The Acceptability of Regression Solutions: Another Look at Computational Accuracy
回归解的可接受性:重新审视计算精度
Longley [10] proposed a set of data for use in testing regression programs. This paper shows that the numerically accurate solution in this example was probably an unreasonable estimate of the regression coefficients. This is true because the accuracy of the data and appropriateness of the model may affect the solution more than the computational method. An easily computed index is derived that can be used to indicate such computational instability. The basic conclusion is…
