Binomial.resid_anscombe(endog, mu) [source]

The Anscombe residuals

Parameters:	endog : array-like Endogenous response variable mu : array-like Fitted mean response variable
Returns:	resid_anscombe : array The Anscombe residuals as defined below.

Notes

sqrt(n)*(cox_snell(endog)-cox_snell(mu))/(mu**(1/6.)*(1-mu)**(1/6.))

where cox_snell is defined as cox_snell(x) = betainc(2/3., 2/3., x)*betainc(2/3.,2/3.) where betainc is the incomplete beta function

The name ‘cox_snell’ is idiosyncratic and is simply used for convenience following the approach suggested in Cox and Snell (1968). Further note that cox_snell(x) = x**(2/3.)/(2/3.)*hyp2f1(2/3.,1/3.,5/3.,x) where hyp2f1 is the hypergeometric 2f1 function. The Anscombe residuals are sometimes defined in the literature using the hyp2f1 formulation. Both betainc and hyp2f1 can be found in scipy.
