Chordal Graph Models of Contingency Tables

Chordal Graph Models of Contingency Tables

Chordal graph theory has recently found application by statisticians in the analysis of contingency tables. Specifically, what are called “decomposable loglinear models” correspond exactly to chordal graphs. We survey these results, translating the statistical application into conventional graph the...

Zusammenfassung:Chordal graph theory has recently found application by statisticians in the analysis of contingency tables. Specifically, what are called “decomposable loglinear models” correspond exactly to chordal graphs. We survey these results, translating the statistical application into conventional graph theory.
