Although it is common practice to fit a complex Bayesian model using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, we provide an alternative sampling-based method to fit a two-stage hierarchical model in ...

In this article, we obtain an estimator of the regression parameters for generalized linear models, using the Jacobian technique. We restrict ourselves to the natural exponential family for the ...

Many response variables are handled poorly by regression models when the errors are assumed to be normally distributed. For example, modeling the state damaged/not damaged of cells after treated with ...
