Abstract:
|
In this work submitted to ASA Data Expo 2011, we analyzed gliders, floats, boats and birds data. A varying-coefficients logistic regression was fitted on the birds data. The result indicates that the oil was spreading more quickly along east-west direction. Analysis on gliders, floats and boats by boosting trees gave a consistent result on the spreading direction of oil.
