Large Cluster Results for Two Parametric Multinomial Extra Variation Models
两种参数化多项超额变异模型的大簇结果
Two parametric extra variation models are considered. Approximate closed-form expressions are given for the Fisher information matrices. The expressions are useful in computing maximum likelihood estimates and obtaining large cluster efficiencies. A simulation study shows that the approximations perform very well even in clusters of moderate size. The models are applied in illustrative examples. A goodness-of-fit test is developed that is applicable even when the cluster…
