This paper proposes a novel shrinkage estimator for high-dimensional covariance matrices by extending the Oracle Approximating Shrinkage (OAS) of Chen et al. (2009) to target the diagonal elements of ...

This section provides an overview of a likelihood-based approach to general linear mixed models. This approach simplifies and unifies many common statistical analyses, including those involving ...

X ij = [x ij1, ... , x ijp]' The Generalized Estimating Equation of Liang and Zeger (1986) for estimating the p ×1 vector of regression parameters is an extension of the independence estimating ...
