Estimation of Generalized Linear Latent Variable Models
Generalized Linear Latent Variable Models (GLLVM), as de ned in Bartholomew and Knott (1999) enable modelling of relationships between manifest and latent variables. They extend structural equation modelling techniques, which are powerful tools in the social sciences. However, because of the complexity of the log-likelihood function of a GLLVM, an approximation such as numerical integration mus...
متن کاملBounded-Influence Robust Estimation in Generalized Linear Latent Variable Models
Latent variable models are used for analyzing multivariate data. Recently, generalized linear latent variable models for categorical, metric, and mixed-type responses estimated via maximum likelihood (ML) have been proposed. Model deviations, such as data contamination, are shown analytically, using the influence function and through a simulation study, to seriously affect ML estimation. This a...
متن کاملGeneralized Linear Latent Variable Models for time dependent data
Latent variable models are a fundamental tool for the analysis of multivariate data. The importance of such models is due to the crucial role that latent variables play in many fields, e.g. psychological and educational, socioeconomic, biometric, where often constructs are not directly observable. In these contexts, the different nature of the observable variables often causes theoretical and p...
متن کاملParameter constraints in generalized linear latent variable models
Parameter constraints in generalized linear latent variable models are discussed. Both linear equality and inequality constraints are considered. Maximum likelihood estimators for the parameters of the constrained model and corrected standard errors are derived. A significant reduction in the dimension of the optimization problem is achieved with the proposed methodology for fitting models subj...
متن کاملExplicit estimating equations for semiparametric generalized linear latent variable models
We study generalized linear latent variable models without requiring a distributional assumption of the latent variables. Using a geometric approach, we derive consistent semiparametric estimators. We demonstrate that these models have a property which is similar to that of a sufficient complete statistic, which enables us to simplify the estimating procedure and explicitly to formulate the sem...
