Bias correction in generalised linear mixed models with a single component of dispersion
单一离散分量广义线性混合模型的偏差校正
General expressions are derived for the asymptotic biases in three approximate estimators of regression coefficients and variance component, for small values of the variance component, in generalised linear mixed models with canonical link function and a single source of extraneous variation. The estimators involve first and second order Laplace expansions of the integrated likelihood and a related procedure known as penalised quasi-likelihood. Numerical studies of a series…
