Course Description
Linear regression serves as a workhorse of statistics, but cannot handle some types of complex data. A generalized linear model (GLM) expands upon linear regression to include non-normal distributions including binomial and count data. Throughout this course, you will expand your data science toolkit to include GLMs in R. As part of learning about GLMs, you will learn how to fit model binomial data with logistic regression and count data with Poisson regression. You will also learn how to understand these results and plot them with ggplot2.

Richard Erickson
Quantitative Ecologist
Richard helps people to experience and understand their increasingly numerical world. For his day job he develops new quantitative methods for monitoring and controlling invasive species as well as helping other scientists analyze and understand their data. He has worked on diverse datasets ranging from continent wide species distributions to pesticides in playa wetlands. After hours, he teaches SCUBA Diving as a NAUI Instructor. He has been a "UserR" since 2007.
