In the analysis of contingency table with ordered categories, the relationship between odds for adjacent categories has received con-siderable interest. We consider likelihood ratio tests of independence against an order restriction on odds in 2 $\times$ k contingency tables.

In this paper we show that the peak of the type I error rate of the Oochran-Armitage trend test could be greater than the nominal level when $2\;{\times}\;C$ contingency tables obtained from two multinomial distributions are extremely unbalanced. This result justifies the use of the exact Cochran-Armitage trend test in extremely unbalanced $2\;{\times}\;C$ contingency tables.

Monte Carlo methods have been used in exact inference for contingency tables for a long time; however, they suffer from ergodicity and the ability to achieve a desired proportion of valid tables. In this paper, we apply the stochastic approximation Monte Carlo(SAMC; Liang et al., 2007) algorithm, as an adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo, to the exact test of mutual independence in a multiway contingency table. The performance of SAMC has been investigated on real datasets compared to with existing Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. The numerical results are in favor of the new method in terms of the quality of estimates.

Pearson $X^2$ statistics can be used as the measure of association for two-way contingency tables. However, it's magnitude depends on the sample size N, the normalized index ${\phi}^2 = X^2\;/\;N$ has. been widely used in many researches instead of that. In this study, we firstly point out that the actual upper bound of ${\phi}^2$ can be affected by the given marginals of the tables, so that ${\phi}^2$ should be adjusted the actual maximum to get the proper range [ 0, 1]. Also we point out that the maximum could be found easily by using several algorithms like Hu and Mukerjee(2002). With the actual maximum, we propose the relative measure of association which is normalized by it.

A measure is proposed to represent the degree of residuals from the symmetry model for square contingency tables with nominal categories. The measure is derivedby modifying the sum of squared singular values for a skew symmetric matrix of the residuals from the symmetry model. The proposed measure would be useful for comparing the degree of residuals from the symmetry model in several tables.

Correspondence analysis is an exploratory method for two-way contingency tables intended to display the association pattern between row and column categories. It has been developed for several decades mainly in France and Japan and, nowadays, is popular worldwide. For the special case, however, that the column consists of ordered categories, correspondence analysis may yield ackward result so that it cannot be fully accommodated. That's because the row and column categories are assumed to be nominal in the ordinary correspondence analysis. The aim of this study is to develop the correspondence analysis for two-way contingency tables with ordered column categories. It is based on two specific algorithms,

Matched pairs are twice continuously measured data with the same categories. They can be represented as the square contingency tables. We can also consider symmetry and marginal homogeneity. Moreover, we can infer the matched pairs models; the symmetry model, the quasi-symmetry model, and the ordinal quasi-symmetry model. These inferences are involved in assumptions for special distributions. In this study, we visualize matched pairs models using modified correspondence analysis. Modified correspondence analysis can be used when square contingency tables are given; consequently, it is involved in the square and asymmetric correspondence matrix. This technique does not need assumptions for special distributions and is more helpful than the correspondence analysis to visualize matched pairs models.

In this paper we study pooling effects in Bayesian testing procedures of independence for contingency tables from small areas. In small area estimation setup, we typically use a hierarchical Bayesian model for borrowing strength across small areas. This techniques of borrowing strength in small area estimation is used to construct a Bayes test of independence for contingency tables from small areas. In specific, we consider the methods of direct or indirect pooling in multinomial models through Dirichlet priors. We use the Bayes factor (or equivalently the ratio of the marginal likelihoods) to construct the Bayes test, and the marginal density is obtained by integrating the joint density function over all parameters. The Bayes test is computed by performing a Monte Carlo integration based on the method proposed by Nandram and Kim (2002).

For square contingency tables with nominal categories, this paper proposes a measure to represent the degree of departure from the quasi-symmetry (QS) model and the Bradley-Terry (BT) model. The measure proposed is expressed by using the Cressie and Read (1984)'s power-divergence or Patil and Taillie (1982)'s diversity index. The measure lies between 0 and 1, and it is useful for comparing the degree of departure from QS or BT in several tables.

In this article, we propose the weighted LAD (least absolute deviations) estimators for multi-dimensional contingency tables and drive an estimation method to estimate the proposed estimators. To illustrate the robustness of the estimators, simulation results are presented for several models Including log-linear models and models for ordinal variables in multidimensional contingency tables. Examples were also introduced.
