Non-Linear & Logistic Regression If the statistics are boring, then you've got the wrong numbers. Edward R. Tufte (Statistics Professor, Yale University) Regression Analyses When do we use these? PART 1: find a relationship between response variable (Y) and a predictor variable (X) ( Y~X) PART 2: use relationship to predict Y from X Simple linear Regression : y = b + m*x y = 0 + 1 * x1 Multiple linear Regression : y = 0 + 1*x1 + 2*x2 .. + n*xn Non linear Regression : when a line just doesn t fit our data Logistic Regression : when our data is binary (data is represented as 0 or 1) Non-Linear Regression Curvilinear relationship between response and predictor variables The right type of Non-Linear model are usually conceptually determined based on biological considerations For a starting point we can plot the relationship
Logistic Regression (a.k.a logit regression) Relationship between a binary response variable and predictor variables • Binary response variable can be considered a class (1 or 0) • Yes or No • Present or Absent • The linear part of the logistic regression equation is used to find the
