Model selection — is the task of selecting a statistical model from a set of candidate models, given data. In the simplest cases, a pre existing set of data is considered. However, the task can also involve the design of experiments such that the data collected is … Wikipedia
General linear model — Not to be confused with generalized linear model. The general linear model (GLM) is a statistical linear model. It may be written as[1] where Y is a matrix with series of multivariate measurements, X is a matrix that might be a design matrix, B… … Wikipedia
First-hitting-time model — In statistics, first hitting time models are a sub class of survival models. The first hitting time, also called first passage time, of a set A with respect to an instance of a stochastic process is the time until the stochastic process first… … Wikipedia

Multivariate analysis of variance — (MANOVA) is a generalized form of univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is used when there are two or more dependent variables. It helps to answer : 1. do changes in the independent variable(s) have significant effects on the dependent … Wikipedia
Linear classifier — In the field of machine learning, the goal of classification is to group items that have similar feature values, into groups. A linear classifier achieves this by making a classification decision based on the value of the linear combination of… … Wikipedia
