CSCAR offering workshop on regression modeling in Python — Jan. 7 and 8

CSCAR will offer a two-part workshop on regression modeling in Python. The main focus will be on linear models and generalized linear models (logistic, Poisson, and negative binomial regression). The statistical background will be reviewed briefly, but the main emphasis will be on fitting regression models using Python and its scientific libraries. All software discussed in the workshop is free and open source, and runs on all major platforms. There is no charge to attend the workshop. For more information, contact cscar@umich.edu. Training materials are available at: https://github.com/kshedden/Python-regression-workshop/wiki Date: Jan. 7 and 8 (participants should plan to attend both days) Time: 4 – 6 p.m. Location: Rackham Commons Room, Lower Level.
