Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, Issue 2
This book aims to provide an overview of the key issues in generalized linear models (GLMs), including assumptions, estimation methods, different link functions, and a Bayesian approach. Applications of the book concern different types of data, such as continuous, categorical, count, correlated, and time-to-event data. The book contains theoretical and applicable examples of different type of GLMs. The first five chapters introduce the basics of linear models and the relations between different distributions. The following chapters explain GLMs in respect to different types of link function. One of the most important features of the book is the statistical software codes in each chapter, which make it more practical, as well as the last chapter that focuses on examples of Bayesian analysis.
