The linear probability model‚ ctd. When Y is binary‚ the linear regression model Yi = β0 + β1Xi + ui is called the linear probability model. • The predicted value is a probability: • E(Y|X=x) = Pr(Y=1|X=x) = prob. that Y = 1 given x • Yˆ = the predicted probability that Yi = 1‚ given X • β1 = change in probability that Y = 1 for a given ∆x: Pr(Y = 1 | X = x + ∆x ) − Pr(Y = 1 | X = x ) β1 = ∆x 5 Example: linear probability model‚ HMDA data Mortgage denial v. ratio of debt payments to income (P/I

Abstract— In this study‚ using tight binding model a simple analytical approach has been proposed to investigate the energy dispersion of graphene under the conditions of different planner strain distribution. Here the change in the angle between the primitive unit vectors due to application of external strain has been taken into consideration to propose the approach. From our proposed model it is found that graphene under relaxed or symmetrical strain distribution is a zero bandgap semiconductor
