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 ...

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, ...

Mathematical modelling is an essential tool in systems biology. To ensure the accuracy of mathematical models, model parameters must be estimated using experimental data, a process called regression.

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 ...
