复合似然与随机逼近的结合AI 解读

A composite likelihood is an inference function derived by multiplying a set of likelihood components. This approach provides a flexible framework for drawing inferences when the likelihood function of a statistical model is computationally intractable. While composite likelihood has computational advantages, it can still be demanding when dealing with numerous likelihood components and a large sample size. This paper tackles this challenge by employing an approximation of…

有序变量间偏关联的量化、可视化与假设检验AI 解读

Partial association refers to the relationship between variables Y1,Y2,…,YK while adjusting for a set of covariates X={X1,…,Xp}. To assess such an association when Yk’s are recorded on ordinal scales, a classical approach is to use partial correlation between the latent continuous variables. This so-called polychoric correlation is inadequate, as it requires multivariate normality and it only reflects a linear association. We propose a new framework for studying…

广义线性潜变量模型的有界影响稳健估计AI 解读

Latent variable models are used for analyzing multivariate data. Recently, generalized linear latent variable models for categorical, metric, and mixed-type responses estimated via maximum likelihood (ML) have been proposed. Model deviations, such as data contamination, are shown analytically, using the influence function and through a simulation study, to seriously affect ML estimation. This article proposes a robust estimator that is made consistent using the basic…
