Abstract:

A semi-recursive stochastic approximation to an idealized algorithm for estimating the most parsimonious generalized linear model with missing data and multiple covariates is studied. Simulation studies reveal robust properties of the approach under the missing at random assumption. Additionally, the method appears adequate for detecting interaction terms. Analysis of baseline and longitudinal measurements of CD4 count, HIV-1 genotype, RNA level is provided.
