Linear regression is a powerful and long-established statistical tool that is commonly used across applied sciences, economics and many other fields. Linear regression considers the relationship ...
In recent columns we showed how linear regression can be used to predict a continuous dependent variable given other independent variables 1,2. When the dependent variable is categorical, a common ...
Logistic regression is a powerful technique for fitting models to data with a binary response variable, but the models are difficult to interpret if collinearity, nonlinearity, or interactions are ...
Linear and logistic regression models are essential tools for quantifying the relationship between outcomes and exposures. Understanding the mathematics behind these models and being able to apply ...
The transformation of credit scores into probabilities of default plays an important role in credit risk estimation. The linear logistic regression has developed into a standard calibration approach ...
Understanding one of the most important types of data analysis. by Amy Gallo You probably know by now that whenever possible you should be making data-driven decisions at work. But do you know how to ...
Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research uses code samples, a full C# program and screenshots to detail the ins and outs of kernal logistic regression, a machine learning technique that extends ...
We discuss a class of chain graph models for categorical variables defined by what we call a multivariate regression chain graph Markov property. First, the set of local independencies of these models ...
