  2. Explanatory power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explanatory_power

    Explanatory power is the ability of a hypothesis or theory to explain the subject matter effectively to which it pertains. Its opposite is explanatory impotence . In the past, various criteria or measures for explanatory power have been proposed.

  3. Linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_regression

    A model with exactly one explanatory variable is a simple linear regression; a model with two or more explanatory variables is a multiple linear regression. [1] This term is distinct from multivariate linear regression, which predicts multiple correlated dependent variables rather than a single dependent variable. [2]

  4. Regression analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_analysis

    In statistical modeling, regression analysis is a set of statistical processes for estimating the relationships between a dependent variable (often called the outcome or response variable, or a label in machine learning parlance) and one or more error-free independent variables (often called regressors, predictors, covariates, explanatory ...

  5. Design matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_matrix

    In statistics and in particular in regression analysis, a design matrix, also known as model matrix or regressor matrix and often denoted by X, is a matrix of values of explanatory variables of a set of objects. Each row represents an individual object, with the successive columns corresponding to the variables and their specific values for ...

  6. Explanatory style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explanatory_style

    Explanatory style is a psychological attribute that indicates how people explain to themselves why they experience a particular event, either positive or negative. Aspects [ edit ]

  7. Exploratory data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploratory_data_analysis

    The variables available in the data collected for this task are: the tip amount, total bill, payer gender, smoking/non-smoking section, time of day, day of the week, and size of the party. The primary analysis task is approached by fitting a regression model where the tip rate is the response variable. The fitted model is

  8. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

    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 ...

  9. Instrumental variables estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_variables...

    In the first stage, each explanatory variable that is an endogenous covariate in the equation of interest is regressed on all of the exogenous variables in the model, including both exogenous covariates in the equation of interest and the excluded instruments. The predicted values from these regressions are obtained:
