1. 12.3 Least Squares Procedure Aðferð minnstu fervika The Least-squares procedure obtains estimates of the linear equation coefficients b 0 and b 1, in the model by minimizing the sum of the squared residuals e i This results in a procedure stated as Choose b 0 and b 1 so that the quantity is minimized. We use differential calculus to obtain the coefficient estimators that minimize SSE..

Aðferð minnstu kvaðrata The slope coefficient estimator is Metill fyrir hallatöluna er And the constant or intercept indicator is skurðpunkt við y-ás We also note that the regression line always goes through the mean X, Y. Við tökum það einnig fram að matið fer ávallt í gegnum meðaltöl X, Y.

3. Standard Assumptions for the Linear Regression Model The following assumptions are used to make inferences about the population linear model by using the estimated coefficients: 1.The x’s are fixed numbers, or they are realizations of random variable, X that are independent of the error terms,  i ’s. In the latter case, inference is carried out conditionally on the observed values of the x’s. 2.The error terms are random variables with mean 0 and the same variance,  2. The later is called homoscedasticity or uniform variance. 3.The random error terms,  I, are not correlated with one another, so that

7. Coefficient of Determination, R 2 Ákvörðunarstuðullinn Coefficient of Determination The Coefficient of Determination for a regression equation is defined as Ákvörðunarstuðullinn er skilgreindur sem This quantity varies from 0 to 1 and higher values indicate a better regression. Caution should be used in making general interpretations of R 2 because a high value can result from either a small SSE or a large SST or both. Þessi stærð er á bilinu 0 til 1 og gefur til kynna hlutfall útskýrðs breytileika af heildarbreytileika.

9. Estimation of Model Error Variance Mat á dreifni í truflun aðfallsjöfnu þýðis The quantity SSE is a measure of the total squared deviation about the estimated regression line, and e i is the residual. An estimator for the variance of the population model error is Stærðin SSE, kallast summa fervika afgangsliða, og ei kallast afgangsliður. Metill fyrir breytileika í truflun þýðisjöfnunnar er Division by n – 2 instead of n – 1 results because the simple regression model uses two estimated parameters, b 0 and b 1, instead of one. Við deilum með n – 2 í stað n – 1 vegna þess að einfalda líkan aðfallsgreiningar byggir á mati á tveim óþekktum stikum, b0 og b1.

Basis for Inference About the Population Regression Slope Grunnur fyrir ályktanir um halla línunnar Let  1 be a population regression slope and b 1 its least squares estimate based on n pairs of sample observations. Then, if the standard regression assumptions hold and it can also be assumed that the errors  i are normally distributed, the random variable Látum  1 vera halla aðfallsjöfnu þýðis og b 1 er mat á hallatölunni byggða á n pörum gagna. Þá gildir að ef klassískar forsendur aðfallsgreiningar halda og hægt er að ganga út frá því að  i séu normaldreifð þá verður hendingin is distributed as Student’s t with (n – 2) degrees of freedom. Student’s t dreifð með (n – 2) frígráður. In addition the central limit theorem enables us to conclude that this result is approximately valid for a wide range of non-normal distributions and large sample sizes, n.
