R help - Jul 2012 - empty cell when running GEE for binary data

Hi all,

My data are binary and within-subject correlated; there are three factors of
interest and two of them are within-subject. So, I have considered modelling
the data using a binomial regression with a GEE approach (which can be
achieved using the function geeglm). One problem is that I got some empty
cells, so I can't simply use logit as a link function. I was wondering if
you know any existing R solution for this? 

also, I tired to use "cauchit" as the link function, but it turned out
that
within the function geeglm "cauchit" is not available. Any idea on
this?

Many thanks!
Yue

Dear Yu,

What do you mean exactly by "exmpty cell" ?

But you can try, the following packages which might help you: gee and yags.
But I am not sure.

Ozgur
