Model of a molecule, with coloured balls representing different atoms. A model is an informative representation of an object, person, or system. The term originally denoted the plans of a building in late 16th-century English, and derived via French and Italian ultimately from Latin modulus, ' a measure '.
The general linear model is a special case of the GLM in which the distribution of the residuals follow a conditionally normal distribution. The distribution of the residuals largely depends on the type and distribution of the outcome variable; different types of outcome variables lead to the variety of models within the GLM family.
Together with the moving-average (MA) model, it is a special case and key component of the more general autoregressive–moving-average (ARMA) and autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models of time series, which have a more complicated stochastic structure; it is also a special case of the vector autoregressive model (VAR), which ...
Human processor model or MHP (Model Human Processor [1]) is a cognitive modeling method developed by Stuart K. Card, Thomas P. Moran, & Allen Newell (1983) used to calculate how long it takes to perform a certain task. Other cognitive modeling methods include parallel design, GOMS, and keystroke-level model (KLM).
In statistics, a generalized linear model (GLM) is a flexible generalization of ordinary linear regression.The GLM generalizes linear regression by allowing the linear model to be related to the response variable via a link function and by allowing the magnitude of the variance of each measurement to be a function of its predicted value.
The GAM model class is quite broad, given that smooth function is a rather broad category. For example, a covariate may be multivariate and the corresponding a smooth function of several variables, or might be the function mapping the level of a factor to the value of a random effect.
The Capability Maturity Model was originally developed as a tool for objectively assessing the ability of government contractors' processes to implement a contracted software project. The model is based on the process maturity framework first described in IEEE Software [2] and, later, in the 1989 book Managing the Software Process by Watts ...
Comparison model highlighting conceptual model role in system process. A conceptual model's primary objective is to convey the fundamental principles and basic functionality of the system which it represents. Also, a conceptual model must be developed in such a way as to provide an easily understood system interpretation for the model's users.
