The right side of the figure shows the log transformation of the price: e.g. cell G6 contains the formula =LN(C6). We next run regression data analysis on the log-transformed data. We could use the ExcelRegressiontool, although here we use the Real StatisticsLinear Regressiondata analysis ...
I then perform a logistic regression of the simulated data using the dummy variable formulation and compare predicted probabilities to the parameters used to create the data. Apologies in advance if I am missing Nick's previous point, or of this seems absurdly obvious. If anybody knows of a mo...
In regression models involving economic variables such as income, log transformation is typically taken to achieve approximate normality and stabilize the variance. However, often the interest is predicting individual values or means of the variable in the original scale. Under a nested error model ...

nonlinear regressionA log transformation is often applied to nonlinear models with an assumed multiplicative error structure. Then the parameters are estimated using ordinary least squares (o. l. s. ) and back transformed predictions made. This paper examines the bias involved with this procedure ...
transformation of the response in regression and to transformation of a homogeneous sample. There are severalparametric familiesofdata transformationin common use: the power or Box–Cox family which includes thelog transformation, the power-plus-shift family, and theexponential family. In addition, ...
In regression models for categorical data a linear model is typically related to the response variables via a transformation of probabilities called the link function. We introduce an approach based on two link functions for binary data named log-mean (LM) and log-mean linear (LML), respectively...

Figure 1 shows an example of how a log transformation can make patterns more visible. Both graphs plot the brain weight of animals as a function of their body weight. The raw weights are shown in the upper panel; the log-transformed weights are plotted in the lower panel....
