SFASA is proud to
host a short course Applied Logistic Regression sponsored by ASA.
Applied Logistic Regression (Instructor: Prof. Stanley Lemeshow)
Abstract
Medical research increasingly depends on
quantitative approaches, while physiciansÕ decision making
is becoming strictly based on the evidence of quantified data. Coupled with
newly developed methodology such as lasso for high-dimensional data, the
logistic regression model has become increasingly popular in health sciences
and the standard method in handling binary data. It has also been widely used
in other analytically complex problems.
Targeting for statisticians, data scientists and
professionals of related disciplines, this intermediate level course aims to
provide not only basic theoretical concept and practical training in
statistical modeling with particular emphasis on logistic regression using
illustrative examples, but also in-depth understanding of this mostly used
technique.
Reference textbook: Applied Logistic Regression,
3rd edition by Hosmer, Lemeshow
and Sturdivant.
