This comprehensive course is designed to equip participants with a deep understanding of linear regression and related advanced techniques using the statistical software R. Over three intensive days, we will cover essential concepts, hands-on exercises, and practical applications, ensuring that participants leave with the knowledge and skills needed to confidently apply these methods in real-world scenarios. Day 1: Introduction to Linear Regression and OLS Estimation. Day 2: Model Diagnostics, Robust Regression, and Variable Selection. Day 3: Nonlinear Regression, Splines, and General Additive Models. | |
