  Title:	Application of Permutation Methods to the Generalized Linear Model
  Time/Place:	4:00 p.m., Arnold Lab 4th Floor Conference Room   (Coffee at 3:45 p.m.)

  Abstract:   I have extended the general linear model methodology to a univariate generalized linear model based on permutation. This is a distribution-free approach to classical generalized linear models, as discussed by McCullagh and Nelder (1990), for nonlinear models where the expected response can be linearized with a link function. Two permutation schemes are examined along with the distributions of the test statistics produced by them, as discussed in papers by Kennedy (1995, 1996). I have applied this methodology to datasets which may help to clarify and enhance applicability of this methodology.
