Canonical Analysis of Contingency Tables by Maximum Likelihood
列联表典型分析的最大似然方法
Canonical analysis has often been employed instead of log-linear models to analyze the relationship of two polytomous random variables; however, until the last few years, analysis has been informal. In this article, models are examined that place nontrivial restrictions on the values of the canonical parameters so that a parsimonious description of association is obtained. Maximum likelihood is used to obtain parameter estimates for these restricted models. Approximate…
