A Coefficient of Determination for Generalized Linear Models.

The coefficient of determination, a.k.a. R, iswell-defined in linear regression models, and measures the proportion of variation in the dependent variable explained by the predictors included in themodel. To extend it for generalized linearmodels, we use the variance function to define the total var...

      ab: The coefficient of determination, a.k.a. R, iswell-defined in linear regression models, and measures the proportion of variation in the dependent variable explained by the predictors included in themodel. To extend it for generalized linearmodels, we use the variance function to define the total variation of the dependent variable, as well as the remaining variation of the dependent variable after modeling the predictive effects of the independent variables. Unlike other definitions that demand complete specification of the likelihood function, our definition of R only needs to know the mean and variance functions, so applicable to more general quasi-models. It is consistent with the classicalmeasure of uncertainty using variance, and reduces to the classical definition of the coefficient of determination when linear regression models are considered.
