#statistical_method__statisticalmethod a method of analyzing or representing statistical data
supertype: #method a way of doing something, esp. a systematic one; implies an orderly logical arrangement (usually in steps)
part of: #statistics
subtype: #method_of_least_squares__least_squares__leastsquare a method of fitting a curve to data points so as to minimize the sum of the squares of the distances of the points from the curve
subtype: #regression_toward_the_mean__regression__simple_regression the relation between selected values of x and observed values of y (from which the most probable value of y can be predicted for any value of x)
subtype: #linear_regression__rectilinear_regression__rectilinearregression the relation between variables when the regression equation is linear: e.g., y = ax + b
subtype: #curvilinear_regression__curvilinearregression the relation between variables when the regression equation is nonlinear (quadratic or higher order)
subtype: #multiple_regression a statistical technique that predicts values of one variable on the basis of two or more other variables
subtype: #regression_analysis the use of regression to make quantitative predictions of one variable from the values of another
subtype: #correlational_analysis the use of statistical correlation to evaluate the strength of the relations between variables
subtype: #analysis_of_variance__ANOVA a statistical method for making simultaneous comparisons between two or more means; a statistical method that yields values that can be tested to determine whether a significant relation exists between variables
