Percentage Variation Explained by Regression<br />

This is a statistic often reported by linear least squares packages. In <strong>GPS</strong>-X it has been<br />

modified to handle nonlinear maximum likelihood problems with heteroscedasticity. The<br />

statistic, adapted from Steiner et al. (1990), is calculated as follows for each target<br />

variable:<br />

Equation 14.29<br />

It is multiplied by 100 to get a percentage. The variable SS j is the weighted residual sum<br />

of squares for response j and is defined by:<br />

Equation 14.30<br />

The variable SSmean j is the total weighted sum of squares corrected for the mean and is<br />

defined below:<br />

Equation 14.31<br />

z<br />

where<br />

j<br />

as:<br />

Equation 14.32<br />

is a weighted average of the measured values for response j and is calculated<br />
