Generalized Additive Models with Unknown Link Function Including Variable Selection [PDF]
The generalized additive model is a well established and strong tool that allows to model smooth effects of predictors on the response. However, if the link function, which is typically chosen as the canonical link, is misspecified, substantial bias is ...

Explore poverty with statistical modeling: The bivariate polynomial binary logit regression (BPBLR)
Logit regression (or logistic regression) is a statistical analysis of categorical data. The binary responses have two categories. We present the Bivariate Polynomial Binary Logit Regression (BPBLR), which extends logit regression by modeling two ...
