Abstract: | In this study, we develop the adjusted deviance residuals for the gamma regression model (GRM) by following Cordeiro's (2004) method. These adjusted deviance residuals under the GRM are used for influence diagnostics. A comparative analysis has been sorted out between our proposed method of the adjusted deviance residuals and an existing method for influence diagnostics. These results are illustrated by a simulation study and using a real data set. They are presented for different values of dispersion and sample sizes and indicate the significant role of the GRM inferences. |
