    Sammanfattning : The estimation of latent variable models with ordinal and continuous, or ranking variables is the research focus of this thesis. The existing estimation methods are discussed and a composite likelihood approach is developed. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Estimation of Nonlinear Latent Variable and Mixture Models

    Författare :Johan Vegelius; Shaobo Jin; Fan Yang-Wallentin; Melanie Wall; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; structural equation modeling; semiparametric; EM algorithm; adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature approximation; Laplace approximation; zero inflation; Statistics; Statistik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis methods are developed for estimation of latent variable models. In particular nonlinear structural equation models are estimated in the presence of ordinal data and mixture models for count data. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Latent variable based computational methods for applications in life sciences : Analysis and integration of omics data sets

    Författare :Max Bylesjö; Johan Trygg; Tormod Naes; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemometrics; orthogonal projections to latent structures; OPLS; O2PLS; K-OPLS; kernel-based; non-linear; regression; classification; Populus; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : With the increasing availability of high-throughput systems for parallel monitoring of multiple variables, e.g. levels of large numbers of transcripts in functional genomics experiments, massive amounts of data are being collected even from single experiments. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Latent variable models for multivariate survival and count data

    Författare :Samuli Ripatti; David Clayton; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three papers on multivariate frailty models and one paper on the use of latent class models in genetic association studies. The common theme through the four papers is the use of latent variables to capture complex dependence structures in the data. LÄS MER
