GAM Procedure

The GAM procedure is production with SAS 9.2. PROC GAM now produces graphs, including smoothing component plots and additive component plots. The target for an additive logistic model no longer has to be numeric; PROC GAM offers the same types of options for response and classification variables that are available in procedures such as PROC LOGISTIC and PROC GENMOD. The ANODEV=NOREFIT option in the MODEL statement enables a fast approximation analysis of deviance.
