Linear mixed model (LMM) analysis has been recently used extensively for estimating additive genetic variances and narrow-sense heritability in many genomic studies. While the LMM analysis is computationally less intensive than the Bayesian algorithms, it remains infeasible for large-scale...

Outer Products and Stochastic Approximation Algorithms in a Heavy-tailed and Long-range Dependent Setting
DownloadFall 2015
Classical time-series theories are mainly concerned with the statistical analysis of light-tailed and short-range dependent stationary linear processes. Applications in network theory and financial mathematics lead us to consider time series models with heavy tails and long memory. Heavy-tailed...
