Linear Regression

Chapter Objectives

The primary objective of this chapter is to introduce you to how least-squares regression can be used to fit a straight line to measured data. Specific objectives and topics covered are

• Familiarizing yourself with some basic descriptive statistics and the normal distribution.

• Knowing how to compute the slope and intercept of a best-fit straight line with linear regression.

• Knowing how to generate random numbers with MATLAB and how they can be employed for Monte Carlo simulations.

• Knowing how to compute and understand the meaning of the coefficient of determination and the standard error of the estimate.

• Understanding how to use transformations to linearize nonlinear equations so that they can be fit with linear regression.

• Knowing how to implement linear regression with MATLAB.
