Validation and performance analysis of binary logistic regression model

Application of logistic regression modeling techniques without subsequent performance analysis regarding predictive ability of the fitted model can result in poorly fitting results that inaccurately predict outcomes on new subjects. Model validation is possibly the most important step in the model b...
