Density ratio model selection
(2007)The density ratio model presumes that the log-likelihood ratio of two unknown densities is of some known parametric linear form. However, the choice of the functional form has an impact on both estimation and testing. The ...

Merging information for semiparametric density estimation
(2004)The density ratio model specifies that the likelihood ratio of m - 1 probability density functions with respect to the mth is of known parametric form without reference to any parametric model. We study the semiparametric ...

A note on monte carlo maximization by the density ratio model
(2008)It is well known that untractable normalizing constants of probability density functions complicate the calculation of maximum likelihood estimators. Usually numerical or Monte Carlo methods are employed in order to obtain ...

On the effect of misspecifying the density ratio model
(2006)The density ratio model specifies that the log-likelihood ratio of two unknown densities is of known linear form which depends on some finite dimensional parameters. The model can be broadened to allow for m-samples in a ...

Order-restricted semiparametric inference for the power bias model
(2010)The power bias model, a generalization of length-biased sampling, is introduced and investigated in detail. In particular, attention is focused on order-restricted inference. We show that the power bias model is an example ...
