Abstract

Nonlinear random coefficient models are found to be useful in growth studies and pharmacokinetic experiments. Several methods exist in the literature for estimating the parameters of such models. The properties of the estimators are not well studied. In this paper we summarize different estimation methods and examine some of their properties. We give an example that shows that most of the commonly used estimators are inconsistent.
