Regression

Types of regression
  1. Simple Linear Regression
    y=b_0+b_1x
    y=b_0+b_1x^2
  2. Multiple Linear Regression
    y=b_0+b_1x_1+b_2x_2+b_3x_3+.........+b_nx_n
    y=b_0+b_1x_1+b_2x_2^2+b_3x_3^3+.........+b_nx_n^n
  3. Simple Non-Linear Regression
    y=b_0+b_1^2x
    y=b_0+b_1^2x^2
  4. Multiple Non-Linear Regression
    y=b_0+b_1x_1+b_2^2x_2+b_3^3x_3+.........+b_n^nx_n
    y=b_0+b_1x_1+b_2^2x_2^2+b_3^3x_3^3+.........+b_n^nx_n^n
b_0, b_1, b_2, b_3, ........., b_n=Parameters/Regression\ Coefficients
x_1, x_2, x_3, .........,x_n=Independent\ Variable
y=Dependent\ Variable
