Bias-Corrected Maximum Likelihood Estimator of a Log Common Odds Ratio
共同优势比对数的偏差修正极大似然估计
A bias-correction factor for the maximum likelihood estimator of the log common odds ratio for sparse data is derived, which is applicable when the design is balanced and/or when the number of strata is large. The corrected maximum likelihood estimator is practically unbiased and its mean squared error is smaller than that of the uncorrected maximum likelihood estimator. The correction factor for the maximum likelihood estimator approaches one as strata sizes increase.…
