| Abstract: | ABSTRACT A reparameterisation procedure is investigated for embedded model problems. The procedure is given by solving differential equations determined by indeterminate forms of limit. Some properties are provided for the existence of an embedded model. Note that an embedded model may include another embedded model. We introduce the concept of embedded model of kth generation and discuss the use of one-by-one elimination procedure to construct graphs of embedded models. As examples, we derive embedded models for some distributions, to which existing method cannot be applied. Our method includes the method given by Cheng et al. [1] Cheng, R.C.H., Evans, B.E. and Iles, T.C. 1992. Embedded Models in Non-Linear Regression. J. R. Statist. Soc. B, 54: 877–888. [Google Scholar] as a special case. |
