The first account in book form of all the essential features of the quasi-likelihood methodology, stressing its value as a general purpose inferential tool. The treatment is rather informal, emphasizing essential principles rather than detailed proofs, and readers are assumed to have a firm grounding in probability and statistics at the graduate level. Many examples of the use of the methods in both classical statistical and stochastic process contexts are provided.

This is author-approved bcc: Quasi-likelihood is a very generally applicable estimating function based methodology for optimally estimating model parameters in systems subject to random effects. Only assumptions about means and covariances are required in contrast to the full distributional assumptions of ordinary likelihood based methodology. This monograph gives the first account in book form of all the essential features of the quasi-likelihood methodology, and stresses its value as a general purpose inferential tool. The treatment is rather informal, emphasizing essential princples rather than detailed proofs. Many examples of the use of the methods in both classical statistical and stochastic process contexts are provided. Readers are assumed to have a firm grounding in probability and statistics at the graduate level.Christopher Heyde is Professor of Statistics at both Columbia University in New York and the Australian National University in Canberra.
