This is a clear trend. ANOVA gives p = 0.091, because the overall variance exceeds the means, whereas linear trend estimation gives p = 0.012. However, should the data have been collected at four time points in the same individuals, linear trend estimation would be inappropriate, and a two-way (repeated measures) ANOVA would have been applied.
Linear regression can be used to estimate the values of β 1 and β 2 from the measured data. This model is non-linear in the time variable, but it is linear in the parameters β 1 and β 2; if we take regressors x i = (x i1, x i2) = (t i, t i 2), the model takes on the standard form
In statistics, generalized least squares (GLS) is a method used to estimate the unknown parameters in a linear regression model.It is used when there is a non-zero amount of correlation between the residuals in the regression model.
Log-linear analysis starts with the saturated model and the highest order interactions are removed until the model no longer accurately fits the data. Specifically, at each stage, after the removal of the highest ordered interaction, the likelihood ratio chi-square statistic is computed to measure how well the model is fitting the data.
Linear-fractional programming — objective is ratio of linear functions, constraints are linear Fractional programming — objective is ratio of nonlinear functions, constraints are linear; Nonlinear complementarity problem (NCP) — find x such that x ≥ 0, f(x) ≥ 0 and x T f(x) = 0; Least squares — the objective function is a sum of squares
Ordinary linear regression predicts the expected value of a given unknown quantity (the response variable, a random variable) as a linear combination of a set of observed values (predictors). This implies that a constant change in a predictor leads to a constant change in the response variable (i.e. a linear-response model). This is appropriate ...
The general regression model with n observations and k explanators, the first of which is a constant unit vector whose coefficient is the regression intercept, is = + where y is an n × 1 vector of dependent variable observations, each column of the n × k matrix X is a vector of observations on one of the k explanators, is a k × 1 vector of true coefficients, and e is an n × 1 vector of the ...
