LogXact 9
What's new | System Requirements | Further Information
LogXact is an exciting product. No other logistic regression software can match
its ability to analyze small, sparse, or imbalanced binary data.
- It provides exact answers for those questionable studies in which you thought you had a
reasonably large sample size, but unfortunately observed only a handful of responses.
- It performs both unconditional and conditional maximum likelihood inference for problems that are
too difficult for the exact inference.
- Its user manual gives a detailed text-book-like exposition of the theory underlying unconditional
maximum likelihood inference, conditional maximum likelihood inference, and conditional exact
inference, all illustrated with numerous real examples. The manual is very convenient, with a large
index and a detailed table of contents.
- Its friendly spreadsheet-like data editors bring you close to your data and facilitate model building.
You can import ASCII, SAS, SPSS, SYSTAT and EGRET data sets directly into LogXact.
Windows® 7 and Vista support
Cytel works continuously to allow our customers a choice of supported operating systems. Cytel's StatXact® and LogXact® are
now both approved for use in Windows® 7 and Windows® Vista.
R integration
Users can now use R scripts in conjunction with Cytel’s exact statistics software. Computers with R 2.3 or newer may run existing
R files or write and run R programs with the R output displayed in LogXact®.
R programs can also run analyses of either StatXact® or LogXact® datasets. All R outputs are displayed in the Cytel
Studio interface (except R plots).
In addition to R, Cytel continues support of its own batch language to for custom analysis and regression calculations
automation.
Latest validated methods include
- Best subset selection in binary logistic regression
- Force inclusion of variables to the best subset
- Profile Likelihood Confidence Intervals for parameters of binary logistic regression
- Firth's correction to Profile Likelihood Confidence Intervals
See Penalized Maximum Likelihood Method (PMLE) example of Firth's correction, the procedure for obtaining the Profile
Likelihood-based confidence intervals for the parameters with the Venzon and Moolgavkar algorithm (1988)).
