We consider an extension of the temporal epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model with random effects as a special case of a well-known doubly stochastic self-exciting point process. The new model arises from a deterministic function that is randomly scaled by a nonnegative random...

Recurrent event data frequently arise in longitudinal studies when study subjects possibly experience more than one event during the observation period. Often, such recurrent events can be categorized. However, part of the categorization may be missing due to technical difficulties. If the event...

A rate model is proposed for a modulated renewal process comprising a single long sequence, where the covariate process may not capture the dependencies in the sequence as in standard intensity models. We consider partial likelihood-based inferences under a semiparametric multiplicative rate...

This research proposes a mortality model with an age shift to project future mortality using principal component analysis (PCA). Comparisons of the proposed PCA model with the well-known models--the Lee-Carter model, the age-period-cohort model (Renshaw and Haberman, 2006), and the Cairns,...
