BELIEF in dependence: Leveraging atomic linearity in data bits for rethinking generalized linear models
依赖关系中的BELIEF:以二元数据的线性性质重思广义线性模型
Two linearly uncorrelated binary variables must be also independent because nonlinear dependence cannot manifest with only two possible states. This inherent linearity is the atom of dependency constituting any complex form of relationship. Inspired by this observation, we develop a framework called binary expansion linear effect (BELIEF) for understanding arbitrary relationships with a binary outcome. Models from the BELIEF framework are easily interpretable because they…
