Bayesian optimal designs for binary longitudinal responses analyzed with mixed logistic regression describing a linear time effect are considered. In order to find the optimal number and allocations of time points, for different priors, cost constraints and covariance structures of the random...

The theoretical and empirical innovation literature stresses the importance of regional factors and location conditions for location choice of firms and their innovation success. Innovation activities are not equally distributed in space because agglomeration effects and specific regional...

We propose a new methodology that does not assume a prior specification of the statistical properties of the measurement errors and treats all sources as noisy measures of some underlying true value. The unobservable true value can be represented as a weighted average of all available measures,...

In many studies, a primary endpoint and longitudinal measures of a continuous response are collected for each participant along with other covariates, and the association between the primary endpoint and features of the longitudinal profiles is of interest. One challenge is that the features of...
