ParMA: Parallelized Bayesian Model Averaging for Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2022
This paper describes the gretl function package ParMA, which provides Bayesian model averaging (BMA) in generalized linear models. In order to overcome the lack of analytical specification for many of the models covered, the package features an ...

Generalized Linear Models in Vehicle Insurance

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2014
Actuaries in insurance companies try to find the best model for an estimation of insurance premium. It depends on many risk factors, e.g. the car characteristics and the profile of the driver.

Analysis of Robust Quasi-deviances for Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2004
Generalized linear models (McCullagh and Nelder 1989) are a popular technique for modeling a large variety of continuous and discrete data. They assume that the response variables Yi , for i = 1, . . .

Quantifying Reserve Uncertainty Using Stochastic Multivariate Generalized Linear Model: A Case Study on Egyptian General Insurance Market [PDF]

open access: yesMaǧallaẗ Al-Buḥūṯ Al-Mālīyyaẗ wa Al-Tiğāriyyaẗ
Accurate claims reserving is crucial for insurance companies as it directly influences risk assessment, pricing strategies, and overall financial position. Traditional univariate reserving approaches, which treat each line of business independently, fail

Model Selection in Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesSymmetry, 2023
The problem of model selection in regression analysis through the use of forward selection, backward elimination, and stepwise selection has been well explored in the literature. The main assumption in this, of course, is that the data are normally distributed and the main tool used here is either a t test or an F test. However, the properties of these

Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society. Series A (General), 1972
The technique of iterative weighted linear regression can be used to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters with observations distributed according to some exponential family and systematic effects that can be made linear by a suitable transformation.

Generalized linear mixed models can detect unimodal species-environment relationships [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
Niche theory predicts that species occurrence and abundance show non-linear, unimodal relationships with respect to environmental gradients. Unimodal models, such as the Gaussian (logistic) model, are however more difficult to fit to data than linear ...

Bayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2018
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model

Sensitivity analysis for causal effects with generalized linear models

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2022
Residual confounding is a common source of bias in observational studies. In this article, we build upon a series of sensitivity analyses methods for residual confounding developed by Brumback et al. and Chiba whose sensitivity parameters are constructed

Using R In Generalized Linear Models [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Română de Statistică, 2015
This paper aims to approach the estimation of generalized linear models (GLM) on the basis of the glm routine package in R. Particularly, regression models will be analyzed for those cases in which the explained variable follows a Poisson or a Negative ...
