The aim of this work was to propose inferential methods to describe natural history of the pre-diagnosis phase of dementia. During this phase, which can last around fifteen years, the cognitive decline trajectories are nonlinear and heterogeneous between subjects. Because heterogeneity and nonlinearity, we chose a random changepoint mixed model to describe these trajectories. A first part of this work was to propose a testing procedure to assess the existence of a random changepoint. Indeed, in some subpopulations, the cognitive decline seems smooth and the question of the existence of a changepoint itself araises. This question is methodologically challenging because of identifiability issues on some parameters under the null hypothesis t...
