Regression on Principal Components and PLS Regression

Statistics

Creascience
Training Provided by Creascience

This one-day workshop covers two advanced modeling methods used to handle common problems encountered in relating a variable to a set of explanatory variables, the interpretation of results, strengths and weaknesses and practical realization.

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Know the context of use for regression on principal components and partial least squares regression
  • Understand what the underlying assumptions of the techniques are
  • Construct the regression models
  • Assess the goodness-of-fit of the models to the data
  • Identify common issues in these regression models, diagnose problems and fix them
  • Interpret statistical software output
  • This is primarily ilt training
