Robust Inference Based on Quasi- likelihoods for Generalized Linear Models and Longitudinal Data
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we introduce and develop robust versions of quasilikelihood functions for model selection via an analysis-of-deviance type of procedure in generalized linear models and longitudinal data analysis. These robust functions are built upon natural classes of robust estimators and can be seen as weighted versions of their classical counterparts. The asymptotic theory of these test statistics is studied and their robustness properties are assessed for both generalized linear models and longitudinal data analysis. The proposed class of test statistics yields reliable inference even under model contamination. The analysis of a real data set completes the article.

The Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models
In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...

متن کاملPresentation of quasi-linear piecewise selected models simultaneously with designing of bump-less optimal robust controller for nonlinear vibration control of composite plates
The idea of using quasi-linear piecewise models has been established on the decomposition of complicated nonlinear systems, simultaneously designing with local controllers. Since the proper performance and the final system close loop stability are vital in multi-model controllers designing, the main problem in multi-model controllers is the number of the local models and their position not payi...
