✦ Synopsis


We give polynomial time algorithms for random sampling from a set of contingency tables, which is the set of m = n matrices with given row and column sums, provided the row and column sums are sufficiently large with respect to m, n. We use this to approximately count the number of such matrices. These problems are of interest in Statistics and Combinatorics.

This paper considers contingency tables in which the marginal frequencies for one variable are all I. This could occur with two-category binary data or when a continuous variable is treated in categorical fashion. Some results concerning the expectation of goodneea-of-fit statistics are reported. In

If only the marginal counts of a contingency table are known, inference regarding a statistic e.g. like the log odds ratio is still possible. In the following a 2\*2 contingency table and the log odds ratio as the interesting statistic are assumed, although the methodology is more general. Given the
