Paired sample tests with unordered observations
(2009-04-15)
The problem of testing equality of means of a bivariate normal
distribution on the basis of a sample of size n has been considered when
the labels of the observations are not known. Two tests based on the sample
moments ...
A flexible model for generalized linear regression with measurement error
(2006-10-27)
This paper focuses on the question of specification of measurement error
distribution and the distribution of true predictors in generalized linear models
when the predictors are subject to measurement errors. The standard ...
Analysis of misclassified correlated binary data using a multivariate probit model when covariates are subjected to measurement error
(2009-04-15)
A multivariate probit model for correlated binary responses given the predictors of interest has been
considered. Some of the responses are subject to classification errors and hence are not directly
observable. Also ...
Analysis of mixed outcomes: misclassified binary responses and measurement error in covariates
(2009-04-15)
This paper considers regression models for mixed binary and continuous outcomes, when the true predictor
is measured with error and the binary responses are subject to classification errors. The focus of the paper is
to ...
Confidence interval of two independent binomial proportions using weighted profile likelihood
(Communications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation, 2008-11-11)
Interval estimation of the difference of two independent binomial proportions is an important problem in many applied settings. Newcombe (1998) compared the performance of several existing asymptotic methods, and based on ...
Hypothese on the effect of cadmium on glutathione content of red blood corpuscles
(2006-10-27)
Previous studies have shown that Glutathione, a
tripeptide found in blood, is involved in protecting
against toxins. Glutathione levels are known to drop in
response to cadmium. Using 15 twin pairs, we
modeled the ...
Increased mortality rate associated with chikungunya epidemic, Ahmedabad, India
(Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008-11-10)
In 2005–2006, Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean reported ≈266,000 cases of chikungunya; 254 were fatal (case-fatality rate 1/1,000). India reported 1.39 million cases of chikungunya fever in 2006 with no attributable ...
