Journal Article
Smith, A. D. A. C., Emmett, P. M., Newby, P. K., & Northstone, K. (2011). A comparison of dietary patterns derived by cluster and principal components analysis in a UK cohort of children. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 65(10), 1102-1109. https://doi.org/10.1038/ejcn.2011.96

Background/Objectives: The objective of this study was to identify dietary patterns in a cohort of 7-year-old children through cluster analysis, compare with patterns derived by principal components analysis (PCA), and investigate associations with s...

Streamlined variance calculations for semiparametric mixed models (2007)
Journal Article
Smith, A. D. A. C., & Wand, M. P. (2008). Streamlined variance calculations for semiparametric mixed models. Statistics in Medicine, 27(3), 435-448. https://doi.org/10.1002/sim.2925

Semiparametric mixed model analysis benefits from variability estimates such as standard errors of effect estimates and variability bars to accompany curve estimates. We show how the underlying variance calculations can be done extremely efficiently... Read More about Streamlined variance calculations for semiparametric mixed models.
