We consider a re-sampling scheme for estimation of the population parameters in the mixed effects nonlinear regression models of the type use for example in clinical pharmacokinetics, say. We provide an estimation procedure which {it recycles}, via random weighting, the relevant two-stage parameters estimates to construct consistent estimates of the sampling distribution of the various estimates. We establish the asymptotic consistency and asymptotic normality of the resampled estimates and demonstrate the applicability of the {it recycling} approach in a small simulation study and via example.

We develop a new Gibbs sampler for a linear mixed model with a Dirichlet process random effect term, which is easily extended to a generalized linear mixed model with a probit link function. Our Gibbs sampler exploits the properties of the multinomia
l and Dirichlet distributions, and is shown to be an improvement, in terms of operator norm and efficiency, over other commonly used MCMC algorithms. We also investigate methods for the estimation of the precision parameter of the Dirichlet process, finding that maximum likelihood may not be desirable, but a posterior mode is a reasonable approach. Examples are given to show how these models perform on real data. Our results complement both the theoretical basis of the Dirichlet process nonparametric prior and the computational work that has been done to date.
In this study, we propose shrinkage methods based on {it generalized ridge regression} (GRR) estimation which is suitable for both multicollinearity and high dimensional problems with small number of samples (large $p$, small $n$). Also, it is obtain
ed theoretical properties of the proposed estimators for Low/High Dimensional cases. Furthermore, the performance of the listed estimators is demonstrated by both simulation studies and real-data analysis, and compare its performance with existing penalty methods. We show that the proposed methods compare well to competing regularization techniques.
Complex biological processes are usually experimented along time among a collection of individuals. Longitudinal data are then available and the statistical challenge is to better understand the underlying biological mechanisms. The standard statisti
cal approach is mixed-effects model, with regression functions that are now highly-developed to describe precisely the biological processes (solutions of multi-dimensional ordinary differential equations or of partial differential equation). When there is no analytical solution, a classical estimation approach relies on the coupling of a stochastic version of the EM algorithm (SAEM) with a MCMC algorithm. This procedure needs many evaluations of the regression function which is clearly prohibitive when a time-consuming solver is used for computing it. In this work a meta-model relying on a Gaussian process emulator is proposed to replace this regression function. The new source of uncertainty due to this approximation can be incorporated in the model which leads to what is called a mixed meta-model. A control on the distance between the maximum likelihood estimates in this mixed meta-model and the maximum likelihood estimates obtained with the exact mixed model is guaranteed. Eventually, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the efficiency of this approach.
We present new results for consistency of maximum likelihood estimators with a focus on multivariate mixed models. Our theory builds on the idea of using subsets of the full data to establish consistency of estimators based on the full data. It requi
res neither that the data consist of independent observations, nor that the observations can be modeled as a stationary stochastic process. Compared to existing asymptotic theory using the idea of subsets we substantially weaken the assumptions, bringing them closer to what suffices in classical settings. We apply our theory in two multivariate mixed models for which it was unknown whether maximum likelihood estimators are consistent. The models we consider have non-stochastic predictors and multivariate responses which are possibly mixed-type (some discrete and some continuous).
