This is not the current course catalog

Class Details

This course will explore generalized linear models (GLMs)–the extension of linear models, discussed in Stat346, to response variables that have specific non-normal distributions, such as counts and proportions. We will consider the general structure and theory of GLMs and see their use in a range of applications. As time permits, we will also examine extensions of these models for clustered data such as mixed effects models and generalized estimating equations.
