RidgeRegression

class RidgeRegression[MatT <: MatriD, VecT <: VectoD] extends Predictor with Error

The RidgeRegression class supports multiple linear regression. In this case, 'x' is multi-dimensional [x_1, ... x_k]. Both the input matrix 'x' and the response vector 'y' are centered (zero mean). Fit the parameter vector 'b' in the regression equation

y = b dot x + e = b_1 * x_1 + ... b_k * x_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 = fac.solve (.) with regularization x.t * x + λ * I

Four factorization techniques are provided:

'QR' // QR Factorization: slower, more stable (default) 'Cholesky' // Cholesky Factorization: faster, less stable (reasonable choice) 'SVD' // Singular Value Decomposition: slowest, most robust 'Inverse' // Inverse/Gaussian Elimination, classical textbook technique

    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.
