class Regression extends PredictorMat

The Regression class supports multiple linear regression. In this case, 'x' is multi-dimensional [1, x_1, ... x_k]. Fit the parameter vector 'b' in the regression equation

y = b dot x + e = b_0 + 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 = x_pinv * y [ alternative: b = solve (y) ]

where 'x_pinv' is the pseudo-inverse. Three techniques are provided:

'Fac_QR' // QR Factorization: slower, more stable (default) 'Fac_Cholesky' // Cholesky Factorization: faster, less stable (reasonable choice) 'Inverse' // Inverse/Gaussian Elimination, classical textbook technique (outdated)

This version uses parallel processing to speed up execution.
