Linear Regression
Polynomial Regression
red curve fits the data better than the green curve= situations
where the relation. between the dependent and independent
variable seems to be non-linear we can deploy Polynomial
Regression Models.
Quantile (percentile) Regression
• generally use it when outliers, high
skeweness and heteroscedasticity
exist in the data.
• aims to estimate either the
conditional median or
other quantiles of the response
variable
• we try to estimate the quantile of
the dependent variable given the
values of X’s.
Logistic Regression
• dependent variable is binary
• y follows binomial distribution
and hence is not normal
• the error terms are not normally
distributed.
Cox Regression (survival analysis;
proportional hazards model)
• investigating the effect of several variables
upon the time a specified event takes to
happen
• time-to-event data e.g Time from first
heart attack to the second
• Dual targets are set for the survival model
1. A continuous variable representing the
time to event.
2. A binary variable representing the status
whether event occurred or not.
