The standard regression model designed for real space is not suitable for compositional variables; it should be considered, whether the response and/or covariates are of compositional nature. There are usually three types of multiple regression model with compositional variables: Type 1 refers to the case where all the covariates are compositional data and the response is real; Type 2 is the opposite of Type 1; Type 3 relates to the model with compositional response and covariates. There have been some models for the three types. In this paper, we focus on Type 3 and propose multiple linear regression models including model in the simplex and model in isometric logratio (ilr) coordinates. The model in the simplex is based on matrix product, which can project a D 1 -part composition to another D 2 -part composition, and can deal with different number of parts of compositional variables. Some theorems are given to point out the relationship of parameters between the proposed models. Moreover, the inference for parameters in proposed models is also given. Real example is studied to verify the validity and usefulness of proposed models.
ARTICLE HISTORY
In this paper we study a class of mixed monotone operators with convexity and concavity. In particular, we give conditions, both necessary and sufficient, for the existence and uniqueness of fixed points. Moreover, we sketch a simple application of our main theorem and generalize some previous results.
