In this paper, we study Ln in terms of its two closely connected properties: moment generating function and large deviations. This study generalizes several existing results in the literature, and also finds an application in statistical inference. Our method on the moment generating function is based on a global estimate of the cumulative distribution function of Ln proposed in this paper, and the proofs of the large deviations include the Gärtner–Ellis theorem and the moment generating function.","PeriodicalId":48996,"journal":{"name":"Probability and Mathematical Statistics-Poland","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2018-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42368931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By applying the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem, the consistency and asymptotic normality of the M-estimation for the mixed-type generalized linear model are proved with regularity assumptions.
