First, multiple linear regression models are considered and the design matrices are allowed to be different. Second, the predictor variables are either unconstrained or constrained to finite intervals ...

Conclusions: Generalised linear models are attractive for the regression of cost data because they provide parametric methods of analysis where a variety of non-normal distributions can be specified ...

When multiple variables are associated with a response, the interpretation of a prediction equation is seldom simple.

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, ...
