An Introduction to Poisson Regression Russ Lavery, K&L Consulting Services, King of Prussia, PA, U.S.A
NESUG 2010 Statistics and Analysis An Animated Guide: An Introduction To Poisson Regression Russ Lavery, K&L Consulting Services, King of Prussia, PA, U.S.A. ABSTRACT: This paper will be a brief introduction to Poisson regression (theory, steps to be followed, complications and interpretation) via a worked example. It is hoped that this will increase motivation towards learning this useful statistical technique. INTRODUCTION: Poisson regression is available in SAS through the GENMOD procedure (generalized modeling). It is appropriate when: 1) the process that generates the conditional Y distributions would, theoretically, be expected to be a Poisson random process and 2) when there is no evidence of overdispersion and 3) when the mean of the marginal distribution is less than ten (preferably less than five and ideally close to one). THE POISSON DISTRIBUTION: The Poison distribution is a discrete Percent of observations where the random variable X is expected distribution and is appropriate for to have the value x, given that the Poisson distribution has a mean modeling counts of observations. of λ= P(X=x, λ ) = (e - λ * λ X) / X! Counts are observed cases, like the 0.4 count of measles cases in cities. You λ can simply model counts if all data 0.35 were collected in the same measuring 0.3 unit (e.g. the same number of days or 0.3 0.5 0.8 same number of square feet). 0.25 λ 1 0.2 3 You can use the Poisson Distribution = 5 for modeling rates (rates are counts 0.15 20 per unit) if the units of collection were 8 different. -

Fast Computation of the Deviance Information Criterion for Latent Variable Models
Crawford School of Public Policy CAMA Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis Fast Computation of the Deviance Information Criterion for Latent Variable Models CAMA Working Paper 9/2014 January 2014 Joshua C.C. Chan Research School of Economics, ANU and Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis Angelia L. Grant Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis Abstract The deviance information criterion (DIC) has been widely used for Bayesian model comparison. However, recent studies have cautioned against the use of the DIC for comparing latent variable models. In particular, the DIC calculated using the conditional likelihood (obtained by conditioning on the latent variables) is found to be inappropriate, whereas the DIC computed using the integrated likelihood (obtained by integrating out the latent variables) seems to perform well. In view of this, we propose fast algorithms for computing the DIC based on the integrated likelihood for a variety of high- dimensional latent variable models. Through three empirical applications we show that the DICs based on the integrated likelihoods have much smaller numerical standard errors compared to the DICs based on the conditional likelihoods.

On Assessing Binary Regression Models Based on Ungrouped Data
Biometrics 000, 1{18 DOI: 000 000 0000 On Assessing Binary Regression Models Based on Ungrouped Data Chunling Lu Division of Global Health, Brigham and Women's Hospital & Department of Global Health and Social Medicine Harvard University, Boston, U.S. email: chunling [email protected] and Yuhong Yang School of Statistics, University of Minnesota, Minnesota, U.S. email: [email protected] Summary: Assessing a binary regression model based on ungrouped data is a commonly encountered but very challenging problem. Although tests, such as Hosmer-Lemeshow test and le Cessie-van Houwelingen test, have been devised and widely used in applications, they often have low power in detecting lack of fit and not much theoretical justification has been made on when they can work well. In this paper, we propose a new approach based on a cross validation voting system to address the problem. In addition to a theoretical guarantee that the probabilities of type I and II errors both converge to zero as the sample size increases for the new method under proper conditions, our simulation results demonstrate that it performs very well. Key words: Goodness of fit; Hosmer-Lemeshow test; Model assessment; Model selection diagnostics. This paper has been submitted for consideration for publication in Biometrics Goodness of Fit for Ungrouped Data 1 1. Introduction 1.1 Motivation Parametric binary regression is one of the most widely used statistical tools in real appli- cations. A central component in parametric regression is assessment of a candidate model before accepting it as a satisfactory description of the data. In that regard, goodness of fit tests are needed to reveal significant lack-of-fit of the model to assess (MTA), if any. -

Chapter 4: Model Adequacy Checking
Chapter 4: Model Adequacy Checking In this chapter, we discuss some introductory aspect of model adequacy checking, including: • Residual Analysis, • Residual plots, • Detection and treatment of outliers, • The PRESS statistic • Testing for lack of fit. The major assumptions that we have made in regression analysis are: • The relationship between the response Y and the regressors is linear, at least approximately. • The error term ε has zero mean. • The error term ε has constant varianceσ 2 . • The errors are uncorrelated. • The errors are normally distributed. Assumptions 4 and 5 together imply that the errors are independent. Recall that assumption 5 is required for hypothesis testing and interval estimation. Residual Analysis: The residuals , , , have the following important properties: e1 e2 L en (a) The mean of is 0. ei (b) The estimate of population variance computed from the n residuals is: n n 2 2 ∑()ei−e ∑ei ) 2 = i=1 = i=1 = SS Re s = σ n − p n − p n − p MS Re s (c) Since the sum of is zero, they are not independent. However, if the number of ei residuals ( n ) is large relative to the number of parameters ( p ), the dependency effect can be ignored in an analysis of residuals. Standardized Residual: The quantity = ei ,i = 1,2, , n , is called d i L MS Re s standardized residual. The standardized residuals have mean zero and approximately unit variance. A large standardized residual ( > 3 ) potentially indicates an outlier. d i Recall that e = (I − H )Y = (I − H )(X β + ε )= (I − H )ε Therefore, / Var()e = var[]()I − H ε = (I − H )var(ε )(I −H ) = σ 2 ()I − H . -

This paper explores the respective effectiveness of six multivariate methods: multiple hypotheses testing, supervised extensions of principal (PCA) and independent components analysis (ICA), discriminant partial least squares, linear logistic regression and classification trees. Each method has been adapted in order to provide a biomarker score for each zone of the spectrum. These scores aim at giving to the biologist indications on which metabolites of the analyzed biofluid are potentially affected by a stressor factor of interest (e.g. toxicity of a drug, presence of a given disease or therapeutic effect of a drug). The applications of the six methods to samples of 60 and 200 spectra issued from a semi-artificial database allowed to evaluate their respective properties. In particular, their sensitivities and false discovery rates (FDR) are illustrated through receiver operating characteristics curves (ROC) and the resulting identifications are used to show their specificities and relative advantages.The paper recommends to discard two methods for biomarker identification: the PCA showing a general low efficiency and the CART which is very sensitive to noise. -

In many network meta-analyses, some of the constituent studies may have markedly different characteristics from the others, and may be influential enough to change the overall results. The inclusion of these “outlying” studies might lead to biases, yielding misleading results. In this article, we propose effective methods for detecting outlying and influential studies in a frequentist framework. In particular, we propose suitable influence measures for network meta-analysis models that involve missing outcomes and adjust the degree of freedoms appropriately. We propose three influential measures by a leave-one-trial-out cross-validation scheme: (1) comparison-specific studentized residual, (2) relative change measure for covariance matrix of the comparative effectiveness parameters, (3) relative change measure for heterogeneity covariance matrix. -

Bayesian Methods: Review of Generalized Linear Models
Bayesian Methods: Review of Generalized Linear Models RYAN BAKKER University of Georgia ICPSR Day 2 Bayesian Methods: GLM [1] Likelihood and Maximum Likelihood Principles Likelihood theory is an important part of Bayesian inference: it is how the data enter the model. • The basis is Fisher’s principle: what value of the unknown parameter is “most likely” to have • generated the observed data. Example: flip a coin 10 times, get 5 heads. MLE for p is 0.5. • This is easily the most common and well-understood general estimation process. • Bayesian Methods: GLM [2] Starting details: • – Y is a n k design or observation matrix, θ is a k 1 unknown coefficient vector to be esti- × × mated, we want p(θ Y) (joint sampling distribution or posterior) from p(Y θ) (joint probabil- | | ity function). – Define the likelihood function: n L(θ Y) = p(Y θ) | i| i=1 Y which is no longer on the probability metric. – Our goal is the maximum likelihood value of θ: θˆ : L(θˆ Y) L(θ Y) θ Θ | ≥ | ∀ ∈ where Θ is the class of admissable values for θ. Bayesian Methods: GLM [3] Likelihood and Maximum Likelihood Principles (cont.) Its actually easier to work with the natural log of the likelihood function: • `(θ Y) = log L(θ Y) | | We also find it useful to work with the score function, the first derivative of the log likelihood func- • tion with respect to the parameters of interest: ∂ `˙(θ Y) = `(θ Y) | ∂θ | Setting `˙(θ Y) equal to zero and solving gives the MLE: θˆ, the “most likely” value of θ from the • | parameter space Θ treating the observed data as given. -
