Statistical assumptions? #131

Closed shenjean closed 3 years ago

Hi - I just have a very basic question on the statistical assumptions of the songbird approach. For example, do each covariate have to follow a normal distribution? Do the covariates have to be independent from each other? etc. Thank you!
