  1. Introduction to Predictive Modeling with Examples Nationwide Insurance Company, November 2 D. A. Dickey

  3. If the Life Line is long and deep,then this represents a long life full of vitality and health. A short line, if strong and deep, also shows great vitality in your life and the ability to overcome health problems. However, if the line is short and shallow, then your life may have the tendency to be controlled by others http://www.ofesite.com/spirit/palm/lines/linelife.htm

  4. Wilson & Mather JAMA 229 (1974) X=life line length Y=age at death proc sgplot; scatter Y=age X=line; reg Y=age X=line; run ; Result: Predicted Age at Death = 79.24 – 1.367(lifeline) (Is this “real”??? Is this repeatable???)

  5. We Use LEAST SQUARES Squared residuals sum to 9609

  6. Error sum of squares SSq versus slope and intercept (truncated at SSq=9700)

  7. “Best” line is the one that minimizes sum of squared residuals. Best for this sample – is it the true relationship for everyone? SAS PROC REG will compute it. What other lines might be the true line for everyone?? Probably not the purple one. Red one has slope 0 (no effect). Is red line unreasonable? Can we reject H0:slope is 0?

  8. Simulation: Age at Death = 67 + 0(life line) + e Error e has normal distribution mean 0 variance 200. Simulate 20 cases with n= 50 bodies each. NOTE: Regression equations : Age(rep:1) = 80.56253 - 1.345896*line. Age(rep:2) = 61.76292 + 0.745289*line. Age(rep:3) = 72.14366 - 0.546996*line. Age(rep:4) = 95.85143 - 3.087247*line. Age(rep:5) = 67.21784 - 0.144763*line. Age(rep:6) = 71.0178 - 0.332015*line. Age(rep:7) = 54.9211 + 1.541255*line. Age(rep:8) = 69.98573 - 0.472335*line. Age(rep:9) = 85.73131 - 1.240894*line. Age(rep:10) = 59.65101 + 0.548992*line. Age(rep:11) = 59.38712 + 0.995162*line. Age(rep:12) = 72.45697 - 0.649575*line. Age(rep:13) = 78.99126 - 0.866334*line. Age(rep:14) = 45.88373 + 2.283475*line. Age(rep:15) = 59.28049 + 0.790884*line. Age(rep:16) = 73.6395 - 0.814287*line. Age(rep:17) = 70.57868 - 0.799404*line. Age(rep:18) = 72.91134 - 0.821219*line. Age(rep:19) = 55.46755 + 1.238873*line. Age(rep:20) = 63.82712 + 0.776548*line. Predicted Age at Death = 79.24 – 1.367(lifeline) Would NOT be unusual if there is no true relationship .

  9. Distribution of t Under H0 Conclusion: Estimated slopes vary Standard deviation of estimated slopes = “Standard error” (estimated) Compute t = (estimate – hypothesized)/standard error p-value is probability of larger |t| when hypothesis is correct (e.g. 0 slope) p-value is sum of two tail areas. Traditionally p<0.05  hypothesized value is wrong. p>0.05 is inconclusive.

  11. Conclusion: insufficient evidence against the hypothesis of no linear relationship. H0: H1: H0: Innocence H1: Guilt Beyond reasonable doubt P<0.05 H0: True slope is 0 (no association) H1: True slope is not 0 P=0.3965

  12. Simulation: Age at Death = 67 + 0(life line) + e Error e has normal distribution mean 0 variance 200.  WHY? Simulate 20 cases with n= 50 bodies each. Want estimate of variability around the true line. True variance is Use sums of squared residuals (SS). Sum of squared residuals from the mean is “SS(total)” 9755 Sum of squared residuals around the line is “SS(error)” 9609 (1) SS(total)-SS(error) is SS(model) = 146 (2) Variance estimate is SS(error)/(degrees of freedom) = 200 (3) SS(model)/SS(total) is R2, i.e. proportion of variablity “explained” by the model.

  13. Part 2: Multiple Regression Issues: (1) Testing joint importance versus individual significance (2) Prediction versus modeling individual effects (3) Collinearity (correlation among inputs) Example: Hypothetical company’s sales Y depend on TV advertising X1 and Radio Advertising X2. Y = b0 + b1X1 + b2X2 +e Two engine plane can still fly if engine #1 fails Two engine plane can still fly if engine #2 fails Neither is critical individually Jointly critical (can’t omit both!!)

TVapproximatelyequal to radioso, approximately Estimated Sales = 531 + 9.7 TV or Estimated Sales = 531 + 9.7 radio

  19. Setting TV = radio (approximaterelationship) Estimated Sales = 531 + 9.7 TV isthis the BEST TV line? Estimated Sales = 531 + 9.7 radio isthis the BEST radio line? Proc Reg Data=Stores; Model Sales = TV; Model Sales = radio; run;

  22. Summary: Good predictions given by Sales = 531 + 5.0 x TV + 4.7 x Radio or Sales = 479 + 9.7 x TV or Sales = 612 + 9.6 x Radio or (lots of others) Why the confusion? The evil Multicollinearity!! (correlated X’s)

  23. Those Mysterious “Degrees of Freedom” (DF) First Martian  information about average height 0 information about variation. 2nd Martian gives first piece of information (DF) about error variance around mean. n Martians n-1 DF for error (variation)

  24. Martian Height 2 points  no information on variation of errors n points  n-2 error DF Martian Weight

(regress Y on X1, X2) error X2 X1 Three legs will all touch the floor. Fourth leg gives first chance to measure error (first error DF). Fit a plane  n-3 (37) error DF (2 “model” DF, n-1=39 “total” DF) Regress Y on X1 X2 … X7  n-8 error DF (7 “model” DF, n-1 “total” DF)

  27. Contrast: TV advertising looses significance when radio is added. IQ gains significance when study time is added. Model for Grades: Predicted Grade = 0.74 + 0.47 x IQ + 2.10 x Study Time Question: Does an extra hour of study really deliver 2.10 points for everyone regardless of IQ? Current model only allows this.

  29. Slope = 2.36 Slope = 1.30 Adding interaction makes everything insignificant (individually) ! Do we need to omit insignificant terms until only significant ones remain? Has an acquitted defendant proved his innocence? Common sense trumps statistics!

  30. Part 3: Diagnosing Problems in Regression Main problems are Multicollinearity (correlation among inputs) Outliers Principal Component Axis 1: P1 Proc Corr; Var TV radio sales; Pearson Correlation Coefficients, N = 40 Prob > |r| under H0: Rho=0 TV radio sales TV 1.00000 0.99737 0.97457 <.0001 <.0001 radio 0.99737 1.00000 0.97450 <.0001 <.0001 sales 0.97457 0.97450 1.00000 <.0001 <.0001 Principal Component Axis 2 P2 TV $ Radio $

Rule of thumb: Ratio 1 is perfect, >30 problematic. Spread on long axis is 27.6 times that on short axis. Variance Inflation Factor (1) Regress predictor i on all the others getting r-square: Ri2 (2) VIF is 1/(1- Ri2 ) for variable i (measures collinearity). (3) VIF > 10 is a problem.

  36. Part 4: Classification Variables (dummy variables, indicator variables) Predicted Accidents = 1181 + 2579 X11 X11 is 1 in November, 0 elsewhere. Interpretation: In November, predict 1181+2579(1) = 3660. In any other month predict 1181 + 2579(0) = 1181. 1181 is average of other months. 2579 is added November effect (vs. average of others) Model for NC Crashes involving Deer: Proc reg data=deer; model deer = X11; Analysis of Variance Sum of Mean Source DF Squares Square F Value Pr > F Model 1 30473250 30473250 90.45 <.0001 Error 58 19539666 336891 Corrected Total 59 50012916 Root MSE 580.42294 R-Square 0.6093 Parameter Standard Variable Label DF Estimate Error t Value Pr > |t| Intercept Intercept 1 1181.09091 78.26421 15.09 <.0001 X11 1 2578.50909 271.11519 9.51 <.0001
