Semiparametric regression analysis of longitudinal data with informative drop-outs.
Informative drop-out arises in longitudinal studies when the subject's follow-up time depends on the unobserved values of the response variable. We specify a semiparametric linear regression model for the repeatedly measured response variable and an accelerated failure time model for the time to informative drop-out. The error terms from the two models are assumed to have a common, but complete...
متن کاملEmpirical likelihood semiparametric nonlinear regression analysis for longitudinal data with responses missing at random
This paper develops the empirical likelihood (EL) inference on parameters and baseline function in a semiparametric nonlinear regression model for longitudinal data in the presence of missing response variables. We propose two EL-based ratio statistics for regression coefficients by introducing the working covariance matrix and a residual-adjusted EL ratio statistic for baseline function. We es...
متن کاملEfficient quantile marginal regression for longitudinal data with dropouts.
In many biomedical studies independent variables may affect the conditional distribution of the response differently in the middle as opposed to the upper or lower tail. Quantile regression evaluates diverse covariate effects on the conditional distribution of the response with quantile-specific regression coefficients. In this paper, we develop an empirical likelihood inference procedure for l...
متن کاملSemiparametric analysis of mixture regression models with competing risks data.
In the analysis of competing risks data, cumulative incidence function is a useful summary of the overall crude risk for a failure type of interest. Mixture regression modeling has served as a natural approach to performing covariate analysis based on this quantity. However, existing mixture regression methods with competing risks data either impose parametric assumptions on the conditional ris...
متن کاملSemiparametric Mean–Covariance Regression Analysis for Longitudinal Data
Efficient estimation of the regression coefficients in longitudinal data analysis requires a correct specification of the covariance structure. Existing approaches usually focus on modeling the mean with specification of certain covariance structures, which may lead to inefficient or biased estimators of parameters in the mean if misspecification occurs. In this article, we propose a data-drive...
