- Regression Modeling with Many Correlated Predictors: High-Dimensional Data Analysis in Practice
- Taught by: Jay Magidson, Statistical Innovations Inc. & Tony Babinec, AB Analytics
- Abstract: The availability of a vast amount of data in fields such as genomics, marketing research, and signal processing has led to recent advances in high-dimensional data analysis. It is now possible to develop reliable regression models, even when the number of predictors exceeds the number of cases. In this course, we will begin by reviewing problems and limitations with traditional linear and logistic regression. We will then introduce the two primary regularization approaches for analyzing such data—penalized regression and component methods—related software, and recent advances in feature selection. Our applications-oriented presentation provides insight into how the new approaches work in examples with both low- and high-dimensional data and an overview of the relevant theory, supplemented by supporting equations. We will use real and simulated data sets to illustrate the different methods. The material presented will be included in a forthcoming book on this topic by Jay Magidson.

- Conference Overview: The 7th International Conference on Partial Least Squares and Related Methods (PLS 2012) will be held in Houston, Texas on May 9th-12th, 2012. The will be the first time it is hosted in the United States. The conference theme "Advancing the Theoretical and Applied Frontier" is concerned with both theory and exemplars in practice for areas as diverse as Business, Engineering and the Life Sciences. This conference is a unique opportunity for outstanding experts and practitioners in PLS methods, from all over the world, to meet and discuss mutual interests. During the four day meeting, our global attendees reflecting different applied domains will share their state-of-art understanding and advances in the use of PLS methods.
- October, 2011 -- New Online Course Featuring CORExpress and XLSTAT-CCR -- Begins January 13, 2012
- Regression Modeling and Classification with Many Correlated Predictors:
- Key Driver Regression and Other Applications Using CCR Methods
- This course is designed for marketing researchers, biomedical researchers, survey analysts, and anyone who wants to learn the latest tools to develop reliable regression models given the challenges of many correlated predictors that approach or exceed the sample size N (high dimensional data).
- Our applications-oriented presentation provides insight into how the new approaches work through examples and by providing an overview of the relevant theory, supplemented by the supporting equations.
