New Test Statistics To Assess The Goodness-Of-Fit Of Logistic Regression Models

The binary (or binomial) logistic regression model (LRM) is one of the generalised linear models (GLMs). It is used when the dependent variable is dichotomous and the independent variables are of any type. LRM are popular in many applications and in different disciplines including biomedical and...
