Data relationships linear

A linear regression was performed on the data, giving a slope of 1.08, an intercept of 1.922, and = 0.94. The fit of the data to the linear relationship is surprisingly good when one considers the wide variety of ionic liquids and the unloiown errors in the literature data. This linear behavior in the Walden Plot clearly indicates that the number of mobile charge carriers in an ionic liquid and its viscosity are strongly coupled. 

Viscosity is normally measured at two different temperatures typically 100°F (38°C) and 210°F (99°C). For many FCC feeds, the sample is too thick to flow at 100°F and the sample is heated to about 130°F. The viscosity data at two temperatures are plotted on a viscosity-temperature chart (see Appendix 1), which shows viscosity over a wide temperature range [4]. Viscosity is not a linear function of temperature and the scales on these charts are adjusted to make the relationship linear. 

Foremost among the methods for interpolating within a known data relationship is regression the fitting of a line or curve to a set of known data points on a graph, and the interpolation ( estimation ) of this line or curve in areas where we have no data points. The simplest of these regression models is that of linear regression (valid... 

Kelder et al. [25] also explored the role of PSA as a determinant for the transport of drugs through the BBB. Initially, they calculated and correlated the PSA of 45 drug molecules with their known brain-penetration data. A linear relationship was obtained between brain penetration and dynamic polar surface area (DPSA) as shown in Eq. 34 ... 

A standard assumption in QSAR studies is that the models describing the data are linear. It is from this standpoint that transformations are performed on the bioactivities to achieve linearity before construction of the models. The assumption of linearity is made for each case based on theoretical considerations or the examination of scatter plots of experimental values plotted against each predicted value where the relationship between the data points appears to be nonlinear. The transformation of the bioactivity data may be necessary if theoretical considerations specify that the relationship between the two variables... 

These literature data were adjusted to a basicity of 1.65 using data given in Figure 4. The data from this study are quite consistent with the literature data. The linearity of the sulfide capacity with inverse temperature is consistent with the theoretical relationship. 

The nature of any degradation mechanism will determine the need for transformation of the data for linear regression analysis. Usually, the relationship can be represented by a linear, quadratic, or cubic function on an arithmetic or logarithmic scale. Statistical methods should be used to test the goodness of fit of the data on all batches to the assumed degradation line or curve. 

The functions now realized by microprocessors include the control of the optical system (lamp and analytical wavelength selection), selection of the kind of data collected (e.g., absorbance, concentration), zero-adjustment, autocalibration and control of measurement parameters [21]. The microprocessor determines the equation of the regression curve and provides statistical processing of the results. It can also be programmed to measure the absorbance, the % transmittance at a selected wavelength, or the concentration based on the relationship (linear or non-linear) established between the measured absorbance and the concentration.

For the majority of plastics (within the same group) the tensile modulus of elasticity increases approximately linearly with the degree of crystallinity [5], The data for linear and branched polymers follow the same approximate relationship. It is not clear whether the same molecular principles is applicable to WPCs (Table 8.13), but their tensile modulus of elasticity vary between different brands quite significantly. 

The molecular descriptors for a CoMFA analysis number in the hundreds or thousands, even for datasets of twenty or so compounds. A multiple regression equation cannot be fitted for such a dataset. In such cases. Partial Least Squares (PLS) is the appropriate method. PLS unravels the relationship between log (1/C) and molecular properties by extracting from the data matrix linear combinations (latent variables) of molecular properties that best explain log (1/C). Because the individual properties are correlated (for example, steric properties at adjacent lattice points), more than one contributes to each latent variable. The first latent variable extracted explains most of the variance in log (1/C) the second the next greatest degree of variance, etc. At each step iP and s are calculated to help one decide when enough variables have been extracted—the maximum number of extracted variables is found when extracting another does not decrease x substantially. Cross-validation, discussed in Section 3.5.3, is commonly used to decide how many latent variables are significant. For example, Table 3.5 summarizes the CoMFA PLS analysis... 

Since the relationship between the difference in refractive index and the amonnt of incident light is not linear, the data are linearized by a microprocessor. 

The linear muscle model has the static and dynamic properties of rectus eye muscle, a model without any nonlinear elements. The model has a nonlinear force-velocity relationship that matches muscle data using linear viscous elements and the length tension characteristics are also in good agreement with muscle data within the operating range of the muscle. Some additional advantages of the linear muscle model are that a passive elasticity is not necessary if the equilibrium point Xe = —19.3°, rather than 15°, and muscle viscosity is constant that does not depend on the innervation stimulus level.
