  2. Errors and residuals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_and_residuals

    If the data exhibit a trend, the regression model is likely incorrect; for example, the true function may be a quadratic or higher order polynomial. If they are random, or have no trend, but "fan out" - they exhibit a phenomenon called heteroscedasticity. If all of the residuals are equal, or do not fan out, they exhibit homoscedasticity.

  3. Newey–West estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newey–West_estimator

    A Newey–West estimator is used in statistics and econometrics to provide an estimate of the covariance matrix of the parameters of a regression-type model where the standard assumptions of regression analysis do not apply. [1] It was devised by Whitney K. Newey and Kenneth D. West in 1987, although there are a number of later variants.

  4. Isotonic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotonic_regression

    v. t. e. In statistics and numerical analysis, isotonic regression or monotonic regression is the technique of fitting a free-form line to a sequence of observations such that the fitted line is non-decreasing (or non-increasing) everywhere, and lies as close to the observations as possible.

  5. Standard error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_error

    For correlated random variables the sample variance needs to be computed according to the Markov chain central limit theorem.. Independent and identically distributed random variables with random sample size

  6. Variance of the mean and predicted responses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_of_the_mean_and...

    In regression, mean response (or expected response) and predicted response, also known as mean outcome (or expected outcome) and predicted outcome, are values of the dependent variable calculated from the regression parameters and a given value of the independent variable. The values of these two responses are the same, but their calculated ...

  7. Heteroskedasticity-consistent standard errors - Wikipedia

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

    The topic of heteroskedasticity-consistent ( HC) standard errors arises in statistics and econometrics in the context of linear regression and time series analysis. These are also known as heteroskedasticity-robust standard errors (or simply robust standard errors ), Eicker–Huber–White standard errors (also Huber–White standard errors or ...

  8. Errors-in-variables models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors-in-variables_models

    Linear model. Linear errors-in-variables models were studied first, probably because linear models were so widely used and they are easier than non-linear ones. Unlike standard least squares regression (OLS), extending errors in variables regression (EiV) from the simple to the multivariable case is not straightforward.

  9. Generalized estimating equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_estimating...

    Generalized estimating equation. In statistics, a generalized estimating equation (GEE) is used to estimate the parameters of a generalized linear model with a possible unmeasured correlation between observations from different timepoints. [1] [2] Although some believe that Generalized estimating equations are robust in everything even with the ...
