%0 Book Section %T Inference for three-dimensional contingency tables based on phi 1-divergences publisher Springer %D 2004 %U 978-3-540-22264-4 %@ https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/53196 %X In this paper, we consider independence models for three-dimensional tables under multinomial sampling. We use the restricted minimum phi-divergence estimator in a phi-divergence statistic, which is the basis of some new statistics, for solving the classical problems of testing different models in relation to the independence in three dimensional contingence tables. %~
