Unlocking Nonlinear Insights: A Practical Guide to Generalized Additive Models (GAM)
Generalized Additive Models (GAM) extend linear regression by using smooth, non‑parametric functions and link functions to capture complex nonlinear relationships, offering flexible estimation via backfitting and local scoring, while balancing interpretability and computational cost, as illustrated through a calcium‑intake health example.
