  <dc:title>Extra Canonical Link Family Objects for Generalized Linear
Models</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package CanonicalFamilyExtra version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Extra family objects in "weird" scenarios, particularly
    logistic or log-linear model with unbounded or non-binary/non-integer
    outcomes. Provides binomial_extra() and poisson_extra() as
    generalizations of binomial() and poisson(). The use of canonical link
    with the corresponding working likelihood in glm() ensures convexity,
    making model fitting reliable and independent of starting value.
    Robert WM Wedderburn (1974) &lt;doi:10.1093/biomet/61.3.439&gt; and Peter McCullagh (1983) &lt;doi:10.1214/aos/1176346056&gt; justified this method to fit generalized linear (mean) models with quasi-/working likelihood.</dc:description>
