Detecting trend changes in time-series can offer valuable insights for various applications. There are multiple ways to approach this problem, and each method comes with its own set of assumptions and intricacies.
Why Linear Regression is Called “Regression”: regression towards mediocrity
Linear regression is a widely used statistical technique that aims to model the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. It plays a crucial role in various fields, including economics, social sciences, healthcare, and engineering. But have you ever wondered why this powerful modeling technique is called “regression”?
