Quasi‐Independence with Biomedical Examples

摘要: The quasi-independence model is a generalization of the independence for two-dimensional contingency table. It states that particular subset cells satisfies structure whereby cell expected count product row effect and column effect. often used square tables (number rows equal number columns), relevant being all not falling on main diagonal. This article also discusses connections with loglinear models, extension to multidimensional tables, inference testing fit, applications relationships other models. Keywords: agreement; Bradley–Terry model; exact tests; loglinear model; quasi-symmetry model; square tables; structural zeros
