An Investigation of Penalization and Data Augmentation to Improve Convergence of Generalized Estimating Equations for Clustered Binary Outcomes
2022-02-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> In binary logistic regression data are ‘separable’ if there exists a linear combination of explanatory variables which perfectly predicts the observed outcome, leading to non-existence of some of the maximum likelihood coefficient estimates. A popular solution to obtain finite estimates even with separable data is Firth’s logistic regression, which was originally proposed to reduce the bias i...
