Abstract
Lang's Multinomial-Poisson Homogeneous (MPH) models and Homogeneous Linear Predictor (HLP) Multinomial-Poisson models include as special cases many models for contingency table analysis that have been introduced in the effort to overcome well-known limitations of the log-linear models. Here the definitions of MPH and HLP models are extended to include inequality constraints. It is shown that inequality constrained MPH and HLP models are very flexible and rich family of models for contingency table analysis. The inequality constrained hierarchical multinomial marginal models which are an important sub-class of MPH models are also examined. © 2009 SAGE Publications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
