Analysis Of Continuous Longitudinal Data With Arma(1, 1) And Antedependence Correlation Structures, Sirisha Mushti
Analysis Of Continuous Longitudinal Data With Arma(1, 1) And Antedependence Correlation Structures, Sirisha Mushti
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
Longitudinal or repeated measure data are common in biomedical and clinical trials. These data are often collected on individuals at scheduled times resulting in dependent responses. Inference methods for studying the behavior of responses over time as well as methods to study the association with certain risk factors or covariates taking into account the dependencies are of great importance. In this research we focus our study on the analysis of continuous longitudinal data. To model the dependencies of the responses over time, we consider appropriate correlation structures generated by the stationary and non-stationary time-series models. We develop new estimation procedures …
Canonical Correlation Analysis For Longitudinal Data, Raymond Mccollum
Canonical Correlation Analysis For Longitudinal Data, Raymond Mccollum
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
Data (multivariate data) on two sets of vectors commonly occur in applications. Statistical analysis of these data is usually done using a canonical correlation analysis (CCA). Occurrence of these data at multiple occasions or conditions leads to longitudinal multivariate data for a CCA. We address the problem of canonical correlation analysis on longitudinal data when the data have a Kronecker product covariance structure. Using structured correlation matrices we model the dependency of repeatedly observed data. Recent work of Srivastava, Nahtman, and von Rosen (2008) developed an iterative algorithm to determine the maximum likelihood estimate of the Kronecker product covariance structure …

Statistical Analysis Of Longitudinal And Multivariate Discrete Data, Deepak Mav
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
Correlated multivariate Poisson and binary variables occur naturally in medical, biological and epidemiological longitudinal studies. Modeling and simulating such variables is difficult because the correlations are restricted by the marginal means via Fréchet bounds in a complicated way. In this dissertation we will first discuss partially specified models and methods for estimating the regression and correlation parameters. We derive the asymptotic distributions of these parameter estimates. Using simulations based on extensions of the algorithm due to Sim (1993, Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, 47, pp. 1–10), we study the performance of these estimates using infeasibility, coverage probabilities of the …
