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.
