Standard Practice for Regression Analysis with a Single Predictor Variable
1.1 This practice covers regression analysis of a set of data to define the statistical relationship between two numerical variables for use in predicting one variable from the other.
1.2 The regression analysis provides graphical and calculational procedures for selecting the best statistical model that describes the relationship and for evaluation of the fit of the data to the selected model.
1.3 The resulting regression model can be useful for developing process knowledge through description of the variable relationship, in making predictions of future values, in relating the precision of a test method to the value of the characteristic being measured, and in developing control methods for the process generating values of the variables.
1.4 The system of units for this practice is not specified. Dimensional quantities in the practice are presented only as illustrations of calculation methods. The examples are not binding on products or test methods treated.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
