We present a diagnostic method for the quasi-likelihood estimators in generalized linear models. Since these estimators can be usually obtained by iteratively reweighted least squares which are well known to be very sensitive to unusual data, a diagnostic step is indispensable to analysis of data. We extend the local influence approach based on the maximum likelihood function to that on the quasi-likelihood function. Under several perturbation schemes local influence diagnostics are derived. An illustrative example is given and we compare the results provided by local influence and deletion.

국소선형 추정량은 여러 면에서 바람직한 특성을 많이 갖고 있는 좋은 추정량이다. 그러나 자료가 희박한 부분에서는 매우 불안정한 추정값을 갖게 되는 문제가 있음이 밝혀졌으며, 이 문제를 해결하기 위한 여러 방안이 많이 연구되었다. 그러나 이항반응변수를 위한 국소선형 추정량의 변형이라고 할 수 있는 국소선형 준가능도 추정량에 대해서는 아직 자료의 희박성 문제가 다루어지지 않고 있었다. 이 논문에서는 국소선형 준가능도 추정량이 갖고 있는 자료의 희박성 문제를 인식하고, 몇 가지 해결방안을 제시하였으며, 모의 실험을 통하여 가장 효과적인 방안을 선택하였다.

The estimation of the response curve is the important problem in the quantal bioassay. When we estimate the response curve, we determine the design points in advance of the experiment. Then naturally we have a question of which design would be optimal. As a response curve estimator, locally weighted quasi-likelihood estimator has several more appealing features than the traditional nonparametric estimators. The optimal design density for the locally weighted quasi-likelihood estimator is derived and its ability both in theoretical and in empirical point of view are investigated.

In bioassay, the response curve is usually assumed monotone increasing, but its exact form is unknown, so it is very difficult to select the proper functional form for the parametric model. Therefore, we should probably use the nonparametric regression model rather than the parametric model unless we have at least the partial information about the true response curve. However, it is well known that the nonparametric regression estimate is not necessarily monotone. Therefore the monotonizing transformation technique is of course required. In this paper, we compare the finite sample properties of the monotone transformation methods which can be applied to the local linear quasi-likelihood response curve estimate.

This article deals with the nonparametric analysis of longitudinal data when there exist possible correlations among repeated measurements for a given subject. We consider a quasi-likelihood regression model where a transformation of the regression function through a link function is linear in time-varying coefficients. We investigate the local polynomial approach to estimate the time-varying coefficients, and derive the asymptotic distribution of the estimators in this quasi-likelihood context. A real data set is analyzed as an illustrative example.
