Which phenomenon refers to the tendency for extraordinary or unusual events to be followed by more ordinary events?
regression toward the mean
What are interesting properties of zinc?
It is brittle at ordinary temperatures.
What is quantile regression?
Quantile regression is considered a natural extension of ordinary least squares. Instead of estimating the mean of the regressand for a given set of regressors, and instead of minimizing sum of squares, it estimates different values of the regressand across its distribution, and minimizes instead the absolute distances between observations.
What does the acronym OLS mean in the field of statistics?
The acronym OLS as pertaining to the field of statistics stands for Ordinary Least Squares, the standard linear regression procedure. This is the standard approach to overdetermined systems.
What is the difference between multivariate regression and multiple regression?
Although not everyone follows this naming convention, multiple regression typically refers to regression models with a single dependent variable and two or more predictor variables. In multivariate regression, by contrast, there are multiple dependent variables, and any number of predictors. Using this naming convention, some people further distinguish "multivariate multiple regression," a term which makes explicit that there are two or more dependent variables as well as two or more independent variables.In short, multiple regression is by far the more familiar form, although logically and computationally the two forms are extremely similar.Multivariate regression is most useful for more special problems such as compound tests of coefficients. For example, you might want to know if SAT scores have the same predictive power for a student's grades in the second semester of college as they do in the first. One option would be to run two separate simple regressions and eyeball the results to see if the coefficients look similar. But if you want a formal probability test of whether the relationship differs, you could run it instead as a multivariate regression analysis. The coefficient estimates will be the same, but you will be able to directly test for their equality or other properties of interest.In practical terms, the way you produce a multivariate analysis using statistical software is always at least a little different from multiple regression. In some packages you can use the same commands for both but with different options; but in a number of packages you use completely different commands to obtain a multivariate analysis.A final note is that the term "multivariate regression" is sometimes confused with nonlinear regression; in other words, the regression flavors besides Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) linear regression. Those forms are more accurately called nonlinear or generalized linear models because there is nothing distinctively "multivariate" about them in the sense described above. Some of them have commonly used multivariate forms, too, but these are often called "multinomial" regressions in the case of models for categorical dependent variables.
Why in Cox's regression model partial likelihood is used instead of ordinary likelihood function?
Cox model applies to observations in time (i.e. processes, or functions of t). The true likelihood for that function would be a function of (functions of t), obtained by expressing the probability in a space of (functions of t) as [density]*[reference measure on (functions of t)] The factor [density] would be the true likelihood. The partial likelihood is a factor of [density] involving only the parameters of interest: [density] = [partial likelihood]*[....] There is no point in working with the full likelihood, in the sense that the nice properties of the MLE apply to parameters from a finite dimensional space, and would not automatically apply to the full likelihood in the space of (functiosn of t). That is why, for example, one needs to rework the large sample theory of estimators based on partial likelihood.
What is tropical math?
Tropical math is a kind of arithmetic and algebra in which addition of two number is their minimum and multiplication is their sum. This has some properties similar to ordinary arithmetic and algebra but other properties are different.
What are the three types of black hole?
ordinary - the only property this has is massspinning - this has the properties of mass and spincharged - this has the properties of mass and chargeNote: you can also have black holes with all three properties: mass, spin, and charge. but these are not considered a separate type, just a combination of 2 and 3.
What has the author Fadhil Attiya Chyad written?
Fadhil Attiya Chyad has written: 'The effect of metastable zirconia on the properties of ordinary Portland cement'
What is the Gauss-Markov theory?
In statistics, the Gauss-Markov theorem states that in a linear regression model in which the errors have expectation zero and are uncorrelated and have equal variances, the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) of the coefficients is given by the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator, provided it exists.
What similarities do hydrogen and oxygen share?
Both are colourless, odourless gases under ordinary conditions. For more properties you might consider viewing their respective wikipedia pages.
Why we want to know mechanical properties of materials?
To ensure that the materials are appropriate for objects that are made out of them. You do not make electricity cables out of ordinary glass or fibre-optic cables out of wood!
