This paper first extends the theory of almost stochastic dominance (ASD) to the first four orders. We then establish some equivalent relationships for the first four orders of the ASD. Using these results, we prove formally that the ASD definition modified by Tzeng et al.\ (2012) does not...

This paper establishes some equivalent relationships for the first three orders of the almost stochastic dominance (ASD). Using these results, we first prove formally that the ASD definition modified by Tzeng et al. (2012) does not possess any hierarchy property. Thereafter, we conclude that...

Inference for variance components in linear mixed models of ANOVA type, including estimation and testing, has been investigated when the number of fixed effects is fixed. However, for high-dimensional data, this number is large and would be regarded as a divergent value as the sample size goes...

In this paper, from the estimating equation-based sufficient dimension reduction method in the literature, its robust version is proposed to alleviate the impact from outliers. To achieve this, a robust nonparametric regression estimator is suggested. The estimator is plugged in the estimating...

<Para ID="Par1">This paper is concerned about robust comparison of two regression curves. Most of the procedures in the literature are least-squares-based methods with local polynomial approximation to nonparametric regression. However, the efficiency of these methods is adversely affected by outlying...</para>

This paper aims at investigating model checking for parametric models with response missing at random which is a more general missing mechanism than missing completely at random. Different from existing approaches, two tests have normal distributions as the limiting null distributions no matter...

To alleviate the computational burden of making the relevant estimation algorithms stable for nonlinear and semiparametric regression models with, particularly, high-dimensional data, a transformation-based method combining sufficient dimension reduction approach is proposed. To this end,...

Sufficient dimension reduction is a body of theory and methods for reducing the dimensionality of predictors while preserving information on regressions. In this paper we propose a sparse dimension reduction method to perform interpretable dimension reduction. It is designed for situations in...

Dimension reduction in semiparametric regressions includes construction of informative linear combinations and selection of contributing predictors. To reduce the predictor dimension in semiparametric regressions, we propose an &ell;<sub>1</sub>-minimization of sliced inverse regression with the Dantzig...
