Variance Components Estimation in Generalized Orthogonal Models
The model y = ∑w j=1 Xjβj + e is generalized orthogonal if the orthogonal projection matrices on the range spaces of matrices Xj , j = 1, ..., w, commute. Unbiased estimators are obtained for the variance components of such models with cross-nesting.
متن کاملAn Estimation of Variance Components in Linear Mixed Model
In this paper, a linear mixed model which has two random effects is broken up into two models. This thesis gets the parameter estimation of the original model and an estimation’s statistical qualities based on these two models. Then many important properties are given by comparing this estimation with other general estimations. At the same time, this paper proves the analysis of variance estima...
متن کاملEstimation of Variance Components for Body Weight of Moghani Sheep Using B-Spline Random Regression Models
The aim of the present study was the estimation of (co) variance components and genetic parameters for body weight of Moghani sheep, using random regression models based on B-Splines functions. The data set included 9165 body weight records from 60 to 360 days of age from 2811 Moghani sheep, collected between 1994 to 2013 from Jafar-Abad Animal Research and Breeding Institute, Ardabil province,...
متن کاملTests for Variance Components in Varying Coefficient Mixed Models
We consider a general class of varying coefficient mixed models where random effects are introduced to account for between-subject variation. To address the question of whether a varying coefficient mixed model can be reduced to a simpler varying coefficient model, we develop one-sided tests for the null hypothesis that all the variance components are zero. In addition to the purely null-based ...
متن کاملU-tests for variance components in linear mixed models
We propose U -statistics-based tests for null variance components in linear mixed models. We obtain their asymptotic distribution (for increasing number of units) under mild regularity conditions that include only the existence of the second moment for the distribution of the random effects and of the fourth moment for the distribution of the conditional errors. We also derive their nonnull dis...
