loglinb3: Loglinear Model for Three Binary Responses
Description
Fits a loglinear model to three binary responses.
Usage
loglinb3(exchangeable = FALSE, zero = c("u12", "u13", "u23"))
Arguments
exchangeable
Logical.
If TRUE, the three marginal probabilities are constrained to
be equal.
zero
Which linear/additive predictors are modelled as
intercept-only?
A NULL means none.
See CommonVGAMffArguments for further information.
Value
An object of class "vglmff" (see vglmff-class).
The object is used by modelling functions such as vglm,
rrvglm and vgam.
When fitted, the fitted.values slot of the object contains the
eight joint probabilities, labelled as $(Y_1,Y_2,Y_3)$
= (0,0,0), (0,0,1), (0,1,0), (0,1,1), (1,0,0), (1,0,1), (1,1,0),
(1,1,1), respectively.
Details
The model is $P(Y_1=y_1,Y_2=y_2,Y_3=y_3) =$
$$\exp(u_0+u_1 y_1+u_2 y_2+u_3 y_3+u_{12} y_1 y_2+
u_{13} y_1 y_3+u_{23} y_2 y_3)$$
where $y_1$, $y_2$ and $y_3$ are 0
or 1, and the parameters are $u_1$, $u_2$,
$u_3$, $u_{12}$, $u_{13}$,
$u_{23}$.
The normalizing parameter $u_0$ can be expressed as a
function of the other parameters.
Note that a third-order association parameter,
$u_{123}$ for the product $y_1 y_2 y_3$,
is assumed to be zero for this family function.
The linear/additive predictors are
$(\eta_1,\eta_2,\ldots,\eta_6)^T =
(u_1,u_2,u_3,u_{12},u_{13},u_{23})^T$.
