ABSTRACT
Structural relationship models describe a semi-parametric relationship between two distribution functions such as location-scale or Lehmann alternative models. The relationship is determined by some structural relationship parameter h. Our aim is to construct the confidence region for h and to validate the presence of the structural relationship between two samples. We address this problem by considering the empirical likelihood method for probability-probability plots.

Empirical likelihood inference for linear transformation models
Empirical likelihood inference is developed for censored survival data under the linear transformation models, which generalize Cox's [Regression models and life tables (with Discussion), J. Roy. Statist. Soc. Ser. B 34 (1972) 187-220] proportional ...
Confidence regions for multinomial parameters
In this paper we study several different methods for setting confidence regions for multinomial parameters. We examine 12 regions based on the likelihood ratio, the score statistic, the Pearson χ2 statistic and various quadratic approximations to these. ...
Bartlett correctable two-sample adjusted empirical likelihood
We propose a two-sample adjusted empirical likelihood (AEL) to construct confidence regions for the difference of two d-dimensional population means. This method eliminates the non-definition of the usual two-sample empirical likelihood (EL) and is ...
