Plots for Generalized Additive Models

David J. Olive

Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

Several useful plots for generalized linear models (GLMs) can be applied to generalized additive models (GAMs) with little modification. A plot for a GLM using the estimated sufficient predictor can be extended to a GAM by replacing the ESP by the estimated additive predictor . The residual plot, response plot, and transformation plots are examples. Since a GLM is a special case of a GAM, a plot of EAP versus ESP is useful for checking goodness of fit of the GLM.
