NagValueError

Notes

In the NAG Library the traditional C interface for this routine uses a different algorithmic base. Please contact NAG if you have any questions about compatibility.

linregs_noconst fits a straight line of the form

$$y=bx$$

to the data points

$$(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),\dots ,(x_n,y_n)\text{,}$$

such that

$$y_i=b{x}_i+e_i\text{,}i=1,2,\dots ,n(n\ge 2)\text{.}$$

The function calculates the regression coefficient, $b$, and the various other statistical quantities by minimizing

$$\sum _{i=1}^n{e}_i^2\text{.}$$

The input data consists of the $n$ pairs of observations $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),\dots ,(x_n,y_n)$ on the independent variable $x$ and the dependent variable $y$.

The quantities calculated are:

1. Means:

   $$\overline{x}=\frac{1}{n}\sum _{i=1}^n{x}_i\text{;}\overline{y}=\frac{1}{n}\sum _{i=1}^n{y}_i\text{.}$$

2. Standard deviations:

   $$s_x=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum _{i=1}^n{(x_i-\overline{x})}^2}\text{;}{s}_y=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum _{i=1}^n{(y_i-\overline{y})}^2}\text{.}$$

3. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient:

   $$r=\frac{{\sum }_{i=1}^n(x_i-\overline{x})(y_i-\overline{y})}{\sqrt{{\sum }_{i=1}^n{(x_i-\overline{x})}^2{\sum }_{i=1}^n{(y_i-\overline{y})}^2}}\text{.}$$

4. The regression coefficient, $b$:

   $$b=\frac{{\sum }_{i=1}^n{x}_i{y}_i}{{\sum }_{i=1}^n{x}_i^2}\text{.}$$

5. The sum of squares attributable to the regression, $SSR$, the sum of squares of deviations about the regression, $SSD$, and the total sum of squares, $SST$:

   $$SST=\sum _{i=1}^n{y}_i^2\text{;}SSD=\sum _{i=1}^n{(y_i-b{x}_i)}^2\text{,}SSR=SST-SSD\text{.}$$

6. The degrees of freedom attributable to the regression, $DFR$, the degrees of freedom of deviations about the regression, $DFD$, and the total degrees of freedom, $DFT$:

   $$DFT=n\text{;}DFD=n-1\text{,}DFR=1\text{.}$$

7. The mean square attributable to the regression, $MSR$, and the mean square of deviations about the regression, $MSD\text{.}$

   $$MSR=SSR/DFR\text{;}MSD=SSD/DFD\text{.}$$

8. The $F$ value for the analysis of variance:

   $$F=MSR/MSD\text{.}$$

9. The standard error of the regression coefficient:

   $$se\left(b\right)=\sqrt{\frac{MSD}{{\sum }_{i=1}^n{x}_i^2}}\text{.}$$

10. The $t$ value for the regression coefficient:

    $$t\left(b\right)=\frac{b}{se\left(b\right)}\text{.}$$
