2. Cost estimate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimate

   A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a program, project, or operation. The cost estimate is the product of the cost estimating process. The cost estimate has a single total value and may have identifiable component values. A problem with a cost overrun can be avoided with a credible, reliable, and accurate cost estimate.

3. Residual sum of squares - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_sum_of_squares

   Residual sum of squares. In statistics, the residual sum of squares (RSS), also known as the sum of squared residuals (SSR) or the sum of squared estimate of errors (SSE), is the sum of the squares of residuals (deviations predicted from actual empirical values of data). It is a measure of the discrepancy between the data and an estimation ...

4. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

   v. t. e. In statistics, simple linear regression (SLR) is a linear regression model with a single explanatory variable. [1][2][3][4][5] That is, it concerns two-dimensional sample points with one independent variable and one dependent variable (conventionally, the x and y coordinates in a Cartesian coordinate system) and finds a linear function ...

5. Least squares - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_squares

   The result of fitting a set of data points with a quadratic function Conic fitting a set of points using least-squares approximation. The method of least squares is a parameter estimation method in regression analysis based on minimizing the sum of the squares of the residuals (a residual being the difference between an observed value and the fitted value provided by a model) made in the ...

6. PRESS statistic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRESS_statistic

   It is calculated as the sum of squares of the prediction residuals for those observations. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Specifically, the PRESS statistic is an exhaustive form of cross-validation , as it tests all the possible ways that the original data can be divided into a training and a validation set.

7. Explained sum of squares - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explained_sum_of_squares

   Definition. The explained sum of squares (ESS) is the sum of the squares of the deviations of the predicted values from the mean value of a response variable, in a standard regression model — for example, yi = a + b1x1i + b2x2i + ... + εi, where yi is the i th observation of the response variable, xji is the i th observation of the j th ...
