- The main objective of this paper is to show how algorithms for classical robust regression can be modified for recursive evaluation. It is shown that such a modification can be utilized to increase the algorithmic efficiency for convex object functions. However, for the non-convex ones it is demonstrated that recursion gives little help to find the optimal solution.

- In the augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) regression one usually decides on the level of the "augmentation" prior to the performing of unit root test. This is a purely data-dependent method that uses either some information criteria or some sequential test of significance on parameter estimates. Contrary to earlier beliefs, our analyses reveal that the presence and/or absence of a drift and a time trend in the data generating process has a remarkable effect on the behaviour of the subsequent tests for unit root.

Quantile regression with censored data using generalized L1minimization
- 1997
-
Ingår i: Computational Statistics & Data Analysis. - 0167-9473. ; 23:4, s. 509-524

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We propose a way to estimate a parametric quantile function when the dependent variable, e.g. the survival time, is censored. We discuss one way to do this, transforming the problem of finding the p-quantile for the true, uncensored, survival times into a problem of finding the q-quantile for the observed, censored, times. The q-value involves the distribution of the censoring times, which is unknown. The estimation of the quantile function is done using the asymmetric L1 technique with weights involving local Kaplan-Meier estimates of the distribution of the censoring limit.

- Empirical duration analysis calls for numerical methods to search for a maximum of a non-linear likelihood function. The NEWTON method is probably a common choice. Yet, it might also be an unwise choice, as we demonstrate fitting a large empirical data s

Testing for independence in a competing risks model
- 1996
-
Ingår i: COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS & DATA ANALYSIS. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV. - 0167-9473. ; 22:5, s. 527-535
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper examines the performance of the conventional likelihood ratio test when testing for independence between failure times in a competing risks framework. The dependence between failure times arises by stochastically related unobserved components.
