The aim of regression models is to model the variation of a quantitative response variable
y
in terms of the variation of one or several explanatory variables (
x
1
,…,
x
p
)
⊤
. We have already introduced such models in Chapters
3
and
7
where linear models were written in (
3.50
) as
$$y={\mathcal{X}} \beta + \varepsilon,$$
where
y
(
n
×1) is the vector of observation for the response variable,
${\mathcal{X}} (n\times p)$
is the data matrix of the
p
explanatory variables and
ε
are the errors. Linear models are not restricted to handle only linear relationships between
y
and
x
. Curvature is allowed by including appropriate higher order terms in the
design
matrix
${\mathcal{X}}$
.
