Methods and formulas for the diagnostic measures in Analyze Binary Response for Definitive Screening Design

Pearson residuals

Elements of the Pearson chi-square that can be used to detect ill-fitted factor/covariate patterns. Minitab stores the Pearson residual for the ith factor/covariate pattern. The formula is:

Notation

TermDescription
yithe response value for the ith factor/covariate pattern
the fitted value for the ith factor/covariate pattern
Vthe variance function for the model at
The following equation gives the variance function for a binomial model:

Standardized and deleted Pearson residuals

Used to detect ill-fitted factor/covariate patterns. Minitab stores the standardized Pearson residual for the ith factor/covariate pattern. Deleted Pearson residuals are also called likelihood ratio Pearson residuals. For the deleted Pearson residual, Minitab calculates the one-step approximation described in Pregibon.1 This approximation is equal to the standardized Pearson residual. The formula is:

TermDescription

Deviance residuals

Deviance residuals are based on the model deviance and are useful in identifying ill-fitted factor/covariate patterns. The model deviance is a goodness-of-fit statistic based on the log-likelihood function. The deviance residual defined for the ith factor/covariate pattern is:

Notation

TermDescription
yi the response value for the ith factor/covariate pattern

Standardized deviance residual

The standardized deviance residual is helpful in the identification of outliers. The formula is:

Notation

TermDescription

hiThe leverage for the ith factor/covariate pattern

Deleted deviance residual

The deleted deviance residual measures the change in the deviance due to the omission of the ith case from the data. Deleted deviance residuals are also called likelihood ratio deviance residuals. For the deleted deviance residual, Minitab calculates a one-step approximation based on the Pregibon one-step approximation method1. The formula is as follows:

Delta chi-square

Minitab calculates the change in the Pearson chi-square due to deleting all the observations with the jth factor/covariate pattern. Minitab stores one delta chi-square value for each distinct factor/covariate pattern in the data. You can use delta chi-square to detect ill-fitted factor/covariate patterns. The formula for the delta chi-square is:

Delta deviance

Minitab calculates the change in the deviance statistic by deleting all the observations with the jth factor/covariate pattern. Minitab stores one value for each distinct factor/covariate pattern in the data. You can use delta deviance to detect ill-fitted factor/covariate patterns. The change in the deviance statistic is:

Delta beta (standardized)

Minitab calculates the change by deleting all observations with the jth factor/covariate pattern. One value is stored for each distinct factor/covariate pattern in the data. You can use standardized delta β to detect factor/covariate patterns that have a strong influence on the estimates of the coefficients. This value is based on the standardized Pearson residual.

A measure of the influence of a single deletion on the fitted values. Observations with large DFITS values may be outliers. Minitab calculates an approximate value for DFITS.

TermDescription

Variance inflation factor (VIF)

To calculate a VIF, perform a weighted regression on the predictor with the remaining predictors. The weight matrix is that given in McCullagh and Nelder1 for the estimation of the coefficients. In this case, the VIF formula is equivalent to the formula for a linear regression. For example, for predictor xj the formula for the VIF is:

Notation

TermDescription
coefficient of determination with xj as the response variable and the other terms in the model as the predictors
