Linear regression

Machine learning is the subfield of artificial intelligence that deals with training an agent to perform a task or a set of tasks, without the need to be explicitly programmed. The learning process is made possible as the agent uses previously observed data to make decisions, while at the same time, it receives feedback for its actions and as a result, it is able to improve its performance on future tasks. Different subcategories of machine learning algorithms are defined according to the way…

the creativity and memory performance front, Hierarchical Linear model (HLM) was created to determine the relation between liberal response bias and CAQ and ATTA respectively for both negative and positive words. The table shows, that the beta value for negative words for both CAQ ( = -0.092) and ATTA (= -0.037) is lower than the beta value for positive words for CAQ (= -0.055) and ATTA (= 0.013). The negative value of the regression coefficient supports the hypothesis that creative…

Among the 38 patients who underwent cranial vault remodeling, we applied multivariable logistic regression to identify independent predictors of substantial intraoperative blood loss (i.e., > 60 mL/kg) and the need for coagulation products with the c-index used to judge the quality of model prediction and the Youden J-index in receiver operating characteristic…

Prospective vs. Retrospective Approaches resulted in a similar outcome due to the studies being positivism and displaying quantitative methods. Results are as follows, Ten-year trends in overweight/obesity indicate stability among males and significant linear increases in some female subgroups (Allison et al, 2015). On the other hand, food reinforcement and parental obesity independently predict future weight gain among adolescents. Lastly, the interpretivism approach, results are achieved,…

annual survival was observed for 12-20 years. Scientists have used Cormack-Jolly-Seber-Open- population models in the program MARK to estimate apparent survival. Variance-component module program MARK to estimate variation in survival. Climate data was collected by using PRISM maps for monthly minimum and maximum temperatures and also seasonal data was collected from GIS, NCDC. Scientists have applied Palmer drought severity index to assess moisture levels during the season. To assess region…

Anand, R., & UdayaSuriyan, G. (2010). Emotional intelligence and its relationship with leadership practices. International Journal of Business and Management, 5(2), 65?76. http://doi.org/10.1108/02683940910922546. Using two instruments, the EII, and LPI, the authors (Anand & UdayaSuriyan, 2010) surveyed 300 executives selected randomly. The hypothesis examined emotional intelligence and leadership practices. With globalization, employees are expected to accept constant organizational changes.…

tends to lose some properties of the dried material which is reflected on the product quality. While, drying the highest masses in oven took the required time of drying rate and thereby, the quality was improved. 4- Mathematical models Non-linear regression was used to obtain each parameter value of every model. The results of statistical analyses undertaken on these models are given in Tables 3 and 4 at 50g for different fruit peels in oven and microwave, respectively. It was noticed in the…

clinic. Chi-square tests and ANOVA tests used to analyze pretreatment data showed no difference in participants. A repeated measure multivariate analysis of variance revealed significant improvement in symptoms in the post-test. Furthermore, multiple regression analyses revealed that higher levels of anxiety in pretreatment predicted greater reduction in symptoms later. Reducing maladaptive coping strategies decreased anxiety only when there was a reduction of self-consciousness; depression was…

Development of the Compulsive Buying Questionnaire The Compulsive Buying Questionnaire (CBQ) is a revised combination of German Compulsive Buying Scale—Chinese Version (Li, Unger & Bi, 2014) and compulsive-buying scale (Ridgway, Kukar-Kinney & Monroe, 2008). The hypothetical components include impulsive-buying behavior (Faber and O’Guinn, 1992), obsessive-compulsive buying behavior (Hollander & Allen, 2006), and adverse consequences (Dell’Osso, Allen, Altamura, Buoli & Hollander, 2008). Item…

Red, white, and blue—the colors of freedom! Red, white, and blue—the colors of oppression! Red, white, and blue colors waving in the air—woven into an ultimate symbol embodying the nation’s ideology—the flag. Currently suffering from the results of a controversial election year, disillusioned nationwide protesters have increasingly partaken in burning the flag as a symbolic denouncement of government. The growing popularity of flag burning has sparked a divisive debate between the nation’s…
