A Unified Method for Improved Inference in Random-effects Meta-analysis
Shonosuke Sugasawa, Hisashi Noma
Random-effects meta-analyses have been widely applied in evidence synthesis for various types of medical studies. However, standard inference methods (e.g. restricted maximum likel…
Adaptively Transformed Mixed Model Prediction of General Finite Population Parameters
Shonosuke Sugasawa, Tatsuya Kubokawa
For estimating area-specific parameters (quantities) in a finite population, a mixed model prediction approach is attractive. However, this approach strongly depends on the normali…
On Bootstrap Averaging Empirical Bayes Estimators
Shonosuke Sugasawa
Parametric empirical Bayes (EB) estimators have been widely used in variety of fields including small area estimation, disease mapping. Since EB estimator is constructed by pluggin…
Latent Mixture Modeling for Clustered Data
Shonosuke Sugasawa, Genya Kobayashi, Yuki Kawakubo
This article proposes a mixture modeling approach to estimating cluster-wise conditional distributions in clustered (grouped) data. We adapt the mixture-of-experts model to the lat…
Robust Empirical Bayes Small Area Estimation with Density Power Divergence
Shonosuke Sugasawa
A two-stage normal hierarchical model called the Fay--Herriot model and the empirical Bayes estimator are widely used to provide indirect and model-based estimates of means in smal…
