Description
In this course, you will :
- Introduce you to some modelling background theory and terminology, specifically the general modelling framework, the difference between modelling for explanation and modelling for prediction, and the modelling problem
- Cover basic linear regression, in which you will keep things simple by modelling the outcome variable y as a function of a single explanatory/predictor variable x.
- Basic regression using a single numerical or categorical predictor was learned.
- How do we decide which models to use? Model assessment measures quantify how well an explanatory model "fits" a set of data or how accurate a predictive model is.
