Applying higher order asymptotics to mixed linear modelsLyons, Benjamin 14 October 1997 (has links)
Mixed linear models are a time honored method of analyzing correlated data. However, there is still no method of calculating exact confidence intervals or p-values for an arbitrary parameter in any mixed linear model. Instead, researchers must use either specialized approximate and exact tests that have been developed for particular models or rely on likelihood based approximate tests and confidence intervals which may be unreliable in problems with small sample sizes. This thesis develops procedures to improve small sample likelihood based inference in these important models. The first manuscript develops I.M. Skovgaard's modified directed likelihood for mixed linear models and shows how it is a general, accurate, and easy to apply method of improving inference in mixed linear models. In the second manuscript, O.E. Barndorff-Nielsen's approximate modified profile likelihood is applied to mixed linear models. This modified profile likelihood is a sensible generalization of the commonly used residual likelihood and can be applied if either a fixed or a covariance parameter is of interest. The final manuscript discusses how the design of a mixed linear model effects the accuracy of Skovgaard's modified likelihood and suggests a useful decomposition of that statistic. / Graduation date: 1998

Diagnostics for the evaluation of spatial linear modelsThompson, Caryn M. (Caryn Marie) 06 June 1995 (has links)
Geostatistical linear interpolation procedures such as kriging require knowledge of the
covariance structure of the spatial process under investigation. In practice, the covariance of the
process is unknown, and must be estimated from the available data. As the quality of the
resulting predictions, and associated mean square prediction errors, depends on adequate
specification of the covariance structure, it is important that the analyst be able to detect
inadequacies in the specified covariance model. Case-deletion diagnostics are currently used by
geostatisticians to evaluate spatial models.
The second chapter of the thesis describes a particular case-deletion diagnostic based on
standardized PRESS residuals, and its use in assessing the predictive capacity of spatial
covariance models. Distributional properties of this statistic, denoted T [subscript PR], are discussed, and
a saddlepoint approximation to its distribution is derived. Guidelines for calculating
approximate p-values for the statistic under an hypothesized covariance model are also given. A
simulation study demonstrates that the distributional and p-value approximations are accurate.
The proposed method is illustrated through an example, and recommendations for calculation of
T [subscript PR], and associated approximate p-values on a regional basis are given.
The third chapter investigates the behavior of the standardized PRESS residuals under
various misspecifications of the covariance matrix, V. A series of simulation studies show
consistent patterns in the standardized PRESS residuals under particular types of
misspecifications of V. It is observed that misspecification of V may lead to variability among
the standardized PRESS residuals greater or less than would be expected if V was correctly specified, depending on the nature of the misspecification. Based on this observation, an adjustment to normal probability plots of the standardized PRESS residuals is proposed. The adjusted normal probability plots may be used to identify potential improvements to covariance models, without requiring extensive further calculations. / Graduation date: 1996
