The approach is mainly targeted for surveillance systems (e.g., Ambient Assisted Living [33]) to model trajectories of persons or to model routines within sensor environments.
Bezier curve is defined by control points having suitable geometric interpretation of modeling and having the ability to model trajectories variability [42].
Linear mixed effects models were used to model trajectories of weight and height-for-age z-scores.
This is applicable to any analysis fitting multiple, correlated genetic effects, whether effects for individual traits or sets of random regression coefficients to model trajectories.
No fitness costs other than those imparted by female-specific lethality were included, and thus, modeled trajectories represent the potential distribution of trajectories given stochastic variation in population sex ratio and subsequent fsRIDL allele inheritance alone.
In contrast, a joint latent class mixed model uses all of the information from the quantitative cognitive score(s) and can model trajectories and co-occurring events, such as death, in multiple sub-populations.
We performed the main data analysis in three steps: modeling BMI trajectory, estimating trajectory characteristics, and examining correlations and predictors of trajectory characteristics.
The continuous measure of severity of migraine headache was modelled using mixed model trajectory analysis (MMTA), a form of hierarchical linear modeling.
