Trade-offs in model building

Non-linear relationships

Nonlinear relationships

linear_mod <- lm(y ~ x, data = my_data)

Nonlinear relationships

library(mgcv)
gam_mod <- gam(y ~ s(x), data = my_data)

Basis functions

gam_mod <- gam(y ~ s(x), data = my_data)

coef(gam_mod)

(Intercept)     s(x2).1     s(x2).2    
7.814448        5.272290    5.104941

s(x2).3         s(x2).4     s(x2).5
