<p>
Regression modeling deals with the description of the sampling distribution of a given random variable \( y \) varies as function of another variable or a set of such variables \( \hat{x} =[x_0, x_1,\dots, x_p] \).
The first variable is called the <b>dependent</b>, the <b>outcome</b> or the <b>response</b> variable while the set of variables \( \hat{x} \) is called the independent variable, or the predictor variable or the explanatory variable.
<p>
A regression model aims at finding a likelihood function \( p(y\vert \hat{x}) \), that is the conditional distribution for \( y \) with a given \( \hat{x} \). The estimation of \( p(y\vert \hat{x}) \) is made using a data set with
<ul>
<li> \( n \) cases \( i = 0, 1, 2, \dots, n-1 \)</li>
<li> Response (dependent or outcome) variable \( y_i \) with \( i = 0, 1, 2, \dots, n-1 \)</li>
<li> \( p \) Explanatory (independent or predictor) variables \( \hat{x}_i=[x_{i0}, x_{i1}, \dots, x_{ip}] \) with \( i = 0, 1, 2, \dots, n-1 \)</li>
</ul>
The goal of the regression analysis is to extract/exploit relationship between \( y_i \) and \( \hat{x}_i \) in or to infer causal dependencies, approximations to the likelihood functions, functional relationships and to make predictions .
