Inference for variance components in a mixed model for unbalanced split plot design
Guven, B (Informa UK Limited, 2005-01-01)
We consider the unbalanced split-plot design with the whole plot and the subplot effect from nonnormal universes. The three estimators for the whole plot effect variance component are obtained. An approximate test for significance of the whole plot effect variance component is presented.
Estimation and hypothesis testing in multivariate linear regression models under non normality
İslam, Muhammed Qamarul (Informa UK Limited, 2017-01-01)
This paper discusses the problem of statistical inference in multivariate linear regression models when the errors involved are non normally distributed. We consider multivariate t-distribution, a fat-tailed distribution, for the errors as alternative to normal distribution. Such non normality is commonly observed in working with many data sets, e.g., financial data that are usually having excess kurtosis. This distribution has a number of applications in many other areas of research as well. We use modifie...
Univariate Sample Size Determination by Alternative Components: Issues on Design Efficiency for Complex Samples
Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan (Exeley, Inc., 2018-06-01)
Sample size determination for any sample survey can be based on the desired objectives of the survey as well as the level of confidence of the desired estimates for some survey variables, the desired precision of the survey results and the size of the population. In addition to these, the cost of enumeration can also be considered as an important criterion for sample size determination. Recently, some international organizations have been using univariate sample size determination approaches for their multi...
Mutual information model selection algorithm for time series
Akca, Elif; Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan (Informa UK Limited, 2020-09-01)
Time series model selection has been widely studied in recent years. It is of importance to select the best model among candidate models proposed for a series in terms of explaining the procedure that governs the series and providing the most accurate forecast for the future observations. In this study, it is aimed to create an algorithm for order selection in Box-Jenkins models that combines penalized natural logarithm of mutual information among the original series and predictions coming from each candida...
Estimation in the simple linear regression model with one-fold nested error
Ülgen, Burçin Emre; Güven, Bilgehan; Department of Statistics (2005)
In this thesis, estimation in simple linear regression model with one-fold nested error is studied. To estimate the fixed effect parameters, generalized least squares and maximum likelihood estimation procedures are reviewed. Moreover, Minimum Norm Quadratic Estimator (MINQE), Almost Unbiased Estimator (AUE) and Restricted Maximum Likelihood Estimator (REML) of variance of primary units are derived. Also, confidence intervals for the fixed effect parameters and the variance components are studied. Finally, ...
