✦ Synopsis

This article discusses two different approaches to estimate the difficulty parameters (fixed effects parameters) and the variance of latent traits (variance components) in the mixed Ranch model. The first one is the generalized estimating equations (GEE2) which uses an approximation of the marginal likelihood to derive the joint moments whilst the second approach uses the maximum of the approximate likelihood. We illustrate these methods with a simulation study and with an analysis of real data from a quality of life.

In view of the cumbersome and often intractable numerical integrations required for a full likelihood analysis, several suggestions have been made recently for approximate inference in generalized linear mixed models and other nonlinear variance component models. For example, we refer to the penaliz

The trunsored model, which is a new incomplete data model regarded as a unified model of the censored and truncated models in lifetime analysis, can not only estimate the ratio of the fragile population to the mixed fragile and durable populations or the cured and fatal mixed populations, but also t
