Explain why we cannot estimate a linear-log or log-log version of the regression (i.e. where the independent variables are logged).
We cannot estimate a linear-log or log-log version of the regression (i.e. where the independent variables are logged) because in the above regression equation, we have used three indicator variables percfemale , percmomsec and percdadsec

linear regression 1.1 Localized Suppose we want to estimate localized linear regression by weighting the contribution of the data points by their distance to the query pointr,i.e. using the cost i=1 where (r)-2(is the inverse Euclidean distance between the training point and query (test) point Derive the modified normal equations for the above cost function E(r(a)). (Hint: first, rewrite the cost function in matrix/vector notation, using a diagonal matrix to represent the weights w).
Only question 6 please, this is the model referred to in Question 6 from 5.c c) Estimate the linear model for a state's unemployment rate shown below (i.e. estimate Bo and β1) using OLS. Write the resulting regression equation. unemployment rate-β0 + β|minimum wage + ε 6. The following questions ask you to use the regression model you estimated to predict unemployment rates (ie, the model in 5.c). Use the unemployment and minimum wage data from the table above to...
Where appropriate, linear regression with one explanatory variable can be performed through the origin', that is, with the intercept α fixed equal to zero. The log-likelihood in this reduced model is So(B) 1(8, o)-constant-n log ơ--2 where 7 (by setting α = 0 in Equations (11.5) and (11.6) in subsection 2.1 of Unit 11). Solve the equation dS。(β)/dd = 0 to provide the candidate value fy for the value of β that minimises So(1) (it can be confirmed that β...
please show all steps thank you 4. (10 marks) Let βο and βι be the intercept and slope from the regression of y on xi, using n observations Let c1 and c2, with c#0, be constants. Let ß0 and ßl be the intercept and slope from the regression ofciyi on c2xi. Show that ßi-(c1/c2) B\ and Bo -cißo, thereby verifying the claims on units of measurement in Section 2-4. [Hint: Plug the scaled versions of x and y into A-s....
Explain why two perfectly multicollinear regressors cannot be included in a linear multiple regression. If those same two regressors were not perfectly collinear but highly collinear what difference, or differences, would that make?
Table 1: How to interpret logged models, table adapted from Bailey's textbook model equation Log-linear In Y; = Bo + BiX; + ei Linear-log Y; = Bo + B, In Xi + ei interpretation A one-unit increase in X is associated with a B1 percent change in Y (on a 0-1 scale). A one percent increase in X is associated with a B1/100 change in Y. A one-percent increase in X is associated with a B1 percent change in Y...
We run the following linear regression model in Excel (or any other softwares) Yi = β0 + β1Xi + β2Wi + εi , where i = 1, 2, . . . , 100. The results suggest that the slope on Xi is 97.28 with t-statistics 0.91, and the slope on Wi is 15.81 with t-statistics 11.39. What does it tell us?
Q1 a) Explain what it means that the ordinary least squares regression estimator is a linear estimator, paying specific attention to how it implies independent variables interact with each other. b) Give two examples of models where the parameters of interest cannot be directly estimated using OLS regression because of nonlinear relationships between them. c) What is the minimum set of conditions necessary for the OLS estimator to be the most efficient unbiased estimator (BLUE) of a parameter? List each...
