On the determination of quasilikelihood estimates
Yan-Xia Lin
Abstract:
When the quasilikelihood method is used to estimate unknown parameter(s) in
a model, one
of the standard procedures is to solve an equation, called quasi-score
normal equation,
associated with a quasi-score estimating function. A problem facing by
that procedure is
how to determine which root would be a reasonable estimate of the unknown
parameter(s) if
the quasi-score normal equation yields more than one roots. In this paper
we give a
necessary rule for the determination.
