Fully nonparametric inverse probability weighting estimation with nonignorable missing data and its extension to missing quantile regression
In practical data analysis, the not-missing-at-random (NMAR) mechanism is typically more aligned with the natural causes of missing data. The NMAR mechanism is complicated and adaptable, surpassing the capabilities of classical methods in addressing this missing data challenge. A comprehensive analysis framework for the NMAR problem is established, and a novel inverse probability weighting method based on the fully nonparametric exponential tilting model and sieve minimum distance is constructed. Additionally, given the broad field of applications for the quantile regression model, fully nonparametric inverse probability weighting and augmented inverse probability weighting for estimating quantile regression under NMAR are introduced. Simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed methods are better suited for various flexible propensity score functions. In practical applications, our methods are applied to the AIDS Clinical Trials Group Study 175 data to examine the effectiveness of treatments on HIV-infected subjects.
期刊介绍:
Computational Statistics and Data Analysis (CSDA), an Official Publication of the network Computational and Methodological Statistics (CMStatistics) and of the International Association for Statistical Computing (IASC), is an international journal dedicated to the dissemination of methodological research and applications in the areas of computational statistics and data analysis. The journal consists of four refereed sections which are divided into the following subject areas:
I) Computational Statistics - Manuscripts dealing with: 1) the explicit impact of computers on statistical methodology (e.g., Bayesian computing, bioinformatics,computer graphics, computer intensive inferential methods, data exploration, data mining, expert systems, heuristics, knowledge based systems, machine learning, neural networks, numerical and optimization methods, parallel computing, statistical databases, statistical systems), and 2) the development, evaluation and validation of statistical software and algorithms. Software and algorithms can be submitted with manuscripts and will be stored together with the online article.
II) Statistical Methodology for Data Analysis - Manuscripts dealing with novel and original data analytical strategies and methodologies applied in biostatistics (design and analytic methods for clinical trials, epidemiological studies, statistical genetics, or genetic/environmental interactions), chemometrics, classification, data exploration, density estimation, design of experiments, environmetrics, education, image analysis, marketing, model free data exploration, pattern recognition, psychometrics, statistical physics, image processing, robust procedures.
