Weighted pairwise likelihood estimation for a general class of random effects models.
Models with random effects/latent variables are widely used for capturing unobserved heterogeneity in multilevel/hierarchical data and account for associations in multivariate data. The estimation of those models becomes cumbersome as the number of latent variables increases due to high-dimensional integrations involved. Composite likelihood is a pseudo-likelihood that combines lower-order marg...
متن کاملa weighted pairwise likelihood approach to multivariate ar(1) models
in this paper, the use of weighted pairwise likelihood instead of the full likelihood in estimating the parameters of the multivariate ar(1) is investigated. a closed formula for typical elements of the godambe information(sandwich information) is presented. some efficiency calculations are also given to discuss the feasibility andcomputational advantages of the weighted pairwise likelihood app...

متن کاملPairwise likelihood estimation for factor analysis models with ordinal data
Pairwise maximum likelihood (PML) estimation method is developed for factor analysis models with ordinal data and tted both in an exploratory and con rmatory set-up. The performance of the method is studied via simulations and comparisons with full information maximum likelihood (FIML) and three-stage limited information estimation methods, namely the robust unweighted least squares (3S-RULS) a...
متن کاملA comparison of algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Spatial GLM models
In spatial generalized linear mixed models, spatial correlation is assumed by adding normal latent variables to the model. In these models because of the non-Gaussian spatial response and the presence of latent variables the likelihood function cannot usually be given in a closed form, thus the maximum likelihood approach is very challenging. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce two n...
