I am in immediate assistance of convincing DOD people that a low R- squared is not necessarily saying that, the computed CER using the Linear Least Squares Method is not a good predictor of the data set. If anyone knows of papers, studies, theories, or any agencies that have documentation of using

I need some immediate help in convincing DOD people that a low R-squared is not neccessarily saying, that a CER computed using the Linear Least Squares Method is a bad predictor for the data set. Is there any references, papers, studies, theories or any agencies that have used a CER with a low r-

When r^2 is referred to as the "coefficient of variation," 1-r^2 is referred to as the "coefficient of nondetermination." What is, I believe, a much older term for the latter is "coefficient of alienation." (I am not defending the terms, only reporting them.) Jerrold H. Zar, Professor Depar

I suspect most readers (including myself) would prefer the more simple and clear terms "explained variance" and "unexplained variance." I suggest leaving the term alienation to Karl Marx's Political-Economy. Burke Johnson

1999-12-08 Thread Gaurang Mehta
I am looking for the coefficient name for (1-r^2). I know r^2 is the Coefficient of Determination, but I do not know the name of the (1-r^2) coefficient. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance GM
