In a sport where fights can be won by finishing a fight or go to decision there is a multitude of factors that can influence the outcome of a fight. In an effort to determine which factors are statistically significant to a fight a generalized linear model approach was selected. Since mixed martial arts is a sport in which two competitors fight\, and one is declared a winner\, the result of a fight can be thought of a binary classification problem. \nAdvisor:\nDavid Spade \nCommittee Members:\nDavid Spade\, Chao Zhu\, and Lijing Sun URL:/math/event/ms-thesis-defense-mr-thurmund-jackson/ LOCATION:EMS Building\, Room E408\, E408; 3200 N Cramer St.\, Milwaukee\, WI\, 53211\, United States CATEGORIES:Graduate Student Defenses ORGANIZER;CN="The Department of Mathematical Sciences":MAILTO:math-staff@uwm.edu X-TRIBE-STATUS: GEO:43.0758771;-87.8858312 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=EMS Building Room E408 E408; 3200 N Cramer St. Milwaukee WI 53211 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=E408; 3200 N Cramer St.:geo:-87.8858312,43.0758771 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
