What is Regression?

Regression, in relation to data analysis and statistics, is a process for analyzing the relationship between dependent and independent variables. Regression analysis models are used to predict the impact on the dependent variable of various changes in the independent variables. Types of regression include simple regression, multiple regression, linear regression, multivariate regression, polynomial regression and logistic regression.
