Robust Regression with Projection Based M-estimators
The robust regression techniques in the RANSAC family are popular today in computer vision, but their performance depends on a user supplied threshold. We eliminate this drawback of RANSAC by reformulating another robust method, the M-estimator, as a projection pursuit optimization problem. The projection based pbM-estimator automatically derives the threshold from univariate kernel density est...
متن کاملNew M-estimators in semiparametric regression with errors in variables
In the regression model with errors in variables, we observe n i.i.d. copies of (Y, Z) satisfying Y = fθ0(X) + ξ and Z = X + ε involving independent and unobserved random variables X, ξ, ε plus a regression function fθ0, known up to some finite dimensional θ. The common densities of the Xi’s and of the ξi’s are unknown whereas the distribution of ε is completely known. We aim at estimating the ...
متن کاملModeling Costs with Generalized Gamma Regression
There are three broad classes of models used to address the econometric problems caused by skewness in data commonly encountered in health care applications: (1) transformation to deal with skewness (e.g., OLS on ln(y)); (2) alternative weighting approaches based on exponential conditional models (ECM) and generalized linear model (GLM) approaches; and (3) survival models (Cox proportional haza...
متن کاملRegression calibration in semiparametric accelerated failure time models.
In large cohort studies, it often happens that some covariates are expensive to measure and hence only measured on a validation set. On the other hand, relatively cheap but error-prone measurements of the covariates are available for all subjects. Regression calibration (RC) estimation method (Prentice, 1982, Biometrika 69, 331-342) is a popular method for analyzing such data and has been appli...
متن کاملAccelerated rates regression models for recurrent failure time data.
In this article, we formulate a semiparametric model for counting processes in which the effect of covariates is to transform the time scale for a baseline rate function. We assume an arbitrary dependence structure for the counting process and propose a class of estimating equations for the regression parameters. Asymptotic results for these estimators are derived. In addition, goodness of fit ...
