Abstract

So far we have not assumed any restrictions on fibers or cell counts of contingency tables. In some problems, however, we have to impose some conditions on fibers or contingency tables. In such cases we need to find a set of moves connecting restricted fibers or restricted tables. In some cases only a subset of a minimal Markov basis is required to connect restricted fibers. In other cases, however, no minimal Markov basis connects every restricted fiber. In the present chapter, we study two such problems. The first one is to find a set of moves connecting every fiber with positive marginals for the discrete logistic regression model. The second one is the case where cell counts are restricted to be zero or one.
