Monotone spline-based nonparametric estimation of longitudinal data with mixture distributions
In the dissertation, a monotone spline-based nonparametric estimation method is proposed for analyzing longitudinal data with mixture distributions. The innovative and efficient algorithm combining the concept of projected Newton-Raphson algorithm with linear mixed model estimation method is develop...
