Abstract

Since generalized linear model (GLM) with binary response variable is widely used in many disciplines, many efforts have been made to construct a fit model. However, little attention is paid to the link functions, which play a critical role in GLM model. In this article, we compared three link functions and evaluated different model selection methods based on these three link functions. Also, we provided some suggestions on how to choose the proper link function for binary data.
