class ANOVA extends Predictor with Error

The ANOVA class supports one-way ANalysis Of VAriance (ANOVA). It is framed using General Linear Model 'GLM' notation and supports the use of one binary/categorical treatment variable 't'. This is done by introducing dummy variables 'd_j' to distinguish the treatment level. The problem is again to fit the parameter vector 'b' in the following equation

y = b dot x + e = b_0 + b_1 * d_1 + b_1 * d_2 ... b_k * d_k + e

where 'e' represents the residuals (the part not explained by the model). Use Least-Squares (minimizing the residuals) to fit the parameter vector

b = x_pinv * y

where 'x_pinv' is the pseudo-inverse.

  14. def vif: VectorD

    Compute the Variance Inflation Factor 'VIF' for each variable to test for multi-collinearity by regressing 'xj' against the rest of the variables.

    Compute the Variance Inflation Factor 'VIF' for each variable to test for multi-collinearity by regressing 'xj' against the rest of the variables. A VIF over 10 indicates that over 90% of the variance of 'xj' can be predicted from the other variables, so 'xj' is a candidate for removal from the model.
