Scale mixture of skew‐normal linear mixed models with within‐subject serial dependence

FL Schumacher, VH Lachos, LA Matos - Statistics in medicine, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
In longitudinal studies, repeated measures are collected over time and hence they tend to
be serially correlated. These studies are commonly analyzed using linear mixed models …

A robust nonlinear mixed-effects model for COVID-19 deaths data

FL Schumacher, CS Ferreira, MO Prates… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
The analysis of complex longitudinal data such as COVID-19 deaths is challenging due to
several inherent features:(i) Similarly-shaped profiles with different decay patterns;(ii) …

Approximate inferences for nonlinear mixed effects models with scale mixtures of skew-normal distributions

FL Schumacher, DK Dey, VH Lachos - Journal of Statistical Theory and …, 2021 - Springer
Nonlinear mixed effects models have received a great deal of attention in the statistical
literature in recent years because of their flexibility in handling longitudinal studies, including …

Robustifying Marginal Linear Models for Correlated Responses Using a Constructive Multivariate Huber Distribution

R Mohammadi, I Kazemi - … Analysis and Data Mining: The ASA …, 2025 - Wiley Online Library
The marginal regression model is convenient for analyzing correlated responses, including
repeated measures and longitudinal data. This paper proposes a robust marginal linear …

A robust linear mixed-effects model for longitudinal data using an innovative multivariate skew-Huber distribution

R Mohammadi, I Kazemi - Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2022 - Elsevier
Conventional linear mixed-effects modeling is routinely challenging when the validity of
necessary assumptions is suspicious. In particular, robustifying model fitting is appealing in …

[PDF][PDF] skewlmm: An R package for robust estimation of linear mixed models based on scale mixture of skew-normal distributions

Linear mixed models are frequently used to analyze repeated measures data, because they
model flexibly the within-subject correlation often present in this type of data. Usually for …
