Yule (1926) and Granger and Newbold (1974) were the first to draw attention to the problem of spurious correlation and find solutions on how to address it in time series analysis. [1] [2] Given two completely unrelated but integrated (non-stationary) time series, the regression analysis of one on the other will tend to produce an apparently ...
A variation of the Theil–Sen estimator, the repeated median regression of Siegel (1982), determines for each sample point (x i, y i), the median m i of the slopes (y j − y i)/(x j − x i) of lines through that point, and then determines the overall estimator as the median of these medians.
First, regression analysis is widely used for prediction and forecasting, where its use has substantial overlap with the field of machine learning. Second, in some situations regression analysis can be used to infer causal relationships between the independent and dependent variables. Importantly, regressions by themselves only reveal ...
Linear errors-in-variables models were studied first, probably because linear models were so widely used and they are easier than non-linear ones. Unlike standard least squares regression (OLS), extending errors in variables regression (EiV) from the simple to the multivariable case is not straightforward, unless one treats all variables in the same way i.e. assume equal reliability.
The CRAN task view on Time Series contains links to most of these. Mathematica has a complete library of time series functions including ARMA. [11] MATLAB includes functions such as arma, ar and arx to estimate autoregressive, exogenous autoregressive and ARMAX models. See System Identification Toolbox and Econometrics Toolbox for details.
Regression is a statistical technique used to help investigate how variation in one or more variables predicts or explains variation in another variable. Bivariate regression aims to identify the equation representing the optimal line that defines the relationship between two variables based on a particular data set.
In statistics, the Phillips–Perron test (named after Peter C. B. Phillips and Pierre Perron) is a unit root test. [1] That is, it is used in time series analysis to test the null hypothesis that a time series is integrated of order 1.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to regression analysis: Regression analysis – use of statistical techniques for learning about the relationship between one or more dependent variables ( Y ) and one or more independent variables ( X ).
