MultinomialRegression

Multinomial regression model

Since R2023a

Description

MultinomialRegression is a fitted multinomial regression model object. A multinomial regression model describes the relationship between predictors and a response that has a finite set of values.

Use the properties of a MultinomialRegression object to investigate a fitted multinomial regression model. The object properties include information about coefficient estimates, summary statistics, and the data used to fit the model. Use the object functions to predict responses, and to evaluate and visualize the multinomial regression model.

Creation

Create a MultinomialRegression model object with specified parameter values by using fitmnr.

Properties

Coefficient Estimates

ClassNames — Names of response variable categories

Read-only: categorical array | character array | logical vector | numeric vector | cell array of character vectors

This property is read-only.

Names of the response variable categories used to fit the multinomial regression model, specified as a k-by-1 categorical array, character array, logical vector, numeric vector, or cell array of character vectors. k is the number of response categories. ClassNames has the same data type as the response category labels. Note that the software treats string arrays as cell arrays of character vectors.

LogLikelihood — Loglikelihood of fitted model

Read-only: numeric value

This property is read-only.

Loglikelihood of the fitted model, specified as a numeric value, based on the assumption that each response value follows a multinomial distribution. When you create the model object, fitmnr calculates the loglikelihood of the model by taking the sum of the log probabilities for the response data.

ModelCriterion — Criterion for model comparison

Read-only: structure

This property is read-only.

Criterion for model comparison, specified as a structure with these fields:

• AIC — Akaike information criterion. AIC = –2*lnL + 2*m, where lnL is the loglikelihood and m is the number of estimated parameters.

• AICc — Akaike information criterion corrected for the sample size. AICc = AIC + (2*m*(m + 1))/(n – m – 1), where n is the number of observations.

• BIC — Bayesian information criterion. BIC = –2*lnL + m*ln(n).

• CAIC — Consistent Akaike information criterion. CAIC = –2*lnL + m*(ln(n) + 1).

Information criteria are model selection tools you can use to compare multiple models that are fit to the same data. These criteria are likelihood-based measures of model fit that include a penalty for complexity (specifically, the number of parameters). Different information criteria are distinguished by the form of the penalty.

When you compare multiple models, the model with the lowest information criterion value is the best-fitting model. The best-fitting model can vary depending on the criterion used for model comparison.

MnrModel is a multinomial regression model object that contains the results of fitting a nominal multinomial regression model to the data. The Coefficients property contains coefficient statistics for each predictor in meas. The small p-values in the column pValue indicate that all coefficients are statistically significant at the 95% confidence level. fitmnr sorts the categories in species in order of their first appearance. The last category is the default reference category.

To display the sorted names of the response variable categories, use the ClassNames property of MnrModel.

MnrModel.ClassNames

ans = 3×1 cell
    {'setosa'    }
    {'versicolor'}
    {'virginica' }

The output shows that the last category, 'virginica', is the reference category by default.

To get 95% confidence intervals for the fitted coefficient estimates, call the object function coefCI.

MnrModel is a multinomial regression model object that contains the results of fitting an ordinal multinomial regression model to the data. The table output shows coefficient statistics for each predictor variable. The p-values in the column pValue indicate that there is not enough evidence to conclude that the coefficient for the Acceleration term is statistically significant. However, enough evidence exists to conclude that Displacement has a statistically significant effect at the 99% confidence level.

Display the possible quantities for car engine cylinders using the ClassNames property.

The last category in the output is the default reference category. The output shows that the reference category corresponds to cars with eight-cylinder engines.

Use plotSlice to plot stacked histograms of the probabilities of a car having each number of cylinders as the value of the predictor variable Displacement changes. By default, plotSlice fixes the value of Acceleration at its training data mean.

plotSlice(MnrModel,"stackedhist",PredictorToVary="Displacement")
hold on
lgd = legend;
title(lgd, "Number of cylinders");

The plot shows that the probability of a car having more cylinders increases as the car displacement increases, which is consistent with the small p-value for the Displacement model term.

MnrModel is a multinomial regression model object that contains the results of fitting an ordinal multinomial regression model to the data. The table output shows coefficient statistics for each of the predictor variable. The p-values in the column pValue indicate that there is not enough evidence to conclude that the coefficient for the Acceleration term is statistically significant. However, enough evidence exists to conclude that Displacement has a statistically significant effect at the 99% confidence level.

The reference category corresponds to cars with eight-cylinder engines.

Plot the partial dependence of the reference category probability on the Displacement predictor by using the plotPartialDependence object function.

plotPartialDependence(MnrModel,2,8)

The plot shows that the probability of a car being in the reference category increases sharply when the value of Displacement reaches approximately 250.

Deviance

Deviance is a generalization of the residual sum of squares. It measures the goodness of fit compared to a saturated model.

The deviance of a model M₁ is twice the difference between the loglikelihood of the model M₁ and the saturated model M_s. A saturated model is a model with the maximum number of parameters that you can estimate.

For example, if you have n observations with potentially different response values y_i, i = 1, 2, ..., n, then you can define a saturated model (with n parameters) that perfectly predicts the responses. Let L(b,y) denote the maximum value of the likelihood function for a model with the parameters b. Then the deviance of the model M₁ is

$$-2\left(\log L\left(b_1,y\right)-\log L\left(b_S,y\right)\right),$$

where b₁ and b_s contain the estimated parameters for the model M₁ and the saturated model, respectively. The deviance has a chi-square distribution with n – p degrees of freedom, where n is the number of parameters in the saturated model and p is the number of parameters in the model M₁.

Assume you have two different multinomial regression models M₁ and M₂, and M₁ has a subset of the terms in M₂. You can evaluate the fit of the models by comparing the deviances D₁ and D₂ of the two models. The difference of the deviances is

$$\begin{array}{l}D=D_2-D_1=-2\left(\log L\left(b_2,y\right)-\log L\left(b_S,y\right)\right)+2\left(\log L\left(b_1,y\right)-\log L\left(b_S,y\right)\right)\\ =-2\left(\log L\left(b_2,y\right)-\log L\left(b_1,y\right)\right).\end{array}$$

Asymptotically, the difference D has a chi-square distribution with degrees of freedom v equal to the difference in the number of parameters estimated in M₁ and M₂. You can obtain the p-value for this test by using 1 – chi2cdf(D,v,"upper").

Typically, you examine D using a model M₂ with a constant term and no predictors. Therefore, D has a chi-square distribution with p – 1 degrees of freedom. If the dispersion is estimated, the difference divided by the estimated dispersion has an F distribution with p – 1 numerator degrees of freedom and n – p denominator degrees of freedom.
