Re: [R] change lm log(x) to glm poisson

Hi Josh and Elaine: John Fox's CAR book ( the companion to his applied regression text ) is really great for implementing GLMs in R. It also has a brief but quality discussion of the theory behind them. His text goes into more detail. Dobson's "Introduction to generalized linear models" is also de

Re: [R] change lm log(x) to glm poisson

Hi Elaine, If you want identical models, you need to use the same family and then the formula is the same. Here is an example with a built in dataset: ## these two are identical > coef(lm(mpg ~ hp + log(wt), data = mtcars)) (Intercept) hp log(wt) 38.86095585 -0.02808968 -13.06

[R] change lm log(x) to glm poisson

Hello list, I am running a regression using lm(Y~A+B+log(C)+log(D)) Now, I would like to test if glm can produce similar results. So the code was revised as glm(Y~A+B+C+D, family=poisson) (code 1) However, I found some example using glm for lm. It suggests that the code should be revised lik
