Generalized linear models are widely used in statistical techniques. As an extension, generalized partial linear models utilize semiparametric methods and augment the usual parametric terms with a single nonparametric component of a continuous covariate. In this paper, after a short introduction, we present our model in the generalized additive context with a focus on the penalized maximum likelihood and the penalized iteratively reweighted least squares (P-IRLS) problem based on B-splines, which is attractive for nonparametric components. Then, we approach solving the P-IRLS problem using continuous optimization techniques. They have come to constitute an important complementary approach, alternative to the penalty methods, with flexibility for choosing the penalty parameter adaptively. In particular, we model and treat the constrained P-IRIS problem by using the elegant framework of conic quadratic programming. The method is illustrated using a small numerical example.

Analysis of variance and linear contrasts in experimental design with generalized secant hyperbolic distribution
Yilmaz, Yidiz E.; Akkaya, Ayşen (Elsevier BV, 2008-07-01)
We consider one-way classification model in experimental design when the errors have generalized secant hyperbolic distribution. We obtain efficient and robust estimators for block effects by using the modified maximum likelihood estimation (MML) methodology. A test statistic analogous to the normal-theory F statistic is defined to test block effects. We also define a test statistic for testing linear contrasts. It is shown that test statistics based on MML estimators are efficient and robust. The methodolo...
