Linear regression with emphasis on the use as a calibration/interpolation tool. 

Figure 4.30. Back-calculated results for file VALID2.dat. The data from the left half of Fig. 4.29 are superimposed to show that the day-to-day variability most heavily influences the results at the lower concentrations. The lin/lin format is perceived to be best suited to the upper half of the concentration range, and nearly useless below 5 ng/ml. The log/log format is fairly safe to use over a wide concentration range, but a very obvious trend suggests the possibility of improvements (a) nonlinear regression, and (b) elimination of the lowest concentrations. Option (b) was tried, but to no avail While the curvature disappeared, the reduction in n, logf.t) range, and Sxx made for a larger Pres and. thus, larger interpolation errors.

The third item in the menu bar is (Options), which lists the program-specific selections, here (Font), (Scale), (Specification Limits), (Select p), (LOD), (Residuals), (Interpolate Y = /(x)), (Interpolate X = j y)), (Clear Interpolation), respectively (Weighted Regression). 

Determine the limit of detection LOD and limit of quantitation LOQ according to the interpolation at level y = a + CL of the regression line and its lower CL this is sensitive to the calibration-point pattern ...

A the regression line with the 95% CL B residuals expanded by a factor of 10 C LOD and LOQ window D option for entering specific numerical values for y and k, and for sending the interpolation results to the printer E numerical results of the specified interpolation F other results.

Purpose Perform a linear regression analysis over the selected data points display and print results, do interpolations, determine limits of detection. 

Values calculated based on original and interpolated Abraham descriptors. Values in brackets are calculated based on Abraham parameters regressed from COSMO a-moments [65].

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... 

All the regression methods are for interpolation, not extrapolation. That is, they are valid only in the range that we have data, the experimental region. Not beyond.

There are a number of ways to model calibration data by regression. Host researchers have attempted to describe data with a linear function. Others ( 4,5 ) have chosen a higher order or a polynomial method. One report ( 6 ) compared the error in the interpolation using linear segments over a curved region verses using a curvilinear regression. Still others ( 7,8 ) chose empirical or spline functions. Mixed model descriptions have also been used ( 4,7 ). 

Table 3.8 lists values of ajj and reference cation for silicates and aluminates. The tabulated parameters, as simple interpolation factors, have good correlation coefficients, confirming the quality of the regression.
