The authors develop empirical likelihood (EL) based methods of inference for a common mean using data from several independent but nonhomogeneous populations. For point estimation, they propose a maximum empirical likelihood (MEL) estimator and show that it is &-consistent and asymptotically optimal
## Abstract It is common to have missing genotypes in practical genetic studies, but the exact underlying missing data mechanism is generally unknown to the investigators. Although some statistical methods can handle missing data, they usually assume that genotypes are missing at random, that is, a
In this paper, we employ the method of empirical likelihood to construct confidence intervals for M-functionals in the presence of auxiliary information under a nonparametric setting. The modified empirical likelihood confidence intervals which make use of the knowledge of auxiliary information are
