Logistic regression assumes that the response is random, but governed by a probability. In your case, the boundaries seem random, while the observations between the boundaries are deterministic. | |

| Jan 17, 2018 at 19:43 | comment | added | dfqupwndguerrillamailde | @NickCox what approach do you have in mind? | |
| Jan 17, 2018 at 19:40 | comment | added | Nick Cox | I still think that approach is not promising. It is a backward approach to modelling this kind of data. | |
| Jan 17, 2018 at 19:38 | comment | added | dfqupwndguerrillamailde | @NickCox I could add days into the data so add data for 7 days of the week as the bay will be used differently on weekdays than it is used on weekends? More data means more variety hence a better prediction...? | |
| Jan 17, 2018 at 19:30 | comment | added | Nick Cox | Broadly, my view is that it's unsuitable for your data for the reasons stated. In real data you could presumably focus on times of arrival and departure, which could be expected to vary. | |
| Jan 17, 2018 at 19:25 | comment | added | dfqupwndguerrillamailde | @NickCox Thanks for the in depthanswer. It actually helped me understand it more. I came up with this data as I am using it to predict when a parking bay is occupied. These are pretty much dummy values. In the above data, person A parks his car until 9amish and parks it back at 6pmish. I was under the assumption that logistic regression would be suitable for this approach as there are only 2 outcomes; 0 or 1.. what do you reckon? | |
