Find the estimator for a multiple OLS regression.
Name the normal equation and the 5 implied algebraic properties of the OLS estimator.
X’y - X’Xβ = X’(y - Xβ) = X’ε = 0
Sum of OLS residuals is zero
Sample covariance between residuals and predictors is zero
Fitted values and residuals are orthogonal
Mean of fitted values is equal to the sample mean
Means of predictors evaluate to the sample mean
Name the necessary and the sufficient condition for (X’X) being invertible.
Necessary:
positive sample variance for each predictor x_k
no perfect linear relation between two predictors x_k, x_l
Sufficient:
the predictors X_1, …, X_k are not linearly dependent
What is the coefficient of determination?
How is it computed?
How can it be interpreted?
R² is a measure of goodness of fit.
Sum of squares of residuals:
SSR = ε’ε
Total sum of squares:
SST = Ns_y²
R² = 1 - SSR / SST
R² close to 1 … very good model fit (100% explained by the model)
R² close to 0 … bad model fit
Proof that SST ≥ SSR.
How can one interpret β_k?
