A unifying framework for specifying generalized linear models for categorical data

2013

International audience; In the context of categorical data analysis, the case of nominal and ordinal data has been investigated in depth while the case of partially ordered data has been comparatively neglected. We first propose a new specification of generalized linear models (GLMs) for categorical response variables which en- compasses all the classical models such as multinomial logit, odds proportional or continuation ratio models but also led us to identify new GLMs. This unifying framework makes the different GLMs easier to compare and combine. We then define the more general class of partitioned conditional GLMs for categorical re- sponse variables. This new class enables to take int…
