Nonparametric and Semiparametric Methods in R
The R environment for statistical computing and graphics (R Development Core Team (2008)) offers practitioners a rich set of statistical methods ranging from random number generation and optimization methods through regression, panel data, and time series methods, by way of illustration. The standard R distribution (‘base R) comes preloaded with a rich variety of functionality useful for applie...
متن کاملNonparametric and Semiparametric Methods for Interval-censored Failure Time Data
Interval-censored failure time data commonly arise in follow-up studies such as clinical trials and epidemiology studies. For their analysis, what interests researcher most includes comparisons of survival functions for different groups and regression analysis. This dissertation, which consists of three parts, consider these problems on two types of interval-censored data by using nonparametric...
متن کاملSemiparametric and Nonparametric Gene Mapping
We review gene mapping, or inference for quantitative trait loci, in the context of recent research in semi-parametric and non-parametric inference for mixture models. Gene mapping studies the relationship between a phenotypic trait and inherited genotype. Semi-parametric gene mapping using the exponential tilt covers most standard exponential families and improves estimation of genetic effects...
متن کاملNonparametric and Semiparametric Bayesian Reliability Analysis
In this article, we first provide an overview of some nonparametric Bayesian methods of inference using life-history data. These methods include those that use Dirichlet process, gamma process and beta process as the prior. We then present a semiparametric Bayesian method for estimating the reliability of a component in a multi-component system using lifetime data from several systems. This met...
متن کاملNonparametric and semiparametric group sequential methods for comparing accuracy of diagnostic tests.
SUMMARY Comparison of the accuracy of two diagnostic tests using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves from two diagnostic tests has been typically conducted using fixed sample designs. On the other hand, the human experimentation inherent in a comparison of diagnostic modalities argues for periodic monitoring of the accruing data to address many issues related to the ethics and ef...
