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, ...

Many response variables are handled poorly by regression models when the errors are assumed to be normally distributed. For example, modeling the state damaged/not damaged of cells after treated with ...

Previous published work deals with goodness of fit tests of the generalized linear model against zero-inflation and against over-dispersion separately. In this paper we deal with the class of ...
