Even though most studies on longitudinal count data with a specific number of ‘failures’ occur in a finite setting, the NM model is typically chosen over the more accurate MIH model. This raises the question: How much information is lost when inferring with the approximate NM model instead of the true MIH model? The loss is quantified by a measure called deficiency in statistics. In this paper, asymptotic bounds for the deficiencies between MIH and NM experiments are derived, as well as between MIH and the corresponding multivariate normal experiments with the same mean-covariance structure. The findings are supported by a local approximation for the log-ratio of the MIH and NM probability mass functions, and by Hellinger distance bounds.</p>","PeriodicalId":51166,"journal":{"name":"Statistical Papers","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139409125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, we suggest a modification of this shrinkage regression into a two-parameter smoothed least-squares estimator (<span> <span>({SLS}_{2})</span> </span>). This estimator solves the overparameterization problem, and it has superior properties since it ensures that the orthogonality assumption between residuals and the predicted dependent variable holds, which leads to an increased goodness-of-fit.

However, in practical, there are two main questions for the fixed slicing scheme: how many slices should be chosen and how to divide all samples into different slices. To solve these problems, we first expand the functional predictor and functional regression parameters on the functional principal component basis or a given basis such as B-spline basis.

Identifiability is ensured under instrumental variable assumption that there is an instrumental covariate related to the prospensity but unrelated to the response variable, or the assumption that the conditional score function is linear in the response variable. We propose a new estimating equation for the prospensity by taking expectation of the unobservable part on a linear combination of all covariates rather than the covariates themselves. This estimating equation does not suffer from the typical curse of dimensionality. Then the unknown nonparametric function is approximated by polynomial spline basis functions and we construct estimating equations for mean of response based on the inverse probability weighting. Under some regular conditions, we establish asymptotic normality of the proposed estimators for parametric components and consistency of the estimators of nonparametric functions.

Classical Newton’s method becomes quite slow and unstable with an intensive calculation of the large Hessian matrix and its inverse. Iterative methods separately updating parameters for the finite dimensional component and the infinite dimensional component have been developed to speed up single iterations, but they often take more steps until convergence or even sometimes sacrifice estimation precision due to sub-optimal update direction. We propose a computationally efficient implicit profiling algorithm that achieves simultaneously the fast iteration step in iterative methods and the optimal update direction in Newton’s method by profiling out the infinite dimensional component as the function of the finite-dimensional component. We devise a first-order approximation when the profiling function has no explicit analytical form. We show that our implicit profiling method always solves any local quadratic programming problem in two steps. In two numerical experiments under semiparametric transformation models and GARCH-M models, as well as a real application using NTP data, we demonstrated the computational efficiency and statistical precision of our implicit profiling method.

However, the choice of these functions is typically based on the domain of the modeled quantities and is usually not further scrutinized. For example, the exponential response function is often assumed for parameters restricted to be positive, although it implies a multiplicative model, which is not necessarily desirable or adequate. Consequently, applied researchers might face misleading results when relying on such defaults. For parameters restricted to be positive, we propose to construct alternative response functions based on the softplus function. These response functions are differentiable and correspond closely to the identity function for positive values of the regression predictor implying a quasi-additive model. Consequently, the proposed response functions allow for an additive interpretation of the estimated effects by practitioners and can be a better fit in certain data situations. We study the properties of the newly constructed response functions and demonstrate the applicability in the context of count data regression and Bayesian distributional regression. We contrast our approach to the commonly used exponential response function.</p>","PeriodicalId":51166,"journal":{"name":"Statistical Papers","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138689724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
