Study Notes
Least Squares Prediction
- Predict the value of y for a hypothetical x0
- Assume the simple linear regression (SLR) model holds (SLR1-SLR5)
- y0 = β1 + β2*x0 + ε0 (1)
- Expected value of y0 given x0: E[y0|x0] = β1 + β2*x0
- Predicted value of y0: ŷ0 = b1 + b2*x0 (2)
Forecast Error
- Define the forecast error: f = y0 - ŷ0 = (β1 + β2*x0 + ε0) - (b1 + b2*x0) (3)
- The expected value of the forecast error is zero: E[f] = 0
- ŷ0 is an unbiased predictor of y0
Variance of the Forecast Error
- Variance of the forecast error: var(f) = σ2 * [1 + (1/N) + ((x0 - x̄)2/∑(xi - x̄)2)] (4)
- Depends on
- Model uncertainty (σ2)
- Sample size (N)
- Variance of the regressor (x̄)
- Value of (x0 - x̄)2
Estimated Forecast Error Variance
- var(f) = σ2 * [1 + (1/N) + ((x0 - x̄)2/∑(xi - x̄)2)]
Standard Error
- Standard error of the forecast (se(f)) is the square root of the variance of the forecast error.
Prediction Interval
- Prediction interval: ŷ0 ± t(n-2, α/2) * se(f)
