A Regression Tree Method for Longitudinal and Clustered Data with Multivariate Responses

Wenbo Jing, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

RE-EM tree is a tree-based method that combines the regression tree and the linear mixed effects model for modeling univariate response longitudinal or clustered data. In this pape…

Dynamic estimation with random forests for discrete-time survival data

Hoora Moradian, Weichi Yao, Denis Larocque +2

Time-varying covariates are often available in survival studies and estimation of the hazard function needs to be updated as new information becomes available. In this paper, we in…

Selection of Regression Models under Linear Restrictions for Fixed and Random Designs

Sen Tian, Clifford M. Hurvich, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

Many important modeling tasks in linear regression, including variable selection (in which slopes of some predictors are set equal to zero) and simplified models based on sums or d…

Hot Racquet or Not? An Exploration of Momentum in Grand Slam Tennis Matches

Arjun Goyal, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

The presence of momentum in sports, where the outcome of a previous event affects a following event, is a belief often held by fans, and has been the subject of statistical study f…

Ensemble methods for survival function estimation with time-varying covariates

Weichi Yao, Halina Frydman, Denis Larocque +1

Survival data with time-varying covariates are common in practice. If relevant, they can improve on the estimation of survival function. However, the traditional survival forests -…

On the Use of Information Criteria for Subset Selection in Least Squares Regression

Sen Tian, Clifford M. Hurvich, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

Least squares (LS)-based subset selection methods are popular in linear regression modeling. Best subset selection (BS) is known to be NP-hard and has a computational cost that gro…

An Ensemble Method for Interval-Censored Time-to-Event Data

Weichi Yao, Halina Frydman, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

Interval-censored data analysis is important in biomedical statistics for any type of time-to-event response where the time of response is not known exactly, but rather only known…

Joint Latent Class Trees: A Tree-Based Approach to Modeling Time-to-event and Longitudinal Data

Ningshan Zhang, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

In this paper, we propose a semiparametric, tree based joint latent class modeling approach (JLCT) to model the joint behavior of longitudinal and time-to-event data. Existing join…

Survival Trees for Interval-Censored Survival data

Wei Fu, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

Interval-censored data, in which the event time is only known to lie in some time interval, arise commonly in practice; for example, in a medical study in which patients visit clin…

Survival trees for left-truncated and right-censored data, with application to time-varying covariate data

Wei Fu, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

Tree methods (recursive partitioning) are a popular class of nonparametric methods for analyzing data. One extension of the basic tree methodology is the survival tree, which appli…

On the Sensitivity of the Lasso to the Number of Predictor Variables

Cheryl J. Flynn, Clifford M. Hurvich, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

The Lasso is a computationally efficient regression regularization procedure that can produce sparse estimators when the number of predictors (p) is large. Oracle inequalities prov…

Efficiency for Regularization Parameter Selection in Penalized Likelihood Estimation of Misspecified Models

Cheryl J. Flynn, Clifford M. Hurvich, Jeffrey S. Simonoff

It has been shown that AIC-type criteria are asymptotically efficient selectors of the tuning parameter in non-concave penalized regression methods under the assumption that the po…
