Generalized Additive Models


Generalized Additive Models is a scholarly work by Trevor Hastie and Robert Tibshirani, published in 1986 in ''Statistical Science''. The main subjects of the publication include multicollinearity, additive model, Sigma, generalized additive model, binary numeral system, dependent and independent variables, Log-linear model, linear model, applied mathematics, chemometrics, binary data, parametric statistics, generalized linear mixed model, class, linear regression, mathematics, generalized linear model, generalized linear array model, statistics, and multivariate statistics. The authors introduce the class of generalized additive models which replaces the linear form $\\sum \\beta_jX_j$ by a sum of smooth functions $\\sum s_j(X_j)$.
