This paper presents a significant advancement in the estimation of the Composite Link Model within a penalized likelihood framework, specifically designed to address indirect observations of grouped count data. While the model is effective in these contexts, its application becomes computationally challenging in large, high-dimensional settings. To overcome this, we propose a reformulated iterative estimation procedure that leverages Generalized Linear Array Models, enabling the disaggregation and smooth estimation of latent distributions in multidimensional data. Through applications to high-dimensional mortality datasets, we demonstrate the model's capability to capture fine-grained patterns while comparing its computational performance to the conventional algorithm. The proposed methodology offers notable improvements in computational speed, storage efficiency, and practical applicability, making it suitable for a wide range of fields where high-dimensional data are provided in grouped formats.
