    Study Notes

    Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)

    • An ANOVA table typically contains six columns: Source of Variation, degrees of freedom (df), sums of squares (SS), mean square (MS), the variance ratio or F statistic (F), and the P-value (P).
    • The estimated variance of the errors (s²e) is given by MSE.
    • R² can be calculated as the ratio SSR/SST.

    Simple Linear Regression Model

    • The simple linear regression model is defined as Yi = α + βXi + εi, where Yi and Xi are the i-th observations of the variables Y and X, α and β are fixed parameters, and εi is a random variable with a normal distribution.
    • Assumptions of the model include:
      • Xi takes values that are either fixed or random but uncorrelated with the error terms εi.
      • The error terms εi are uncorrelated with one another.
      • The error terms εi have a mean of zero and a variance of σε², and have a normal distribution.

    Regression as Statistical Modelling

    • Regression is used to test the significance of the overall regression equation, individual coefficients, and develop prediction intervals for forecasts.
    • The F-test is used to assess the overall significance of the model.
    • The p-value indicates the probability of obtaining a result at least as extreme as the one observed, assuming that the null hypothesis is true.

    Validating Simple Regression Model

    • The F-test compares a model with no predictors to the specified model with predictors to determine if the overall model is statistically significant.
    • A low p-value (typically less than 0.05) suggests that the observed result is unlikely to have occurred by chance, indicating statistical significance.

    Time Series Regression

    • Time series regression involves analyzing data over time periods, as shown in the example of sales data over 10 time periods.
    • A scatterplot is used to visualize the relationship between Y and X, with Y values plotted against the vertical axis and X values against the horizontal axis.

    Simple Linear Regression: A Descriptive Technique

    • Least square estimation is used to find the values of a and b that provide the best fit to the data.
    • The line Ŷ = a + bX is used to estimate the linear relationship between Y and X.
    • Hypothesis testing is used to make decisions or inferences about a population based on sample data.

    T-test for Individual Coefficients

    • T-tests can be used to assess the statistical significance of parameters, such as the intercept and slope values.
    • The t-statistic (α or β) is calculated as the parameter value divided by its standard error.
    • A small p-value indicates that the estimated parameter significantly differs from zero.
