In this article, we propose a multivariate Pascal mixture regression model as an alternative to understand the association between multivariate count response variables and their covariates. When compared to the copula approach, this proposed class of regression models is not only less complex...

This paper presents a method for estimating the average treatment effects (ATE) of an exponential endogenous switching model where the coefficients of covariates in the structural equation are random and correlated with the binary treatment variable. The estimating equations are derived under...

This article develops a Bayesian approach for estimating panel quantile regression with binary outcomes in the presence of correlated random effects. We construct a working likelihood using an asymmetric Laplace (AL) error distribution and combine it with suitable prior distributions to obtain...

Consider a bipartite network where N consumers choose to buy or not to buy M different products. This paper considers the properties of the logistic regression of the N ×M array of "i-buys-j" purchase decisions, [Yij ] 1≤i≤N,1≤j≤M, onto known functions of consumer and product attributes...

Consider a bipartite network where N consumers choose to buy or not to buy M different products. This paper considers the properties of the logit fit of the N ×M array of "i-buys-j" purchase decisions, Y = [Yij ]1≤i≤N,1≤j≤M , onto a vector of known functions of consumer and product...

In spite of the widespread use of generalized additive models (GAMs), there is no well established methodology for simultaneous inference and variable selection for the components of GAM. There is no doubt that both, inference on the marginal component functions and their selection, are...

In this paper we use Monte Carlo testing techniques for testing linearity against the smooth transition models. The Monte Carlo approach allows us to introduce a new test that differs from the tests existing in the literature in two respects. First, the test is exact in the sense that the...

We introduce two neural network models designed for application in statistical learning. The mean-variance neural network regression model allows us to simultaneously model the mean and the variance of a response variable. In case of a two-dimensional response vector, the...
