Abstract
In this note, we study how parameter vector estimation for a trigonometric regression model and the expected squared residual error computed from an estimated model are affected by Berkson‐type measurement error. Closed‐form expressions for the parameter vector and the expected squared residual error are obtained by assuming that the observed covariate data are sampled from an equispaced design and that measurement error is generated from a symmetric probability distribution with a mean of zero. Notably, these results indicate that estimates of the amplitude parameters for a trigonometric regression model suffer from attenuation bias when covariate data are mis‐measured, and that estimates of the phase‐shift parameters are unbiased.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
