On the Estimation of Relative Risks via Log Binomial Regression
Given the well known convergence difficulties in fitting log binomial regression with standard GLM software, we implement a direct solution via constrained optimization which avoids the circumventions found in the literature. The use of a log binomial model is motivated by our interest in directly estimating relative risks adjusted for confounders. A Bayesian log binomial regression model is al...
متن کاملRelative Importance for Linear Regression in R: The Package relaimpo
Relative importance is a topic that has seen a lot of interest in recent years, particularly in applied work. The R package relaimpo implements six different metrics for assessing relative importance of regressors in the linear model, two of which are recommended averaging over orderings of regressors and a newly proposed metric (Feldman 2005) called pmvd. Apart from delivering the metrics them...

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولSpatial Varying Coefficient Regression Model For Relative Risk Factors of Esophageal Cancer Patients
In conventional methods for spatial survival data modeling, it is often assumed that the coefficients of explanatory variables in different regions have a constant effect on survival time. Usually, the spatial correlation of data through a random effect is also included in the model. But in many practical issues, the factors affecting survival time do not have the same effects in different regi...
متن کاملMonte Carlo error in the Bayesian estimation of risk ratios using log-binomial regression models: an efficient MCMC method
In cohort studies binary outcomes are very often analyzed by logistic regression. However, it is well-known that when the goal is to estimate a risk ratio, the logistic regression is inappropriate if the outcome is common. In these cases, a log-binomial regression model is preferable. On the other hand, the estimation of the regression coefficients of the log-binomial model is difficult due to ...
