Quasi-Likelihood Regression with Unknown Link and Variance Functions
链接函数与方差函数未知的拟似然回归
We consider the multiple regression model E(y) = μ, μ = g(x T β), var(y) — [sgrave]2(μ) with predictors x, link function g, and variance function [sgrave]2(·). The aim is to reduce the assumptions in a fully parametric generalized linear model or a quasi-likelihood model by allowing the link and the variance functions to be unknown but smooth. These functions are then estimated nonparametrically, and the estimates are substituted into the quasi-likelihood function. We…
