In this paper, the authors propose the joint location, scale and skewness models when the data set under consideration involves asymmetric outcomes,and consider the problem of variable selection for our proposed models. Based on an efficient unified penalized likelihood method, the consistency and the oracle property of the penalized estimators are established. The authors develop the variable selection procedure for the proposed joint models, which can efficiently simultaneously estimate and select important variables in location model, scale model and skewness model. Simulation studies and body mass index data analysis are presented to illustrate the proposed methods.展开更多

Two filtering algorithms are designed both of which are based on mixture Kalman filter. These algorithms are particularly useful when the longitudinal ts are sparse. The authors also propose a globally convergent algorithm for parameter estimation of MESSM which can be used to locate the initial value of parameters for local while more efficient algorithms. Simulation examples are carried out which validate the efficacy of the proposed approaches. A data set from the clinical trial is investigated and a smaller mean square error is achieved compared to the existing results in literatures.展开更多
