Seleção de modelos multiníveis para dados de avaliação educacional
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa de Pós-graduação em Estatística - Interinstitucional (PIPGEs), Câmpus São Carlos, 11/08/2017)When a dataset contains a hierarchical data structure, a possible approach is the multilevel regression modelling, which is justified by the significative amout of the data variability that can be explained by macro level ... -
Small and time-efficient distribution-free predictive regions
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 02/05/2023)Predicting a target variable (response) is often the main objective of many studies and investigations. In such scenarios, there are usually other variables, known as covariates, that are more readily available and can ... -
Some extensions in measurement error models
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 14/12/2018)In this dissertation, we approach three different contributions in measurement error model (MEM). Initially, we carry out maximum penalized likelihood inference in MEM’s under the normality assumption. The methodology ... -
Statistical inference for non-homogeneous Poisson process with competing risks: a repairable systems approach under power-law process
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 30/08/2019)In this thesis, the main objective is to study certain aspects of modeling failure time data of repairable systems under a competing risks framework. We consider two different models and propose more efficient Bayesian ... -
Tempo de espera para a ocorrência de palavras em ensaios de Markov
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 06/04/2016)Consider a sequence of independent coin flips where we denote the result of any landing for H, if coming up head, or T, otherwise. Create patterns with H's and T's, for example, HHHHH or HTHTH. How many times do we have ... -
Teoremas limite para variáveis aleatórias de Bernoulli dependentes
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 22/03/2023)In this work, we consider a sequence of correlated Bernoulli variables whose probability of success for the current trial depends conditionally on previous trials. This conditional probability is given as a linear function ... -
Testes bayesianos em ensaios clínicos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 22/02/2022)In this thesis, we propose two new Bayesian approaches for equivalence hypotheses testing for proportions and prove that these Bayesian hypotheses tests are equivalent. These Bayesian methodologies applied to equivalence ... -
Testes de superioridade para modelos de chances proporcionais com e sem fração de cura
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 24/10/2017)Studies that prove the superiority of a drug in relation to others already existing in the market are of great interest in clinical practice. Based on them the Brazilian National Agency of Sanitary Surveillance (ANVISA) ... -
Técnicas de classificação aplicadas a credit scoring: revisão sistemática e comparação
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 18/12/2015)Nowadays the increasing amount of bank transactions and the increasing of data storage created a demand for risk evaluation associated with personal loans. It is very important for a company has a very good tools in credit ... -
Using VAE for incomplete educational data
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 13/03/0023)In Psychometrics, especially in educational assessments, incomplete databases are common. An individual may leave items unanswered in an assessment due to lack of time, forgetting the content involved, nervousness, or ... -
Vector representation of texts applied to prediction models
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, UFSCar, Programa Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEs, Câmpus São Carlos, 09/03/2020)Natural Language Processing has gone through substantial changes over time. It was only recently that statistical approaches started receiving attention. The Word2Vec model is one of these. It is a shallow neural network ...
