construct confidence intervals and bands for the conditional survival and quantile function of Y given X using a nonparametric likelihood ratio approach. This approach was introduced by Thomas and Grunkemeier (1975), who estimated confidence intervals of s...
متن کاملBinomial Distribution Sample Confidence Interval Estimation for Positive and Negative Likelihood Ratio Medical Key Parameters
Likelihood Ratio medical key parameters calculated on categorical results from diagnostic tests are usually express accompanied with their confidence intervals, computed using the normal distribution approximation of binomial distribution. The approximation creates known anomalies,especially for limit cases. In order to improve the quality of estimation, four new methods (called here RPAC, RPAC...
متن کاملConfidence Interval Estimation in System Dynamics Models: Bootstrapping vs. Likelihood Ratio Method
In this paper we discuss confidence interval estimation for system dynamics models. Confidence interval estimation is important because without confidence intervals, we cannot determine whether an estimated parameter value is significantly different from 0 or any other value, and therefore we cannot determine how much confidence to place in the estimate. We compare two methods for confidence in...
متن کاملSmoothed weighted empirical likelihood ratio confidence intervals for quantiles
Thus far, likelihood-based interval estimates for quantiles have not been studied in the literature on interval censored case 2 data and partly interval censored data, and, in this context, the use of smoothing has not been considered for any type of censored data. This article constructs smoothed weighted empirical likelihood ratio confidence intervals (WELRCI) for quantiles in a unified frame...
