This course is designed for analysts, statisticians, modelers, and other professionals who have experience and knowledge in regression analysis and who want to learn available procedures in SAS/STAT software for robust regression. The two procedures addressed in the course are the ROBUSTREG procedure and the QUANTREG procedure.
This course includes practice data.
Learn How To
use PROC ROBUSTREG to fit a regression model less sensitive to outliers use PROC QUANTREG to fit a quantile regression model.Who Should Attend
Analysts, statisticians, and modelers
Prerequisites
