a.

Explanation of Solution

Relationship between X and Y being linear

  • Without knowing more details about the training data, it is difficult to know which training RSS is lower between linear or cubic...

b.

Explanation of Solution

Relationship between X and Y being linear

  • In this case the test RSS depends upon the test data, so we have not enough information to conclude...

c.

Explanation of Solution

Relationship between X and Y being non-linear

  • Polynomial regression has lower train RSS than the linear fit because of higher flexibility...

d.

Explanation of Solution

Relationship between X and Y being non-linear

  • There is not enough information to tell which test RSS would be lower for either regression given the problem statement is defined as not knowing “how far it is from linear”...

We create a simple regression model and call the fit function as follows: Im=LinearRegression() Im.fit(X,Y) in a multilinear model we proceed in the same way: mlm=LinearRegression() mlm.fit(Z,Y) How does the linear regression model knows if we are doing a simple or multiple linear regression? Answer:
"When conducting a binary regression with a skewed predictor, it is often easiest to assess the need for x and log(x) by including them both in the model so that their relative contributions can be assessed directly." Show that indeed the log odds are a function of x and log(x) for the gamma distribution.
Now suppose that you have two versions of your model with different parameters(e.g., different regularization) or even different model families (e.g., logistic regression versus random forest). Which one is better?
