The basic principle of probability applies to a near infinite parade of situations. Basically, analysts use probability as a means of determining the likelihood of outcomes and occurrences given a ...

We propose a novel approach for the computation of the probability distribution of a counting variable linked to a particular kind of hierarchical multivariate copula function called a clusterized ...

In recent columns we showed how linear regression can be used to predict a continuous dependent variable given other independent variables 1,2. When the dependent variable is categorical, a common ...

The OUTPUT statement creates a new SAS data set that contains all the variables in the input data set and, optionally, the estimated linear predictors and their ...
