Some extensions in measurement error models
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-12-14)
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 ...
Modelagem conjunta de dados longitudinais e de sobrevivência para avaliação de desfechos clínicos do parto
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-12-06)
As most pregnancy-related deaths and morbidities are clustered around the time of child birth, the quality of care during this period is crucial for mothers and their babies. To monitor the women at this stage, the partograph ...
Modelos espaciais de captura-recaptura para populações abertas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-11-22)
In this thesis we propose two spatial capture-recapture models for estimation of population abundance in the open population. The proposed statistical models conform to data obtained through individual tag capture-recapture ...
Penalized regression methods for compositional data
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-12-10)
Compositional data consist of known vectors such as compositions whose components are positive and defined in the interval (0,1) representing proportions or fractions of a "whole", where the sum of these components must ...
Bayesian and classical inference for the generalized gamma distribution and related models
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-02-22)
The generalized gamma (GG) distribution is an important model that has proven to be
very flexible in practice for modeling data from several areas. This model has important sub-models, such as the Weibull, gamma, lognormal, ...
