Semiparametric fractional imputation using Gaussian mixture models for handling multivariate missing data

Hejian Sang, Jae Kwang Kim

Item nonresponse is frequently encountered in practice. Ignoring missing data can lose efficiency and lead to misleading inference. Fractional imputation is a frequentist approach…

A Profile Likelihood Approach to Semiparametric Estimation with Nonignorable Nonresponse

Hejian Sang, Kosuke Morikawa

Statistical inference with nonresponse is quite challenging, especially when the response mechanism is nonignorable. The existing methods often require correct model specifications…

Bayesian Sparse Propensity Score Estimation for Unit Nonresponse

Hejian Sang, Gyuhyeong Goh, Jae Kwang Kim

Nonresponse weighting adjustment using propensity score is a popular method for handling unit nonresponse. However, including all available auxiliary variables into the propensity…

Adaptive Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics: Taming Convergence and Saddle Point Escape Time

Hejian Sang, Jia Liu

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (ASGLD) algorithmic framework and its two specialized versions, namely adaptive stochastic gradient (…

An approximate Bayesian inference on propensity score estimation under unit nonresponse

Hejian Sang, Jae Kwang Kim

Nonresponse weighting adjustment using the response propensity score is a popular tool for handling unit nonresponse. Statistical inference after the nonresponse weighting adjustme…
