Ulf H. Olsson Regression Analysis
Ulf H. Olsson Regression analysis OLS Regression parameter St.error T-value P-value Confidence interval R-sq R-sq.adj F-value The error term
Ulf H. Olsson Regression Analysis The error term has constant variance The error term follows a normal distribution with expectation equal to zero The x-variables are independent of the error term The x-variables are linearly independent The dependent variable is normally distributed
Ulf H. Olsson Classical Assumptions Y is stochastic, x1, x2,….,xk are not Linearity in the parameters The error term has const.variance The error term is norm. Distributed with expectation equal to zero The error terms are independent The x-variables are linearly independent
Ulf H. Olsson GAUSS-MARKOV OLS is BLUE given the Classical Assumptions B = Best L=Linear U=Unbiased E=Estimator
