[R] Logistic and Linear Regression Libraries

Hi all, I'm trying to discover the options available to me for logistic and linear regression. I'm doing some tests on a dataset and want to see how different flavours of the algorithms cope. So far for logistic regression I've tried glm(MASS) and lrm (Design) and found there is a big

Hi Phil, So far for logistic regression I've tried glm(MASS) and lrm (Design) and found there is a big difference. Be sure that you mean what you say, that you are saying what you mean, and that you know what you mean when making such statements, especially on this list. glm is not in

OK, I think I've figured it out, the predict of lrm didn't seem to pass it through the logistic function. If I do this then the value is similar to that of lm. Is this by design? Why would it be so? 1 / (1 + Exp(-1 * 3.38)) = 0.967 tdm wrote: Anyway, do you know why the lrm predict
