二元工具变量与删失数据下的因果分位数效应估计AI 解读

Abstract The causal effect of a treatment is of fundamental interest in the social, biological and health sciences. Instrumental variable (IV) methods are commonly used to determine causal treatment effects in the presence of unmeasured confounding. In this work, we study a new binary IV framework with randomly censored outcomes where we propose to quantify the causal treatment effect by the concept of complier quantile causal effect (CQCE). The CQCE is identifiable under…

稀疏异步纵向数据的回归分析AI 解读

Summary We consider estimation of regression models for sparse asynchronous longitudinal observations, where time-dependent responses and covariates are observed intermittently within subjects. Unlike with synchronous data, where the response and covariates are observed at the same time point, with asynchronous data, the observation times are mismatched. Simple kernel-weighted estimating equations are proposed for generalized linear models with either time invariant or…

分位数关联回归模型AI 解读

It is often important to study the association between two continuous variables. In this work, we propose a novel regression framework for assessing conditional associations on quantiles. We develop general methodology which permits covariate effects on both the marginal quantile models for the two variables and their quantile associations. The proposed quantile copula models have straightforward interpretation, facilitating a comprehensive view of association structure…

竞争风险分位数回归AI 解读

Quantile regression has emerged as a significant extension of traditional linear models and its potential in survival applications has recently been recognized. In this paper we study quantile regression with competing risks data, formulating the model based on conditional quantiles defined using the cumulative incidence function, which includes as a special case an analog to the usual accelerated failure time model. The proposed competing risks quantile regression model…
