Regression in Engineering and the Applied Sciences
Contenu
This book presents a broad range of regression models including count regression models, constrained and penalised regression models such as ridge, LASSO, and elasticnet regression that are used in various applied science fields. The author describes the historical development of the least squares principle, simple linear regression, and Polynomial regression. In addition, logistic regression and multiple linear regression are discussed at length. A novel method to estimate the slope of linear regression is presented along with an emphasis on the importance of numeric problems.
In addition, this book:
- Combines theory with numerical examples and presents a large number of exercises chosen from various fields
- Utilizes R computer code to further illustrate the applications
- Discusses more than 40 different regression models and is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate level students
