BIST-512 Statistical Modeling I

BIST-512 Statistical Modeling I
Spring only
Faculty:
  • Luta, George
  • 3 modules: regression and ANOVA, generalized linear models, longitudinal models.
    Lab teaches SAS procedures to fit these models.
    Regression and ANOVA : fitting a linear regression, least squares method, regression in observational studies, estimation and prediction of Y for a given X, predicted sample mean of Y, testing large deviation, no intercept model, correlation coefficient, bivariate normal distribution, testing single correlation, comparing correlations, rank correlation, 2×C contingency tables, linear trend, R×C contingency tables, fixed-effect ANOVA, model notation, F-test, planned comparisons, orthogonal comparisons, random effects model, homogeneity of variance, randomized blocks, latin squares.
    Generalized Linear Models : exponential family, proportion, count and rate data, link functions, estimation, logistic and Poisson regressions, fixed and random effects, repeated measures, model selection.
    Longitudinal Models: generalized estimating equations, estimation, clustered data, linear mixed models, model fit.
    Credits: 3
    Prerequisites: None
