### What do the terms dispersion parameter - deviance - and variance of $y_i$ mean?

I am studying GLMs and I am struggling a bit with some of the concepts. I think mine is more of a theoretical issue. Basically I am a bit confused by the meaning of these three concepts: the variance ...

### Residual deviance for normal distribution with unknown variance?

An older post defines a saturated model as one having as many parameters as observations. I understand how you calculate residual deviance (and its relation to scaled deviance) when the scale is known....
### GLM: Show that in a saturated model, the fitted MLE values $\hat \mu_i = y_i$ for all $i$
Suppose there is a set of $n$ independent observations $y_i$ from the exponential family of distributions. How can we prove that in a saturated GLM model, the fitted MLE values $\hat\mu_i = y_i$ for ...
