摘要

We introduce a general class of capture-recapture models in which capture probabilities depend on capture history. We discuss constrained versions of the saturated model based on equality constraints. Inference can be performed through a simple estimating equation. The approach is illustrated on a dataset concerning Great Copper butterflies in Willamette Valley of Oregon.
