This two-day short course will give you an overview of a variety of regression types and models using the R software, via libraries including lm, glm, and gamlss.
You'll learn about ways of performing model fitting, model diagnostics, predictions and relevant graphical displays.
The regression types you'll cover include:
linear regression
logistic regression
ordinal logistic regression
Poisson regression
negative binomial regression
survival/cox-proportional hazards
multilevel linear regression

Course programme
Teaching is from 10am to 3pm on both days, with an hour's lunch break.
The course will take place in a cluster room, with access to a computer and R.
You're welcome to bring your own laptop if preferred (access to the UCL guest network will also be provided), but make sure R is installed on your laptop before attending (installation guidelines will be made available two weeks before the course).
Learning outcomesBy the end of this course you should be able to:
- understand how to use R to fit regression models
- fully understand the use of the lm, glm, clm and survival R functions
- correctly interpret the given output from the illustrated regressions
- investigate how well a given model fits the data
