    <h2>Wiki</h2> <p><strong>Regression</strong> is a common applied statistical technique and a cornerstone of machine learning. Various algorithms and software packages can be used to fit and use regression models.</p> <p>In other words, regression is a <strong>statistical measure</strong> that attempts to determine the strength of the relationship between <strong>one dependent variable</strong> (usually denoted by Y) and a series of other changing variables (known as <strong>independent variables</strong>). Typically the dependent variables are modeled with probability distributions whose parameters are assumed to vary (deterministically) with the independent variables.</p> <h2>Tag usage</h2> <p>Questions on <a href="/questions/tagged/regression" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged &#39;regression&#39;" rel="tag">regression</a> should be about implementation and <strong>programming</strong> problems, not about the statistical or theoretical properties of the technique.
