Multiply Robust Weighted Generalized Estimating Equations for Incomplete Longitudinal Binary Data Using Empirical Likelihood

Abstract

We here discuss two patterns of asymptotic variance of 𝜷𝜷 � EL under the assumption that 𝜿𝜿, 𝜶𝜶, and 𝜸𝜸 𝑗𝑗𝑗𝑗 are known/unknown parameters. Let 𝜶𝜶 𝑠𝑠 denote an 𝑎𝑎 𝑠𝑠 -dimensional parameter vector, and 𝜸𝜸 𝑗𝑗𝑗𝑗 𝑘𝑘 denote a ℎ 𝑘𝑘 -dimensional parameter vector.
