The extension to multiple and/or vector-valued predictor variables (denoted with a capital X) is known as multiple linear regression, also known as multivariable linear regression (not to be confused with multivariate linear regression). [10] Multiple linear regression is a generalization of simple linear regression to the case of more than one ...
One method conjectured by Good and Hardin is =, where is the sample size, is the number of independent variables and is the number of observations needed to reach the desired precision if the model had only one independent variable. [24] For example, a researcher is building a linear regression model using a dataset that contains 1000 patients ().
The general linear model is a generalization of multiple linear regression to the case of more than one dependent variable. If Y , B , and U were column vectors , the matrix equation above would represent multiple linear regression.
In statistics, ordinary least squares (OLS) is a type of linear least squares method for choosing the unknown parameters in a linear regression model (with fixed level-one [clarification needed] effects of a linear function of a set of explanatory variables) by the principle of least squares: minimizing the sum of the squares of the differences between the observed dependent variable (values ...
Although polynomial regression fits a nonlinear model to the data, as a statistical estimation problem it is linear, in the sense that the regression function E(y | x) is linear in the unknown parameters that are estimated from the data. For this reason, polynomial regression is considered to be a special case of multiple linear regression. [1]
In econometrics, the seemingly unrelated regressions (SUR) [1]: 306 [2]: 279 [3]: 332 or seemingly unrelated regression equations (SURE) [4] [5]: 2 model, proposed by Arnold Zellner in (1962), is a generalization of a linear regression model that consists of several regression equations, each having its own dependent variable and potentially ...
One of the first developments in simultaneous inference, it was devised by Working and Hotelling for the simple linear regression model in 1929. [1] It provides a confidence region for multiple mean responses, that is, it gives the upper and lower bounds of more than one value of a dependent variable at several levels of the independent ...
Multilevel models (also known as hierarchical linear models, linear mixed-effect models, mixed models, nested data models, random coefficient, random-effects models, random parameter models, or split-plot designs) are statistical models of parameters that vary at more than one level. [1] An example could be a model of student performance that ...
