A simple technique is presented for obtaining without calculation the best fitting line according to the least squares criterion, provided the points are equally spaced horizontally. A graphic measure ...

Linear regression remains a cornerstone of statistical analysis, offering a framework for modelling relationships between a dependent variable and one or more independent predictors. Over the past ...

In this paper, we examine the feasibility of extending the Akaike information criterion (AIC) for deterministic systems as a potential model selection criteria for stochastic models. We discuss the ...

The CANCORR procedure uses an F approximation (Rao 1973; Kshirsagar 1972) that gives better small sample results than the usual approximation. At least one of the two sets of variables should have an ...

A simulation study was performed to investigate the effects of missing values, typing errors and distorted segregation ratios in molecular marker data on the construction of genetic linkage maps, and ...
