  2. Normalization (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization_(statistics)

    Normalizing residuals when parameters are estimated, particularly across different data points in regression analysis. Standardized moment

  3. Residual sum of squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_sum_of_squares

    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 ...

  4. Errors and residuals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_and_residuals

    In regression analysis, the distinction between errors and residuals is subtle and important, and leads to the concept of studentized residuals. Given an unobservable function that relates the independent variable to the dependent variable – say, a line – the deviations of the dependent variable observations from this function are the ...

  5. Least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_squares

    The result of fitting a set of data points with a quadratic function Conic fitting a set of points using least-squares approximation. In regression analysis, least squares is a parameter estimation method based on minimizing the sum of the squares of the residuals (a residual being the difference between an observed value and the fitted value provided by a model) made in the results of each ...

  6. PRESS statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRESS_statistic

    Models that are over-parameterised (over-fitted) would tend to give small residuals for observations included in the model-fitting but large residuals for observations that are excluded. The PRESS statistic has been extensively used in lazy learning and locally linear learning to speed-up the assessment and the selection of the neighbourhood size.

  7. Heteroskedasticity-consistent standard errors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteroskedasticity...

    In regression and time-series modelling, basic forms of models make use of the assumption that the errors or disturbances u i have the same variance across all observation points. When this is not the case, the errors are said to be heteroskedastic, or to have heteroskedasticity , and this behaviour will be reflected in the residuals u ^ i ...

  8. Studentized residual - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studentized_residual

    On the other hand, the internally studentized residuals are in the range , where ν = n − m is the number of residual degrees of freedom. If t i represents the internally studentized residual, and again assuming that the errors are independent identically distributed Gaussian variables, then: [2]

  9. Linear least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_least_squares

    Linear Template Fit (LTF) [7] combines a linear regression with (generalized) least squares in order to determine the best estimator. The Linear Template Fit addresses the frequent issue, when the residuals cannot be expressed analytically or are too time consuming to be evaluate repeatedly, as it is often the case in iterative minimization ...
