A convenience utility to fit regression models more quickly in the main
internal functions for estimation, which usually require logistic regression.
Use of speedglm
appears to provide roughly an order of magnitude
improvement in speed when compared to glm
in custom benchmarks.
fast_glm(reg_form, data, family, ...)
Object of class formula
indicating the regression to
be fit.
Object of class data.frame
containing the data.
Object of class family
from package stats
indicating the error distribution. Appropriate options are limited to
gaussian
and binomial
.
Additional arguments passed to glm
