Understanding nonparametric estimation for clustered data

Richard Huggins

Centre for Mathematics and its Applications, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200, Australia. richard.huggins{at}anu.edu.au

In this note we give an alternative formulation of the nonparametric estimators of Wang (2003) with the identity link. This results in a closed form of the estimator that has computational advantages and gives insight into the rationale behind the estimator.

Key Words: Clustered data; Nonparametric estimation.


Received February 2005. Revised October 2005.
