This paper develops a class of models to deal with missing data from longitudinal studies. We assume that separate models for the primary response and missingness (e.g., number of missed visits) are ...

Researchers from many fields can benefit from applied knowledge of general linear models. This class of models includes the t-test (paired and two sample), regression, ANOVA, and ANCOVA. Like all ...

This paper investigates new aspects of robust inference for general linear models, calling for a broader array of error measures, beyond the conventional notion of ...

Linear models, generalized linear models, and nonlinear models are examples of parametric regression models because we know the function that describes the relationship between the response and ...

Abstract: Assumptions play a pivotal role in the selection and efficacy of statistical models, as unmet assumptions can lead to flawed conclusions and impact decision-making. In both traditional ...

A variety of linear models are available to represent common active electronic devices such as transistors and vacuum tubes. Devices operating under large-signal conditions often require nonlinear ...
