Meanings of generalise additive in English

Generalised additive models and generalised linear models were used to analyse food source-mortality relationships.

The shape of dose-response relationships was assessed using a continuous exposure variable in generalised additive logistic models with penalised splines.

We examined the association of total mortality with weather indicators and air pollution using generalised additive models (GAMs).

Density distributions for age-0, age-1 and mature fish were modelled as functions of environmental variables using generalised additive mixed effects models.
