Evaluating predictive capabilities in Industry 4.0 framework using Regression Models

This paper considers the asymptotic behavior of M-estimates in a dynamic linear regression model where the errors have infinite second moments but the exogenous regressors satisfy the standard assumptions. It is shown that under certain conditions, the estimates of the parameters corresponding to the exogenous regressors are asymptotically normal and converge to the true values at the standard n−½ rate.

Abstract This study investigated the presence of co-authorship from Brazil in articles published in top-tier dental journals and analyzed the influence of international collaboration, article type (original research or review), and funding on citation rates. Articles published between 2015 and 2017 in 38 selected journals from 14 dental subareas were screened in Scopus. Bibliographic information, citation counts, and funding details were recorded for all articles (N=15619). Collaboration with other top-10 publishing countries in dentistry was registered. Annual citations averages (ACA) were calculated. A linear regression model assessed differences in ACA between subareas. Multilevel linear regression models evaluated the influence of article type, funding, and presence of international collaboration in ACA. Brazil was a frequent co-author of articles published in the period (top 3: USA=25.5%; Brazil=13.8%; Germany=9.2%) and the country with most publications in two subareas. The subjects with the biggest share of Brazil are Operative Dentistry/Cariology, Dental Materials, and Endodontics. Brazil was second in total citations, but fifth in citation averages per article. From the total of 2155 articles co-authored by Brazil, 74.8% had no co-authorship from other top-10 publishing countries. USA (17.8%), Italy (4.2%), and UK (3.2%) were the main co-author countries, but the main collaboration country varied between subjects. Implantology and Dental Materials were the subjects with most international co-authorship. Review articles and articles with international collaboration were associated with increased citation rates, whereas the presence of study funding did not influence the citations.

Abstract. Chambers are widely used to measure surface fluxes of nitrous oxide (N2O). Usually linear regression is used to calculate the fluxes from the chamber data. Non-linearity in the chamber data can result in an underestimation of the flux. Non-linear regression models are available for these data, but are not commonly used. In this study we compared the fit of linear and non-linear regression models to determine significant non-linearity in the chamber data. We assessed the influence of this significant non-linearity on the annual fluxes. For a two year dataset from an automatic chamber we calculated the fluxes with linear and non-linear regression methods. Based on the fit of the methods 32% of the data was defined significant non-linear. Significant non-linearity was not recognized by the goodness of fit of the linear regression alone. Using non-linear regression for these data and linear regression for the rest, increases the annual flux with 21% to 53% compared to the flux determined from linear regression alone. We suggest that differences this large are due to leakage through the soil. Macropores or a coarse textured soil can add to fast leakage from the chamber. Yet, also for chambers without leakage non-linearity in the chamber data is unavoidable, due to feedback from the increasing concentration in the chamber. To prevent a possibly small, but systematic underestimation of the flux, we recommend comparing the fit of a linear regression model with a non-linear regression model. The non-linear regression model should be used if the fit is significantly better. Open questions are how macropores affect chamber measurements and how optimization of chamber design can prevent this.

ABSTRACT Background Human and microbial metabolism are distinct disciplines. Terminology, metrics, and methodologies have been developed separately. Therefore, combining the 2 fields to study energetic processes simultaneously is difficult. Objectives When developing a mechanistic framework describing gut microbiome and human metabolism interactions, energy values of food and digestive materials that use consistent and compatible metrics are required. As an initial step toward this goal, we developed and validated a model to convert between chemical oxygen demand (COD) and gross energy (${E_g}$) for >100 food items and ingredients. Methods We developed linear regression models to relate (and be able to convert between) theoretical gross energy (${E_g}^{\prime}$) and chemical oxygen demand (COD′); the latter is a measure of electron equivalents in the food's carbon. We developed an overall regression model for the food items as a whole and separate regression models for the carbohydrate, protein, and fat components. The models were validated using a sample set of computed ${E_g}^{\prime}$ and COD′ values, an experimental sample set using measured ${E_g}$ and COD values, and robust statistical methods. Results The overall linear regression model and the carbohydrate, protein, and fat regression models accurately converted between COD and ${E_g}$, and the component models had smaller error. Because the ratios of COD per gram dry weight were greatest for fats and smallest for carbohydrates, foods with a high fat content also had higher ${E_g}$ values in terms of kcal · g dry weight−1. Conclusion Our models make it possible to analyze human and microbial energetic processes in concert using a single unit of measure, which fills an important need in the food–nutrition–metabolism–microbiome field. In addition, measuring COD and using the regressions to calculate ${E_g}$ can be used instead of measuring ${E_g}$ directly using bomb calorimetry, which saves time and money.

Abstract. Vegetation mapping requires information about trees and underlying vegetation to ensure proper management of the urban and forest environments. This information can be obtained using remote sensors. For instance, lightweight systems composed of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as a platform, low-cost laser units and the recent miniaturized navigation sensors (positioning and orientation) have become a very feasible and flexible alternative. Low-cost UAV-ALS systems usually provide centimetric accuracy in altimetry, according to flight data configuration and quality of observations. This paper presents a feasibility study of a lightweight ALS system on-board a UAV to estimate the diameters at breast height (DBH) of urban trees using LiDAR data and linear regression model. A mathematical model correlating the crown diameter and height of the tree to estimate the DBH was developed based on a linear regression with stepwise method. The stepwise linear regression method enables the addition and the removal of predictor variables through statistical tests. The tree samples were separated in two classes (A and B), according to the diametric distribution. These sample classes were used to define two linear regression models. The regression models that best fit the samples achieved an R2 adj value above 94% for class A and B, which demonstrates the closeness between the samples and the developed mathematical models. The quality control of the proposed regression models was performed comparing the DBH values estimated and directly measured (reference). DBH of the trees were estimated with an average discrepancy of 8.7&thinsp;cm.

Quantitative Response

This chapter evaluates regression models, focusing on the normal linear regression model. The normal linear regression model establishes a relationship between a quantitative response (also called outcome or dependent) variable, assumed to be normally distributed, and one or more explanatory (also called regression, predictor, or independent) variables about which no distributional assumptions are made. The model is usually referred to as 'the general linear model'. The chapter then differentiates between simple linear regression and multiple regression. The term 'simple linear regression' covers the regression model where there is one response variable and one explanatory variable, assuming a linear relationship between the two. The chapter also discusses the model formulae in R; generalized linear models; collinearity and aliasing; and logarithmic transformations.

The present study research article proposes a modified test for misspecification of the stochastic linear regression model and a new test for predictive accuracy of stochastic linear regression model. In addition to this modified Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test for misspecification of stochastic linear regression has been developed. In the derivation of the test statistics internally studentized residuals have been used. William A. Branch et.al [1] presented a stochastic non-linear self-referential model in which expectations are based on linear perceptions. I.sh. Torgovitski et.al [2] in this paper discussed the problem of raising the efficiency of the regression coefficients estimation as suggested an approach which allows as to reduce mathematical expectations of the square of deviation of the response prediction.

AbstractPrediction based on a single linear regression model is one of the most common way in various field of studies. It enables us to understand the structure of data, but might not be suitable to express the data whose structure is complex. To express the structure of data more accurately, we make assumption that the data can be divided in clusters, and has a linear regression model in each cluster. In this case, we can assume that each explanatory variable has their own role; explaining the assignment to the clusters, explaining the regression to the target variable, or being both of them. Introducing probabilistic structure to the data generating process, we derive the optimal prediction under Bayes criterion and the algorithm which calculates it sub-optimally with variational inference method. One of the advantages of our algorithm is that it automatically weights the probabilities of being each number of clusters in the process of the algorithm, therefore it solves the concern about selection of the number of clusters. Some experiments are performed on both synthetic and real data to demonstrate the above advantages and to discover some behaviors and tendencies of the algorithm.
