Unimodal regression in the two-parameter exponential family with constant or known dispersion parameter
(2008-02-04)In this paper we discuss statistical methods for curve-estimation under the assumption of unimodality for variables with distributions belonging to the two-parameter exponential family with known or constant dispersion ... -
Variance estimates based on knowledge of monotonicity and concavity properties
(University of Gothenburg, 1998-08-01)In problems dealing with regression functions the choice of model and estimation method is due to a priori information about the regression function. In some situations it is motivated to consider regression functions with ... -
VISUAL EVALUATIONS OF STATISTICAL SURVEILLANCE
(University of Gothenburg, 1994-03-01)A computer program which simultaneously gives visual information on important characteristics is presented. Surveillance, that is continual observation of a time series with the goal of timely detection of possible important ... -
When does Heckman’s two-step procedure for censored data work and when does it not?
(2008-02-22)Heckman’s two-step procedure (Heckit) for estimating the parameters in linear models from censored data is frequently used by econometricians, despite of the fact that earlier studies cast doubt on the procedure. In this ...
