Multinomial logistic regressionIn statistics, multinomial logistic regression is a classification method that generalizes logistic regression to multiclass problems, i.e. with more than two possible discrete outcomes. That is, it is a model that is used to predict the probabilities of the different possible outcomes of a categorically distributed dependent variable, given a set of independent variables (which may be real-valued, binary-valued, categorical-valued, etc.).
Spurious relationshipIn statistics, a spurious relationship or spurious correlation is a mathematical relationship in which two or more events or variables are associated but not causally related, due to either coincidence or the presence of a certain third, unseen factor (referred to as a "common response variable", "confounding factor", or "lurking variable"). An example of a spurious relationship can be found in the time-series literature, where a spurious regression is a one that provides misleading statistical evidence of a linear relationship between independent non-stationary variables.
Régression de PoissonEn statistique, la régression de Poisson est un modèle linéaire généralisé utilisé pour les données de comptage et les tableaux de contingence. Cette régression suppose que la variable réponse Y suit une loi de Poisson et que le logarithme de son espérance peut être modélisé par une combinaison linéaire de paramètre inconnus. Soit un vecteur de variables indépendantes, et la variable que l'on cherche à prédire. Réaliser une régression de Poisson revient à supposer que suit une loi de Poisson de paramètre , avec et les paramètres de la régression à estimer, et le produit scalaire standard de .
Conditional probability tableIn statistics, the conditional probability table (CPT) is defined for a set of discrete and mutually dependent random variables to display conditional probabilities of a single variable with respect to the others (i.e., the probability of each possible value of one variable if we know the values taken on by the other variables). For example, assume there are three random variables where each has states.
Loi de probabilité marginaleEn théorie des probabilités et en statistique, la loi marginale d'un vecteur aléatoire, c'est-à-dire d'une variable aléatoire à plusieurs dimensions, est la loi de probabilité d'une de ses composantes. Autrement dit, la loi marginale est une variable aléatoire obtenue par « projection » d'un vecteur contenant cette variable. Par exemple, pour un vecteur aléatoire , la loi de la variable aléatoire est la deuxième loi marginale du vecteur. Pour obtenir la loi marginale d'un vecteur, on projette la loi sur l'espace unidimensionnel de la coordonnée recherchée.
Design matrixIn statistics and in particular in regression analysis, a design matrix, also known as model matrix or regressor matrix and often denoted by X, is a matrix of values of explanatory variables of a set of objects. Each row represents an individual object, with the successive columns corresponding to the variables and their specific values for that object. The design matrix is used in certain statistical models, e.g., the general linear model.
Linear least squaresLinear least squares (LLS) is the least squares approximation of linear functions to data. It is a set of formulations for solving statistical problems involved in linear regression, including variants for ordinary (unweighted), weighted, and generalized (correlated) residuals. Numerical methods for linear least squares include inverting the matrix of the normal equations and orthogonal decomposition methods. The three main linear least squares formulations are: Ordinary least squares (OLS) is the most common estimator.
Errors-in-variables modelsIn statistics, errors-in-variables models or measurement error models are regression models that account for measurement errors in the independent variables. In contrast, standard regression models assume that those regressors have been measured exactly, or observed without error; as such, those models account only for errors in the dependent variables, or responses. In the case when some regressors have been measured with errors, estimation based on the standard assumption leads to inconsistent estimates, meaning that the parameter estimates do not tend to the true values even in very large samples.
Modèle discriminatifDiscriminative models, also referred to as conditional models, are a class of logistical models used for classification or regression. They distinguish decision boundaries through observed data, such as pass/fail, win/lose, alive/dead or healthy/sick. Typical discriminative models include logistic regression (LR), conditional random fields (CRFs) (specified over an undirected graph), decision trees, and many others. Typical generative model approaches include naive Bayes classifiers, Gaussian mixture models, variational autoencoders, generative adversarial networks and others.
Méthode des moindres carrés ordinairevignette|Graphique d'une régression linéaire La méthode des moindres carrés ordinaire (MCO) est le nom technique de la régression mathématique en statistiques, et plus particulièrement de la régression linéaire. Il s'agit d'un modèle couramment utilisé en économétrie. Il s'agit d'ajuster un nuage de points selon une relation linéaire, prenant la forme de la relation matricielle , où est un terme d'erreur.
