Study Notes
- The text discusses linear and non-linear models.
- An exponential regression model is mentioned.
- The coefficients in this model can be interpreted as elasticities.
- There is no further explanation on what the elasticities refer to.
- The text is brief and lacks context or examples.
- It is unclear what the purpose of the models discussed is.
- No specific industry or field is mentioned.
- No data or statistical analysis is presented.
- The text is likely part of a larger document or lecture.
- Overall, the text is limited in scope and information provided.
- The classical linear regression model (CLRM) is used to observe data for x and y.
- The CLRM assumes that the error terms u have zero mean, constant variance, and are linearly independent of each other.
- The CLRM also assumes that there is no relationship between the error terms and corresponding x variable.
- An alternative assumption to the above is that the x variables are non-stochastic or fixed in repeated samples.
- A fifth assumption is required to make inferences about population parameters from sample parameters, which is that u is normally distributed.
- The estimators of alpha and beta from the sample parameters are given by OLS.
- OLS estimators are Best Linear Unbiased Estimators (BLUE) and have minimum variance among the class of linear unbiased estimators.
- OLS estimators are consistent and unbiased, and their standard errors can be used to measure their reliability or precision.
- The variance of the disturbance term can be estimated by the sample counterpart to u.
- The sum of squares of x about their mean affects the coefficient variances, with larger sums leading to smaller variances.
