Robit Regression: A Simple Robust Alternative to Logistic and Probit Regression
Logistic and probit regression models are commonly used in practice to analyze binary response data, but the maximum likelihood estimators of these models are not robust to outliers. This paper considers a robit regression model, which replaces the normal distribution in the probit regression model with a t-distribution with a known or unknown number of degrees of freedom. It is shown that (i) ...
متن کاملConvergence rates for MCMC algorithms for a robust Bayesian binary regression model
Abstract: Most common regression models for analyzing binary random variables are logistic and probit regression models. However it is well known that the estimates of regression coefficients for these models are not robust to outliers [26]. The robit regression model [1, 16] is a robust alternative to the probit and logistic models. The robit model is obtained by replacing the normal (logistic...
متن کاملEfficient estimation of the link function parameter in a robust Bayesian binary regression model
It is known that the robit regression model for binary data is a robust alternative to the more popular probit and logistic models. The robit model is obtained by replacing the normal distribution in the probit regression model with the Student’s t distribution. Unlike the probit and logistic models, the robit link has an extra degrees of freedom (df) parameter. It is shown that in practice it ...
متن کاملEfficient estimation and prediction for the Bayesian binary spatial model with flexible link functions.
Spatial generalized linear mixed models (SGLMMs) are popular models for spatial data with a non-Gaussian response. Binomial SGLMMs with logit or probit link functions are often used to model spatially dependent binomial random variables. It is known that for independent binomial data, the robit regression model provides a more robust (against extreme observations) alternative to the more popula...
متن کاملThe Analysis of Bayesian Probit Regression of Binary and Polychotomous Response Data
The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...
