- 3. 3 What is Regression Analysis?
- 4. 4 Regression analysis is an important tool for modelling and analyzing data Regression analysis is a form of predictive modelling technique which investigates the relationship between a dependent (target) and independent variable (s) (predictor). This technique is used for forecasting, time series modelling and finding the causal effect relationship between the variables.
- 5. 5 Why do we use Regression Analysis?
- 6. 6 Let’s say, you want to estimate growth in sales of a company based on current economic conditions. You have the recent company data which indicates that the growth in sales is around two and a half times the growth in the economy. Using this insight, we can predict future sales of the company based on current & past information. It indicates the significant relationships between dependent variable and independent variable. It indicates the strength of impact of multiple independent variables on a

- 9. 9 ● There is a linear relationship between the 2 variables, Input (X) and Output (Y), of the data it has learnt from. ● Input vs Output Variable ○ Input variable is Independent Variable ○ Output variable is Dependent Variable. Y= aX+b
- 10. 10 There is a positive linear relationship between TV advertising costs and Sales. You may also summarize by saying that spending more on TV advertising predicts a higher number of sales.
- 11. 11 ● Positive Linear Relationship ● Negative Linear Relationship
- 12. 12 Use Cases of Linear Regression ● Prediction of trends and Sales targets ○ To predict how industry is performing or how many sales targets industry may achieve in the future. ● Price Prediction ○ Using regression to predict the change in price of stock or product. ● Risk Management ○ Using regression to the analysis of Risk Management in the financial and insurance sector.
- 13. 13 Assumptions of Linear Regression
- 14. 14 Assumptions of Linear Regression: Linearity ● Linearity: It states that the dependent variable Y should be linearly related to independent variables. This assumption can be checked by plotting a scatter plot between both variables.
- 15. 15 Assumptions of Linear Regression: Normality ● Normality: The X and Y variables should be normally distributed. Histograms, KDE plots, Q-Q plots can be used to check the Normality assumption.
- 16. 16 Assumptions of Linear Regression: Homoscedasticity ● Homoscedasticity: The variance of the error terms should be constant i.e the spread of residuals should be constant for all values of X. This assumption can be checked by plotting a residual plot. ○ If the assumption is violated then the points will form a funnel shape otherwise they will
- 17. 17 Independence/No Multicollinearity: ● The variables should be independent of each other i.e no correlation should be there between the independent variables. ● To check the assumption, we can use a correlation matrix or VIF score. If the VIF score is greater than 5 then the variables are highly correlated. ● Here (in Image), a high correlation is present between x5 and x6 variables.
- 18. 18 The error terms should be normally distributed. ● Q-Q plots and Histograms can be used to check the distribution of error terms.
- 19. 19 No Autocorrelation: ● The error terms should be independent of each other. Autocorrelation can be tested using the Durbin Watson test. The null hypothesis assumes that there is no autocorrelation. The value of the test lies between 0 to 4. If the value of the test is 2 then there is no autocorrelation.
- 20. 20 Performance Evaluation of Regression The performance of the regression model can be evaluated by using various metrics like MAE, MAPE, RMSE, R-squared etc.
- 21. 21 Performance Evaluation of Regression ● Mean Absolute Error (MAE) ● Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) ● Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) ● R-squared values ● Adjusted R-squared values
- 22. 22 Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) ● RMSE calculates the square root average of the sum of the squared difference between the actual and the predicted values.
