Abstract
This study focuses on parameter estimation in the presence of multicollinearity for the count response that follows the Waring distribution. The Waring regression model deals with over-dispersion. So, this study proposed the Waring ridge regression (WRR) model as a solution for multicollinearity with over-dispersion. We conducted a theoretical comparison between the ridge estimator and the maximum likelihood estimators using matrix and scalar mean squared error as a performance evaluation criterion. Several ridge parameters are considered for the WRR estimator. The performance of these parameters is numerically evaluated using a Monte Carlo simulation study and a real application. The results of the simulation and application demonstrate the superiority of the WRR model with different ridge parameters over the maximum likelihood estimator.
