Liu-Type logistic estimator under Stochastic Linear Restrictions Cover

Liu-Type logistic estimator under Stochastic Linear Restrictions

Open Access
|Mar 2018

Abstract

To conquer the multicollinearity problem in logistic regression, many alternative estimators have been proposed in the literature when some linear restrictions on the parameter space are available in addition to the sample model. In this paper, we propose a new two parameter Liu-type estimator called Stochastic Restricted Liu-Type Logistic Estimator (SRLTLE) by combining Liu-type estimator with the logistic model in the presence of stochastic linear restrictions. Further, a Monte Carlo simulation study is done to compare the performance of the proposed estimator with some existing estimators in the scalar mean squared error (SMSE) sense, and a numerical example is given to illustrate the theoretical results.
