    On the Asymptotic Distribution of Cook’s distance in Logistic Regression Models
    (Journal of Applied Statistics, 2009) Martín Apaolaza, Níriam; Pardo Llorente, Leandro
    It sometimes occurs that one or more components of the data exert a disproportionate influence on the model estimation. We need a reliable tool for identifying such troublesome cases in order to decide either eliminate from the sample, when the data collect was badly realized, or otherwise take care on the use of the model because the results could be affected by such components. Since a measure for detecting influential cases in linear regression setting was proposed by Cook [Detection of influential observations in linear regression, Technometrics 19 (1977), pp. 15–18.], apart from the same measure for other models, several new measures have been suggested as single-case diagnostics. For most of them some cutoff values have been recommended (see [D.A. Belsley, E. Kuh, and R.E. Welsch, Regression Diagnostics: Identifying Influential Data and Sources of Collinearity, 2nd ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, Chichester, Brisban, (2004).], for instance), however the lack of a quantile type cutoff for Cook's statistics has induced the analyst to deal only with index plots as worthy diagnostic tools. Focussed on logistic regression, the aim of this paper is to provide the asymptotic distribution of Cook's distance in order to look for a meaningful cutoff point for detecting influential and leverage observations.

    Homogeneity/Heterogeneity Hypotheses for Standardized Mortality Ratios Based on Minimum Power-divergence Estimators
    (Biometrical journal, 2009) Pardo Llorente, Leandro; Martín Apaolaza, Níriam
    This paper analyzes the power divergence estimators when homogeneity/heterogeneity hypotheses among Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) are taken into account. A Monte Carlo study shows that when the standard mortality rate is not external, that is it is estimated from the Sample data, these estimators have a good performance even for small sample sets and in particular the minimum chi-square estimators have a better behavior compared to the classical maximum likelihood estimators In order to make decisions under homogeneity/heterogeneity hypotheses of SNIPS we propose Some test-statistics which consider the minimum power divergence estimators Through a numerical example focused on SMRs of melanoma mortality ratios in different regions of the US, a homogeneity/heterogeneity study IS illustrated

    An extension of likelihood-ratio-test for testing linear hypotheses in the baseline-category logit model
    (Computational statistics and data analysis, 2008) Pardo Llorente, Leandro; Pardo Llorente, María del Carmen
    A new family of test statistics for testing linear hypotheses in baseline-category logit models is introduced and its asymptotic distribution is obtained. The new family is a natural extension of the classical likelihood ratio test. A simulation study is carried out to find new test statistics that offer an attractive alternative to the classical likelihood ratio test in terms of both exact size and exact power.

    Robust median estimator in logistic regression
    (Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 2008) Hobza, Pavel; Pardo Llorente, Leandro; Vajda, Igor
    This paper introduces a median estimator of the logistic regression parameters. It is defined as the classical L-1-estimator applied to continuous data Z(1),..., Z(n) obtained by a statistical smoothing of the original binary logistic regression observations Y-1,..., Y-n. Consistency and asymptotic normality of this estimator are proved. A method called enhancement is introduced which in some cases increases the efficiency of this estimator. Sensitivity to contaminations and leverage points is studied by simulations and compared in this manner with the sensitivity of some robust estimators previously introduced to the logistic regression. The new estimator appears to be more robust for larger sample sizes and higher levels of contamination.

    Cressie and Read power-divergences as influence measures for logistic regression models
    (Computational statistics and data analysis, 2006) Muñoz García, Joaquín; Muñoz Pichardo, Juan Manuel; Pardo Llorente, Leandro
    A sample version of the power-divergence measures of Cressie and Read is proposed for the influence analysis in the logistic regression model. Influence measures are obtained by quantifying the deviation between the sample distribution of an estimate obtained with all the observations and the sample distribution of the same estimate obtained without any observation. In particular, this approach is applied to three estimates of the model: the MLE of regression coefficients vector, the probabilities vector and the linear predictor of a future case. Some examples are considered to clarify the usefulness of the introduced diagnostics.
