Date: January 2008
Type: White Paper
Rating: (2)

Overview: This paper published by SAS institute demonstrates that if the goal of modeling is prediction, with a large number of covariates and little theoretical guidance for choosing among them, the approach based on the combination of stepwise logistic regression, information criteria, and best subset selection will result in fully automated procedure.
