Inference for Simple Linear Regression
... • Two intervals can be used to discover how closely the predicted value will match the true value of y. – Prediction interval – predicts y for a given value of x (price prediction for a specific car with 40,000 miles on odometer) – Confidence interval – estimates the average y for a given x (estimat ...

Counting on count data models
... maximum likelihood estimator, as an instance of pseudo maximum likelihood estimation, has similar properties [2]. Such robustness is of great practical relevance, as it means that the estimators for the parameters in the Poisson regression model are consistent even if the assumption for the distribu ...

The shape of incomplete preferences
... 1. If probabilities alone are considered to be imprecise, then preferences can be represented by a set of probability distributions {p(s)} and together with a unique, exogenously-specified utility function u(c). The set of probability distributions is typically convex, so the representation can be d ...

State-dependent Utilities - Carnegie Mellon University
... There are many other equivalent representations in terms of probabilities Q, which are mutually absolutely continuous with P, and state-dependent utilities V, which differ from U by possibly different positive affine transformations in each state of nature. We describe an example in which there are ...

Linear Regression
... Linear regression is a commonly used procedure in statistical analysis. One of the main objectives in linear regression analysis is to test hypotheses about the slope (sometimes called the regression coefficient) of the regression equation. This module calculates power and sample size for testing wh ...

If we focus on the key Relative Rate of Assistance to Agriculture (RRA) variable in the agricultural distortions database, we see in Figure 1 that this is extremely skewed in its distribution. Around 90 percent of the observations on RRA are between -1 and +1 but th ...
