The likelihood equation for a logistic regression model does not always have a finite solution. Sometimes there is a nonunique maximum on the boundary of the parameter space, at infinity. The ...

Maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters of a statistical model involves maximizing the likelihood or, equivalently, the log likelihood with respect to the parameters. The parameter values at ...

Generalized estimating equations (GEEs) have been successfully used to estimate regression parameters from discrete longitudinal data. GEEs have been adapted for spatially correlated count data with ...
