In this paper we develop a dynamic model for integer counts to capture the dis- creteness of price changes for financial transaction prices. Our model rests on an autoregressive multinomial component for the direction of the price change and a dynamic count data component for the size of the...

The reverse logit has been used with some success to predict trip demand, despite the lack of a theoretically plausible foundation. In this article, it is shown that the reverse logit can be derived from demand theory. Specifically, when demand is modeled with a fixed effects Poisson estimator,...

It is well known that the bridge regression (with tuning parameter less or equal to 1) gives asymptotically unbiased estimates of the nonzero regression parameters while shrinking smaller regression parameters to zero to achieve variable selection. Despite advances in the last several decades in...

Joint modeling techniques have become a popular strategy for studying the association between a response and one or more longitudinal covariates. Motivated by the GenIMS study, where it is of interest to model the event of survival using censored longitudinal biomarkers, a joint model is...
