Generalized Quasi-Likelihood Ratio Tests for Semiparametric Analysis of Covariance Models in Longitudinal Data
纵向数据半参数协方差分析模型的广义准似然比检验
We model generalized longitudinal data from multiple treatment groups by a class of semiparametric analysis of covariance models, which take into account the parametric effects of time dependent covariates and the nonparametric time effects. In these models, the treatment effects are represented by nonparametric functions of time and we propose a generalized quasi-likelihood ratio test procedure to test if these functions are identical. Our estimation procedure is based on…
