Residual sum of squaresIn statistics, the residual sum of squares (RSS), also known as the sum of squared residuals (SSR) or the sum of squared estimate of errors (SSE), is the sum of the squares of residuals (deviations predicted from actual empirical values of data). It is a measure of the discrepancy between the data and an estimation model, such as a linear regression. A small RSS indicates a tight fit of the model to the data. It is used as an optimality criterion in parameter selection and model selection.
Erreur quadratique moyenneEn statistiques, l’erreur quadratique moyenne d’un estimateur d’un paramètre de dimension 1 (mean squared error (), en anglais) est une mesure caractérisant la « précision » de cet estimateur. Elle est plus souvent appelée « erreur quadratique » (« moyenne » étant sous-entendu) ; elle est parfois appelée aussi « risque quadratique ».
Lack-of-fit sum of squaresIn statistics, a sum of squares due to lack of fit, or more tersely a lack-of-fit sum of squares, is one of the components of a partition of the sum of squares of residuals in an analysis of variance, used in the numerator in an F-test of the null hypothesis that says that a proposed model fits well. The other component is the pure-error sum of squares. The pure-error sum of squares is the sum of squared deviations of each value of the dependent variable from the average value over all observations sharing its independent variable value(s).
Partition of sums of squaresThe partition of sums of squares is a concept that permeates much of inferential statistics and descriptive statistics. More properly, it is the partitioning of sums of squared deviations or errors. Mathematically, the sum of squared deviations is an unscaled, or unadjusted measure of dispersion (also called variability). When scaled for the number of degrees of freedom, it estimates the variance, or spread of the observations about their mean value.
Explained sum of squaresIn statistics, the explained sum of squares (ESS), alternatively known as the model sum of squares or sum of squares due to regression (SSR – not to be confused with the residual sum of squares (RSS) or sum of squares of errors), is a quantity used in describing how well a model, often a regression model, represents the data being modelled.
Résidu (statistiques)In statistics and optimization, errors and residuals are two closely related and easily confused measures of the deviation of an observed value of an element of a statistical sample from its "true value" (not necessarily observable). The error of an observation is the deviation of the observed value from the true value of a quantity of interest (for example, a population mean). The residual is the difference between the observed value and the estimated value of the quantity of interest (for example, a sample mean).
Squared deviations from the meanSquared deviations from the mean (SDM) result from squaring deviations. In probability theory and statistics, the definition of variance is either the expected value of the SDM (when considering a theoretical distribution) or its average value (for actual experimental data). Computations for analysis of variance involve the partitioning of a sum of SDM. An understanding of the computations involved is greatly enhanced by a study of the statistical value where is the expected value operator.
Mean squared prediction errorIn statistics the mean squared prediction error (MSPE), also known as mean squared error of the predictions, of a smoothing, curve fitting, or regression procedure is the expected value of the squared prediction errors (PE), the square difference between the fitted values implied by the predictive function and the values of the (unobservable) true value g. It is an inverse measure of the explanatory power of and can be used in the process of cross-validation of an estimated model.
Méthode des moindres carrésLa méthode des moindres carrés, indépendamment élaborée par Legendre et Gauss au début du , permet de comparer des données expérimentales, généralement entachées d’erreurs de mesure, à un modèle mathématique censé décrire ces données. Ce modèle peut prendre diverses formes. Il peut s’agir de lois de conservation que les quantités mesurées doivent respecter. La méthode des moindres carrés permet alors de minimiser l’impact des erreurs expérimentales en « ajoutant de l’information » dans le processus de mesure.
Mean absolute errorIn statistics, mean absolute error (MAE) is a measure of errors between paired observations expressing the same phenomenon. Examples of Y versus X include comparisons of predicted versus observed, subsequent time versus initial time, and one technique of measurement versus an alternative technique of measurement. MAE is calculated as the sum of absolute errors divided by the sample size: It is thus an arithmetic average of the absolute errors , where is the prediction and the true value.
Paramètres SLes paramètres S (de l'anglais Scattering parameters), coefficients de diffraction ou de répartition sont utilisés en hyperfréquences, en électricité ou en électronique pour décrire le comportement électrique de réseaux électriques linéaires en fonction des signaux d'entrée. Ces paramètres font partie d'une famille de formalismes similaires, utilisés en électronique, en physique ou en optique : les paramètres Y, les paramètres Z, les paramètres H, les paramètres T ou les paramètres ABCD.
Impedance parametersImpedance parameters or Z-parameters (the elements of an impedance matrix or Z-matrix) are properties used in electrical engineering, electronic engineering, and communication systems engineering to describe the electrical behavior of linear electrical networks. They are also used to describe the small-signal (linearized) response of non-linear networks. They are members of a family of similar parameters used in electronic engineering, other examples being: S-parameters, Y-parameters, H-parameters, T-parameters or ABCD-parameters.
Admittance parametersAdmittance parameters or Y-parameters (the elements of an admittance matrix or Y-matrix) are properties used in many areas of electrical engineering, such as power, electronics, and telecommunications. These parameters are used to describe the electrical behavior of linear electrical networks. They are also used to describe the small-signal (linearized) response of non-linear networks. Y parameters are also known as short circuited admittance parameters.
Grade universitaireUn grade universitaire est un degré dans la hiérarchie des études supérieures. Il est attesté par un diplôme délivré par les universités et autres institutions d’études supérieures. Les grades sont conférés aux titulaires de diplômes de l'enseignement supérieur délivrés par les universités et les établissements habilités. Les grades peuvent être également conférés aux titulaires de certains diplômes propres à des établissements. À ces grades peuvent être associés un certain nombre de droits et de privilèges, pouvant varier suivant les disciplines et les finalités.
Associate degreeL'Associate Degree, Associate's Degree (traduit comme « Diplôme d'associé »), Associate diploma ou Grade d'associé au Canada est un diplôme américain, canadien, australien ou néerlandais attribué aux étudiants qui ont validé avec succès un cursus d'études supérieures d'une durée de deux ans. Il est accordé par certains colleges ou collèges communautaires (community colleges) et par certaines universités.
Bachelor's degreeA bachelor's degree (from Middle Latin baccalaureus) or baccalaureate (from Modern Latin baccalaureatus) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded by colleges and universities upon completion of a course of study lasting three to six years (depending on institution and academic discipline). The two most common bachelor's degrees are the Bachelor of Arts (BA) and the Bachelor of Science (BS or BSc).
Double degreeA double degree program, sometimes called a dual degree, combined degree, conjoint degree, joint degree or double graduation program, involves a student working for two university degrees —either at the same institution or at different institutions, sometimes in different countries. The two degrees might be in the same subject area, or in two different subjects. Undergraduate Brunei – Sultan Sharif Ali Islamic University Provide a double degree for Bachelor of Laws (LL.
Master's degreeA master's degree (from Latin magister) is a postgraduate academic degree awarded by universities or colleges upon completion of a course of study demonstrating mastery or a high-order overview of a specific field of study or area of professional practice. A master's degree normally requires previous study at the bachelor's level, either as a separate degree or as part of an integrated course.
Honours degreeUn Honours Degree (traduit par baccalauréat spécialisé au Canada, abrégé Hons ou BA (Hons), Honors aux États-Unis) est un titre académique de recherche, attribué dans la majorité des pays anglo-saxons, principalement aux États-Unis, Royaume-Uni, Australie, Nouvelle-Zélande, Canada, et en Afrique du Sud. Ce titre est aussi attribué dans les pays non anglo-saxons comme les Pays-Bas ou Hong Kong qui ont adopté une tradition académique d'excellence sur le modèle anglo-saxon dans une stratégie d'internationalisation.
Professional degreeA professional degree, formerly known in the US as a first professional degree, is a degree that prepares someone to work in a particular profession, practice, or industry sector often meeting the academic requirements for licensure or accreditation. Professional degrees may be either graduate or undergraduate entry, depending on the profession concerned and the country, and may be classified as bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degrees.
