Springer ISS-2012 Proceedings - Longitudinal Data Analysis

This specialized proceedings volume from Springer presents a collection of nine selected papers from the 2012 International Symposium in Statistics held at Memorial University. Designed for researchers and professionals in statistical analysis, this text addresses complex challenges in longitudinal data studies. The content is organized into three distinct areas of focus to provide a comprehensive look at modern statistical methodologies. It covers longitudinal data subject to measurement errors, provides insights into incomplete longitudinal data analysis, and explores methods for inferences regarding longitudinal data subject to outliers. Because inferences in measurement error, missing value, or outlier models are not adequately discussed in standard longitudinal independence setups, this volume serves as a necessary resource for understanding these specific complexities. It offers a deep dive into the mathematical and practical aspects of handling data that does not follow ideal conditions, making it a valuable addition to the Lecture Notes in Statistics series.
