Minimum Phi-Divergence Estimators and Phi-Divergence Test Statistics in Contingency Tables with Symmetry Structure: An Overview
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the last years minimum phi-divergence estimators (MφE) and phi-divergence test statistics (φTS) have been introduced as a very good alternative to classical likelihood ratio test and maximum likelihood estimator for different statistical problems. The main purpose of this paper is to present an overview of the main results presented until now in contingency tables with symmetry structure on the basis of (MφE) and (φTS).

A New Family of BAN Estimators for Polytomous Logistic Regression Models based on phi- Divergence Measures
In this paper we study polytomous logistic regression model and the asymptotic properties of the minimum φ-divergence estimators for this model. A simulation study is conducted to analyze the behavior of these estimators as function of the power-divergence measure φ(λ). AMS 2001 Subject Classification Primary 62H15 · Secondary 62H17
متن کاملA Note on Penalized Power-Divergence Test Statistics
In this paper, penalized power-divergence test statistics have been defined and their exact size properties to test a nested sequence of log-linear models have been compared with ordinary power-divergence test statistics for various penalization, λ and main effect values. Since the ordinary and penalized powerdivergence test statistics have the same asymptotic distribution, comparisons have bee...
متن کاملEmpirical phi-divergence test statistics for testing simple and composite null hypotheses
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce first a new family of empirical test statistics for testing a simple null hypothesis when the vector of parameters of interest are defined through a specific set of unbiased estimating functions. This family of test statistics is based on a distance between two probability vectors, with the first probability vector obtained by maximizing the empiri...
متن کاملGoodness-of-fit Tests and Minimum Power Divergence Estimators for Survival Data
Power-divergence statistics are proposed for grouped survival data. They are analogous to the power-divergence family of statistics proposed and studied in detail by Read and Cressie (1988) and Cressie and Read (1984) for contingency tables. The proposed statistics are useful for testing validity of parametric model assumptions in analyses of survival data. It is shown that these statistics hav...
متن کاملPlain Answers to Several Questions about Association/Independence Structure in Complete/Incomplete Contingency Tables
In this paper, we develop some results based on Relational model (Klimova, et al. 2012) which permits a decomposition of logarithm of expected cell frequencies under a log-linear type model. These results imply plain answers to several questions in the context of analyzing of contingency tables. Moreover, determination of design matrix and hypothesis-induced matrix of the model will be discusse...
