多个线性回归模型的多重比较AI 解读

Research on multiple comparison during the past 50 years or so has focused mainly on the comparison of several population means. Several years ago, Spurrier considered the multiple comparison of several simple linear regression lines. He constructed simultaneous confidence bands for all of the contrasts of the simple linear regression lines over the entire range (-∞, ∞) when the models have the same design matrices. This article extends Spurrier's work in several directions.…

EM估计的标准误AI 解读

Summary The EM algorithm is a popular method for computing maximum likelihood estimates. One of its drawbacks is that it does not produce standard errors as a by-product. We consider obtaining standard errors by numerical differentiation. Two approaches are considered. The first differentiates the Fisher score vector to yield the Hessian of the log-likelihood. The second differentiates the EM operator and uses an identity that relates its derivative to the Hessian of the…

利用拟 Newton 方法加速 EM 算法AI 解读

Summary The EM algorithm is a popular method for maximum likelihood estimation. Its simplicity in many applications and desirable convergence properties make it very attractive. Its sometimes slow convergence, however, has prompted researchers to propose methods to accelerate it. We review these methods, classifying them into three groups: pure, hybrid and EM-type accelerators. We propose a new pure and a new hybrid accelerator both based on quasi-Newton methods and…

利用共轭梯度加速 EM 算法AI 解读

The EM algorithm is a very popular and widely applicable algorithm for the computation of maximum likelihood estimates. Although its implementation is generally simple, the EM algorithm often exhibits slow convergence and is costly in some areas of application. Past attempts to accelerate the EM algorithm have most commonly been based on some form of Aitken acceleration. Here we propose an alternative method based on conjugate gradients. The key, as we show, is that the EM…
