Description

This package contains functions for likelihood and posterior analysis of conditionally specified logistic regression models.

Details

Assume that for each of n experimental units the values of m binary variables

Yi1, …, Yim

are recorded. The 'MleCslogistic' and 'BayesCslogistic' functions fit a conditional specified logistic regression model, such that for i = 1, …, n and j = 1, …, m,

logit P(Yij=1 | Yik=yk, k neq j) = Xij β j + ∑_{k=1, k \neq j} αjk yk

where, the parameters αjk have interpretation as conditional log-odds ratios and the parameters β j correspond to the regression coefficients associated to the vector of covariates Xij. For compatibility of conditional distributions it is assumed that αjk = αkj, j \neq k .
