  2. Ordered logit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_logit

    Another example application are Likert-type items commonly employed in survey research, where respondents rate their agreement on an ordered scale (e.g., "Strongly disagree" to "Strongly agree"). The ordered logit model provides an appropriate fit to these data, preserving the ordering of response options while making no assumptions of the ...

  3. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  4. Logistic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_regression

    Logistic regression is used in various fields, including machine learning, most medical fields, and social sciences. For example, the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (), which is widely used to predict mortality in injured patients, was originally developed by Boyd et al. using logistic regression. [6]

  5. Ordinal regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_regression

    [1] [2] Examples of ordinal regression are ordered logit and ordered probit. Ordinal regression turns up often in the social sciences, for example in the modeling of human levels of preference (on a scale from, say, 1–5 for "very poor" through "excellent"), as well as in information retrieval.

  6. Ordinary least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinary_least_squares

    In statistics, ordinary least squares (OLS) is a type of linear least squares method for choosing the unknown parameters in a linear regression model (with fixed level-one [clarification needed] effects of a linear function of a set of explanatory variables) by the principle of least squares: minimizing the sum of the squares of the differences between the observed dependent variable (values ...

  7. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    A common example of a sigmoid function is the logistic function, which is defined by the formula: [1] ... and its inverse is the logit function.

  8. Logit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logit

    If p is a probability, then p/(1 − p) is the corresponding odds; the logit of the probability is the logarithm of the odds, i.e.: ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ (). The base of the logarithm function used is of little importance in the present article, as long as it is greater than 1, but the natural logarithm with base e is the one most often used.

  9. Principal component regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_component_regression

    The PCR method may be broadly divided into three major steps: 1. Perform PCA on the observed data matrix for the explanatory variables to obtain the principal components, and then (usually) select a subset, based on some appropriate criteria, of the principal components so obtained for further use.
