Use Of Unbiased Estimating Equations To Estimate Correlation In Generalized Estimating Equation Analysis Of Longitudinal Trials, Wenguang Sun, Justine Shults, Mary Leonard
Use Of Unbiased Estimating Equations To Estimate Correlation In Generalized Estimating Equation Analysis Of Longitudinal Trials, Wenguang Sun, Justine Shults, Mary Leonard
Justine Shults
In a recent publication, Wang and Carey (Journal of the American Statistical Association, 99, pp. 845-853, 2004) presented a new approach for estimation of the correlation parameters in the framework of generalized estimating equations (GEE). They considered correlated continuous, binary and count data with a generalized Markov correlation structure that includes the first-order autoregressive AR(1) and Markov structures as special cases. They made detailed comparisons with pseudo-likelihood (PL) and the first stage of quasi-least squares (QLS), a two-stage approach in the framework of generalized estimating equations (GEE). In this note we extend their comparisons for the second (bias corrected) stage …
Statistical Analysis Of Air Pollution Panel Studies: An Illustration, Holly Janes, Lianne Sheppard, Kristen Shepherd
Statistical Analysis Of Air Pollution Panel Studies: An Illustration, Holly Janes, Lianne Sheppard, Kristen Shepherd
UW Biostatistics Working Paper Series
The panel study design is commonly used to evaluate the short-term health effects of air pollution. Standard statistical methods for analyzing longitudinal data are available, but the literature reveals that the techniques are not well understood by practitioners. We illustrate these methods using data from the 1999 to 2002 Seattle panel study. Marginal, conditional, and transitional approaches for modeling longitudinal data are reviewed and contrasted with respect to their parameter interpretation and methods for accounting for correlation and dealing with missing data. We also discuss and illustrate techniques for controlling for time-dependent and time-independent confounding, and for exploring and summarizing …
Bayesian Hidden Markov Modeling Of Array Cgh Data, Subharup Guha, Yi Li, Donna Neuberg
Bayesian Hidden Markov Modeling Of Array Cgh Data, Subharup Guha, Yi Li, Donna Neuberg
Harvard University Biostatistics Working Paper Series
Genomic alterations have been linked to the development and progression of cancer. The technique of Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) yields data consisting of fluorescence intensity ratios of test and reference DNA samples. The intensity ratios provide information about the number of copies in DNA. Practical issues such as the contamination of tumor cells in tissue specimens and normalization errors necessitate the use of statistics for learning about the genomic alterations from array-CGH data. As increasing amounts of array CGH data become available, there is a growing need for automated algorithms for characterizing genomic profiles. Specifically, there is a need for …

Individualized Treatment Rules: Generating Candidate Clinical Trials, Maya L. Petersen, Steven G. Deeks, Mark J. Van Der Laan
Individualized Treatment Rules: Generating Candidate Clinical Trials, Maya L. Petersen, Steven G. Deeks, Mark J. Van Der Laan
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
Statistical methods have rarely been applied to learn individualized treatment rules, or rules for altering treatments over time in response to changes in individual covariates. Termed dynamic treatment regimes in the statistical literature, such individualized treatment rules are of primary importance in the practice of clinical medicine. History-Adjusted Marginal Structural Models (HA-MSM) estimate individualized treatment rules that assign, at each time point, the first action of the future static treatment plan that optimizes expected outcome given a patient's covariates. However, as we discuss here, the optimality of these rules can depend on the way in which treatment was assigned in …
Semiparametric Latent Variable Regression Models For Spatio-Temporal Modeling Of Mobile Source Particles In The Greater Boston Area, Alexandros Gryparis, Brent A. Coull, Joel Schwartz, Helen H. Suh
Semiparametric Latent Variable Regression Models For Spatio-Temporal Modeling Of Mobile Source Particles In The Greater Boston Area, Alexandros Gryparis, Brent A. Coull, Joel Schwartz, Helen H. Suh
Harvard University Biostatistics Working Paper Series
Traffic particle concentrations show considerable spatial variability within a metropolitan area. We consider latent variable semiparametric regression models for modeling the spatial and temporal variability of black carbon and elemental carbon concentrations in the greater Boston area. Measurements of these pollutants, which are markers of traffic particles, were obtained from several individual exposure studies conducted at specific household locations as well as 15 ambient monitoring sites in the city. The models allow for both flexible, nonlinear effects of covariates and for unexplained spatial and temporal variability in exposure. In addition, the different individual exposure studies recorded different surrogates of traffic …
The Longitudinal Effect Of Self-Monitoring And Locus Of Control On Social Network Position In Friendship Networks, Gary J. Moore
The Longitudinal Effect Of Self-Monitoring And Locus Of Control On Social Network Position In Friendship Networks, Gary J. Moore
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this research was to identify how enduring personality characteristics predict a person's location in a network, locations which in turn affect outcomes such as performance. Specifically, this thesis examines how self-monitoring and locus of control influence an individual's location in a friendship social network over time. Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) was used to analyze 28 groups of students and instructors at a military training course over six and one half weeks. Self-monitoring predicted betweenness centrality in five of six time periods while locus of control predicted betweenness centrality in three of six time periods. The moderation of …
A Diagnostic Test For The Mixing Distribution In A Generalised Linear Mixed Model, Eric J. Tchetgen, Brent A. Coull
A Diagnostic Test For The Mixing Distribution In A Generalised Linear Mixed Model, Eric J. Tchetgen, Brent A. Coull
Harvard University Biostatistics Working Paper Series
We introduce a diagnostic test for the mixing distribution in a generalised linear mixed model. The test is based on the difference between the marginal maximum likelihood and conditional maximum likelihood estimates of a subset of the fixed effects in the model. We derive the asymptotic variance of this difference, and propose a test statistic that has a limiting chi-square distribution under the null hypothesis that the mixing distribution is correctly specified. For the important special case of the logistic regression model with random intercepts, we evaluate via simulation the power of the test in finite samples under several alternative …
On The Violation Of Bounds For The Correlation In Generalized Estimating Equation Analyses Of Binary Data From Longitudinal Trials, Justine Shults, Wenguang Sun, Xin Tu, Jay Amsterdam
On The Violation Of Bounds For The Correlation In Generalized Estimating Equation Analyses Of Binary Data From Longitudinal Trials, Justine Shults, Wenguang Sun, Xin Tu, Jay Amsterdam
UPenn Biostatistics Working Papers
It is well-known that the correlation among binary outcomes is constrained by the marginal means, yet approaches such as generalized estimating equations (GEE) do not check that the constraints for the correlations are satisfied. We explore this issue for Markovian dependence in the context of a GEE analysis of a clinical trial that compares Venlafaxine with Lithium in the prevention of major depressive episode. We obtain simplified expressions for the constraints for the logistic model and the equicorrelated and first-order autoregressive correlation structures. We then obtain the limiting values of the GEE and quasi-least squares (QLS) estimates of the correlation …

Methods For The Estimation Of Missing Values In Time Series, David S. Fung
Methods For The Estimation Of Missing Values In Time Series, David S. Fung
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
Time Series is a sequential set of data measured over time. Examples of time series arise in a variety of areas, ranging from engineering to economics. The analysis of time series data constitutes an important area of statistics. Since, the data are records taken through time, missing observations in time series data are very common. This occurs because an observation may not be made at a particular time owing to faulty equipment, lost records, or a mistake, which cannot be rectified until later. When one or more observations are missing it may be necessary to estimate the model and also …
