Statistical Modeling
Statisticians within the Statistical Analysis Group, the Social and Behavioral Analysis Division, and the Biosciences Division design statistical methods for the analysis of transportation-related data and provide consulting services covering a broad range of quantitative research. Some areas of specialty are listed below:
- Poisson/negative binomial regression models for handling extra variability often encountered in observational studies
- Statistical methods for rates
- Methods for handling missing exposure data
- Development of Bayesian hierarchical models based on output from Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation
- Analysis of categorical and clustered categorical data typically found in transportation-related databases
- Statistical modeling of accident data and travel-behavior survey data arising from complex sample surveys that include clustering, stratification, and weights
