Alternative estimating procedures for multiple membership logit models with mixed effects: indirect inference and data cloning

Gottard, Anna; Calzolari, Giorgio - Dipartimento di Statistica, Informatica, Applicazioni … - 2014

Multiple-membership logit models with random effects are logit models for clustered binary data, where each statistical unit can belong to more than one group. For these models, the likelihood function is analytically intractable. We propose two different approaches for parameter estimation:...

Weighted Average Power Similar Tests for Structural Change for the Gaussian Linear Regression Model

Forchini, Giovanni - Department of Econometrics and Business Statistics, … - 2005

involve the numerical evaluation of (potentially) complicated integrals. In this paper we suggest a uniform Laplace … approximation to evaluate weighted average power test statistics for which a simple closed form does not exist. We also show that a …

Automated Likelihood Based Inference for Stochastic Volatility Models

Skaug, Hans J.; Yu, Jun - School of Economics, Singapore Management University - 2009

In this paper the Laplace approximation is used to perform classical and Bayesian analyses of univariate and … multivariate stochastic volatility (SV) models. We show that implementation of the Laplace approximation is greatly simplified by …
