Partially identified prevalence estimation under misclassification using the kappa coefficient
Many empirical studies are confronted with severe misclassification error. While interest is in the realizations of a variable Y (e.g. disease yes/no), only a related variable Y ∗ (e.g. the outcome of a diagnostic test) can be observed. Even in the case of simple prevalence estimation, naive estimation, neglecting the fundamental difference between Y and Y ∗, may be considerably biased ([1], [2...

متن کاملEstimation of Partially Linear Varying-Coefficient EV Model Under Restricted condition
In this paper, we study a partially linear varying-coefficient errors-invariables (EV) model under additional restricted condition. Both of the parametric and nonparametric components are measured with additive errors. The restricted estimators of parametric and nonparametric components are established based on modified profile least-squares method and local correction method, and their asympto...
متن کاملEstimation of Misclassification Error Using Bayesian Classifiers
Bayesian classifiers provide relatively good performance compared with other more complex algorithms. Misclassification ratio is very low for trained samples, but in the case of outliers the misclassification error may increase significantly. The usage of ‘summation hack’ method in Bayesian classification algorithm can reduce the misclassifications rate for untrained samples. The goal of this p...
متن کاملEfficient estimation of partially linear varying coefficient models
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating a semiparametric partially linear varying coefficient model. We derive the semiparametric efficiency bound for the asymptotic variance of the finitedimensional parameter estimator. We also propose an efficient estimator for estimating the finitedimensional parameter of the model. Simulation results show substantial efficiency gain of our prop...
