We investigate the extension of the nonparametric regression technique of local polynomial fitting with a kernel weight to generalized linear models and quasi-likelihood contexts. In the ordinary ...

We introduce a fast stepwise regression method, called the orthogonal greedy algorithm (OGA), that selects input variables to enter a p-dimensional linear regression model (with p ≫ n, the sample size ...

In this module, we will introduce generalized linear models (GLMs) through the study of binomial data. In particular, we will motivate the need for GLMs; introduce the binomial regression model, ...

Ordinary linear regression (OLR) assumes that response variables are continuous. Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) provide an extension to OLR since response variables can be continuous or discrete ...
