A large amount of data collected in the social sciences are counts crossclassified into categories. These counts are non-negative integers and require special methods of analysis to model appropriately; log-linear models are one sophisticated method. The

Sparse nested Markov models with log-linear parameters
Hidden variables are ubiquitous in practical data analysis, and therefore modeling marginal densities and doing inference with the resulting models is an important problem in statistics, machine learning, and causal inference.

Ridge, Liu, and Kibria–Lukman regression methods that have been proposed to solve the multicollinearity problem for both linear and generalized linear regression models (Kibria and Lukman, Shewa and Ugwuowo). This paper considers several different ridge,

Total ozone time series analysis: a neural network model approach [PDF]
This work is focused on the application of neural network based models to the analysis of total ozone (TO) time series. Processes that affect total ozone are extremely non linear, especially at the considered European mid-latitudes.

Regularization Methods Based on the Lq-Likelihood for Linear Models with Heavy-Tailed Errors
We propose regularization methods for linear models based on the Lq-likelihood, which is a generalization of the log-likelihood using a power function. Regularization methods are popular for the estimation in the normal linear model.

Statistics: general linear models (a flexible approach)
This article moves on to discuss a type of statistical testing different from those we have discussed previously, namely a General Linear Model. This system incorporates a number of other statistical models and is a powerful tool used widely in modern ...

ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

Biological data often violate the assumption of constant variance, yet such heteroscedasticity can reflect meaningful biological processes such as plasticity, canalization or stress responses. Despite this, most models treat variance as statistical noise.
