3. 3 What is Regression? What is regression? Given n data points best fitto the data. The best fit is generally based on minimizing the sum of the square of the residuals, Residual at a point is Figure. Basic model for regression Sum of the square of the residuals.

4. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu4 Linear Regression-Criterion#1 Given n data pointsbest fit to the data. Does minimizingwork as a criterion, where x y Figure. Linear regression of y vs. x data showing residuals at a typical point, x i.

8. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu8 Linear Regression – Criterion #1 for both regression models of y=4x-4 and y=6. The sum of the residuals is as small as possible, that is zero, but the regression model is not unique. Hence the above criterion of minimizing the sum of the residuals is a bad criterion.

12. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu12 Linear Regression-Criterion#2 Can you find a regression line for whichand has unique regression coefficients? for both regression models of y=4x-4 and y=6. The sum of the errors has been made as small as possible, that is 4, but the regression model is not unique. Hence the above criterion of minimizing the sum of the absolute value of the residuals is also a bad criterion.

13. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu13 Least Squares Criterion The least squares criterion minimizes the sum of the square of the residuals in the model, and also produces a unique line. x y Figure. Linear regression of y vs. x data showing residuals at a typical point, x i.
