Abstract

Recently, Cheng (2009, Biometrics 65, 96-103) proposed a model for the causal effect of receiving treatment when there is all-or-none compliance in one randomization group, with maximum likelihood estimation based on convex programming. We discuss an alternative approach that involves a model for all-or-none compliance in two randomization groups and estimation via a perfect fit or an expectation-maximization algorithm for count data. We believe this approach is easier to implement, which would facilitate the reproduction of calculations.
