Risk Assessment via a Robust Probit Model, with Application to Toxicology
通过稳健 Probit 模型进行风险评估及其毒理学应用
Various frameworks have been suggested for assessing the risk associated with continuous toxicity outcomes. The first formulates the effect of exposure on the adverse effect via a simple normal model and then computes the risk function using tail probabilities from the standard normal distribution. Because this risk function depends heavily on the assumed model, it may be sensitive to model misspecification. Recently, a semiparametric approach that utilizes an alternative…
