A Log-Linear Modeling Task is a functional modeling task that uses a log-linear model.
- Context:
- It can be solved by a Log-Linear Modeling System (that implements a log-linear modeling algorithm).
- See: Linear Modeling Task.

- Log-linear analysis is a technique used in statistics to examine the relationship between more than two categorical variables. The technique is used for both hypothesis testing and model building. In both these uses, models are tested to find the most parsimonious (i.e., least complex) model that best accounts for the variance in the observed frequencies. (A Pearson's chi-square test could be used instead of log-linear analysis, but that technique only allows for two of the variables to be compared at a time. )
