Minimum Penalized ϕ-Divergence Estimation under Model Misspecification

This paper focuses on the consequences of assuming a wrong model for multinomial data when using minimum penalized ϕ -divergence, also known as minimum penalized disparity estimators, to estimate the model parameters. These estimators are shown to converge to a well-defined limit. An application...
