Abstract
Techniques are described for automated selection of components for a generalized linear model. In one example, a method includes determining a candidate set of distributions, a candidate set of link functions, and a candidate set of predictor variables, based at least in part on a dataset of interest. The method further includes selecting a distribution from the initial candidate set of distributions and a link function from the initial candidate set of link functions, based at least in part on the candidate set of predictor variables; and selecting predictor variables from the candidate set of predictor variables, based at least in part on the selected distribution and the selected link function. The method further includes reiterating the selecting processes until a stopping criterion is fulfilled, and generating a generalized linear model output comprising the selected distribution, the selected link function, and the selected predictor variables.
