The inverse probability weighted generalized estimating equations approach (Robins et al. 1994; Robins et al. 1995), effectively removes bias and provides valid statistical inference for regression parameter estimation in marginal models when longitudinal data contain missing values. The validity of...

Purpose: Seru (cell) manufacturing system has achieved huge success in production. However, related research is limited, especially, the problem of cross-trained worker assignment. The purpose of this paper is to solve this problem for two representative seru types, divisional and rotating...

Semiparametric nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) models are very flexible in modeling long-term HIV viral dynamics. In practice, statistical analyses are often complicated due to measurement errors and missing data in covariates and non-ignorable missing data in the responses. We consider...
