Abstract
Have you ever submitted a research paper to an academic conference and had reviews come back? If so, you know that conference papers are scored on a range of criteria, including originality, clarity, significance, and methodology. Have you ever wondered which of these criteria really affects whether a paper is accepted or rejected for presentation at the conference?

Notes
- 1.
The usual way of fitting is by minimizing the least squares, that is, the squared distances of error terms between any data point and the line, or the vertical distance between the line and a point, multiplied by itself.
- 2.
The logit function computes the odds of the two binary outcomes happening for different levels of each independent variable. Then it takes the logarithm of the ratio of those odds (which is continuous but cannot be negative).
