Abstract:The density ratio model has been widely used in many research fields. To test the homogeneity of the model, the empirical likelihood ratio test (ELRT) has been shown to be valid. In this paper, we conduct a parametric test procedure. We transform the hypothesis of homogeneity to one on the equality of mean parameters of the exponential family of distributions. Then, we propose a modified Wald test and give its asymptotic power. We further apply it to the semicontinuous case when there is an excess of zeros in … Show more
