13 Non-Linear Least Squares: Solution by linearization Sept-Oct 2006 Statistics for astronomers (L. Lindegren, Lund Observatory) Lecture 5, p. 25 OLS Regression of Y versus X (or X versus Y?) Suppose the random variables x, y are expected to have a linear relationship, y = ax + b. If a 0, a mathematically equivalent formulation of the relationship is x = cy + d (where c = 1/a, d = b/a). Given a set of data pairs (x i, y i ), i = 1...n, we may determine the coefficients of the linear model by OLS regression in two different ways: 1. OLS(Y X): ax i + b ~ y i estimates a', b' 2. OLS(X Y): cy i + d ~ x i estimates c', d', a" = 1/c', b" = d'/c' The two results are usually different. In particular, a'c' = r 2 1 (r = sample corr. coeff.). If there is a large scatter among the points ( r is small), then the results are very different. So which should be used (if any)? Good discussion in: Isobe, Feigelson, Akritas & Babu, Linear Regression in Astronomy, I (ApJ 364, 104, 1990) Feigelson & Babu, Linear Regression in Astronomy, II (ApJ 397, 55, 1992). Think about: Is the regression used to predict x or y? Or to find a structural relationship? Sept-Oct 2006 Statistics for astronomers (L. Lindegren, Lund Observatory) Lecture 5, p. 26
