A tanfolyamnak van egy újabb verziója. Keresse fel: Predictive Modeling Using Logistic Regression.

This course covers predictive modeling using SAS/STAT software with emphasis on the LOGISTIC procedure. This course also discusses selecting variables and interactions, recoding categorical variables based on the smooth weight of evidence, assessing models, treating missing values and using efficiency techniques for massive data sets.
