Likelihood Inference for a Class of Latent Markov Models under Linear Hypotheses on the Transition Probabilities
For a class of latent Markov models for discrete variables having a longitudinal structure, we introduce an approach for formulating and testing linear hypotheses on the transition probabilities of the latent process. For the maximum likelihood estimation of a latent Markov model under hypotheses of...
