On composite marginal likelihoods

C Varin - Asta advances in statistical analysis, 2008 - Springer
Composite marginal likelihoods are pseudolikelihoods constructed by compounding
marginal densities. In several applications, they are convenient surrogates for the ordinary …

Space–time modelling of extreme events

R Huser, AC Davison - Journal of the Royal Statistical Society …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Max-stable processes are the natural analogues of the generalized extreme value
distribution when modelling extreme events in space and time. Under suitable conditions …

The maximum approximate composite marginal likelihood (MACML) estimation of multinomial probit-based unordered response choice models

CR Bhat - Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2011 - Elsevier
The likelihood functions of multinomial probit (MNP)-based choice models entail the
evaluation of analytically-intractable integrals. As a result, such models are usually …

A latent variable representation of count data models to accommodate spatial and temporal dependence: Application to predicting crash frequency at intersections

M Castro, R Paleti, CR Bhat - Transportation research part B …, 2012 - Elsevier
This paper proposes a reformulation of count models as a special case of generalized
ordered-response models in which a single latent continuous variable is partitioned into …

Estimating space and space-time covariance functions for large data sets: a weighted composite likelihood approach

M Bevilacqua, C Gaetan, J Mateu… - Journal of the American …, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
In this article, we propose two methods for estimating space and space-time covariance
functions from a Gaussian random field, based on the composite likelihood idea. The first …

Examining the influence of stop level infrastructure and built environment on bus ridership in Montreal

V Chakour, N Eluru - Journal of Transport Geography, 2016 - Elsevier
We studied transit ridership from the perspective of the transit provider, with the objective of
quantifying the influence of transit system operational attributes, transportation system …

A spatial generalized ordered response model to examine highway crash injury severity

M Castro, R Paleti, CR Bhat - Accident Analysis & Prevention, 2013 - Elsevier
This paper proposes a flexible econometric structure for injury severity analysis at the level
of individual crashes that recognizes the ordinal nature of injury severity categories, allows …

A State-Space Perspective on Modelling and Inference for Online Skill Rating

S Duffield, S Power, L Rimella - arXiv preprint arXiv:2308.02414, 2023 - arxiv.org
This paper offers a comprehensive review of the main methodologies used for skill rating in
competitive sports. We advocate for a state-space model perspective, wherein players' skills …

The role of copulas in the housing crisis

DM Zimmer - Review of Economics and Statistics, 2012 - direct.mit.edu
Due to its simplicity and familiarity, the Gaussian copula is popular in calculating risk in
collaterized debt obligations, but it imposes asymptotic independence such that extreme …
