Basis Expansions & Regularization
We can't assure our function is linear.
To deal with non-linear problem, we can use transformed X instead of original X.
Basis Expansions and Regularization
The basis function, f(X), is linear on h even though is non linear
Form
Basic linear model
Polynomial model
Log model
Range model
When we add a third term into model, we have to add second, first, and constant term into this model. So polynomial model has the flaw of high dimension(too many independent variables.)
If you want to locally analysis the model, we have to put a range variable into this model.
To reduce the number of basis function, there are following three methods:
Methods
Example
Restriction
limited to additional model
Selection
Select only significant variables on the model
Regularization
Constrained coefficients
