Basic Understanding of Quantitative Modelling

Basic Understanding of Quantitative Modelling

The main goal is to show how a quantitative model could be recognized among daily routines. The model is a mathematical representation of our knowledge about some investigated phenomenon. See the presentation.

Singular Value Decomposition and its applications

Singular Value Decomposition and its applications

What is Singular Value Decomposition? In linear algebra, singular value decomposition (SVD) is a factorization of a real or complex matrix. It is a generalization of the eigendecomposition of a normal square matrix with...

Least Squares Linear Fit

Least Squares Linear Fit

It shows how to use minimal least squares method to fit data. We will generate one-dimensional regression sample set. Tree linear regression models will be constructed, their parameters will be tuned according to the...

Index construction: expert-statistical technique

Index construction: expert-statistical technique

Introduction There are lots of ways to construct indices. However, when algorithms are chosen and some results obtained, the following question arises: – How to show adequacy of the calculated indices? To answer the...

Multivariate Regression Composer (MVR)

Multivariate Regression Composer (MVR)

The Multivariate Regression Composer (MVR) is an open-source software for generating and selecting non-linear regression models in Matlab. The basic version of the MVR Composer could be downloaded as a zipped file (release 61)...

Mark up time series, demo

Mark up the time series – demo

Time series has similar patterns. A pattern consists of several segments. Each segment could be represented as a simple parametric regression function. The whole pattern is the sequence of concatenated regression functions.The following information...

Least angle regression

Least angle regression (LARS)

LARS is one of the most effective algorithms to select linear regression models. It is not so greedy as step-wise regression and takes not so much steps as Lasso. Contents Create synthetic data Run...
