1. Abstract:
I have createdthisreportto examine qualitypropertiesfromawine dataset.Thiswine datasetis
focusedona wine vineyardfrom portugual calledvinhoverde. Thisvineyardcreatesaclassof wines
that are consideredextrodinary exceptinthe eyesof the French.Thisdatasetcontainsalarge sample
(over1000 observations) inwhichexpertwine tastersprovidefeedbackonthe qualityof the redwines
producedbyvinhoverde.These qualityratingsare attachedtothe individual red winequantitative
charactersiticsthatare trackedthroughoutthe productionof eachindividual bottle of theirredwine.
Thisdatasetcontains12 quantitative variablesthathave beendeterminedtodefine quality
characteristicsof a bottle of wine. Iam usingthe dependentvariablequalityandthe independent
variablesare: fixed_acidity volatile_acidity citric_acid residual_sugar
chlorides free_sulfur_dioxide total_sulfur_dioxide density pH sulphates and
alcohol content. These independent variables have been predertermined to
define the final taste of a wine. From this context I want to create a model
that can show what quantitative characteristics are associated with the
dependent variable quality wines. To me wine is an interesting subject I am
currently taking the wine class offered at KSU and this is where I fell in
love with Vinho Verde wines and I hope to one day be able to make my own
wines so if I can create a model that can quantify and key in on the
characteristics that I like about this wine then I feel that this modeling
information will give me great insight into quality wine characteristics.
This dataset comes from a website called
https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/machine-learning-databases/wine-quality/ that
is a database dedicated to free datasets that are useful from around the
world.

For the First Model that I want to introduce I created a simple first order model wheras quality is my
dependent variable and my independent variables are fixed_acidity volatile_acidity citric_acid
residual_sugar chlorides free_sulfur_dioxide total_sulfur_dioxide density pH sulphates and alcohol
content. My hypothesis test is that I can build a model that shows the chemical characteristics of these
independent variable is correlated to the variable quality. If we take a look at table 2 we can see that there
is a the overall global f test shows that this model overall could be useful but I am concerned because the
adjusted r value is relatively low at 36%. This means that while the overall model maybe usefull there
could be some independent variables that attribute to the quality variable not accounted for in this model.
I have set my alpha level at 90% and when we take a look at table 3 there are7 independent variables that
I will include into my model volatile_acidity chlorides free_sulfur_dioxide total_sulfur_dioxide ph
sulphates and alcohol.Before model we must take a look at table3 and see if there is any potential
multicollinearity. Based on the VIF from table3 none of the variables have a VIF greater than 10 so there
is not potential multicollinarity concerns in this model so my proposed model is :

3. Quality= 21.96521-1.08359vc-1.87423chl+0.00436freesulfur-0.00326totalsulfur-
0.41365ph+0.91633sulphates+0.27620alcohol
Model 2.
This next model I want to use the model format from the previous selection where quality is my dependent and
fixed_acidity volatile_acidity citric_acid residual_sugar chlorides free_sulfur_dioxide
total_sulfur_dioxide density pH sulphates and alcohol content are still my independent but I want to
perform stepwise regression modeling techniques to see if I missed a potential independent variable that
could be useful in my model. Based on table5 the stepwise selection procedure reported the same
findings which were reported in model 1.

Model 3:
In this model I want to hypothesis that when I transform quality by only modeling high quality wines
which I define as a rating of 7 or higher on a scale of 1-10 that I can create a model that indicates what
chemical characteristics from the list of independent variables of these high quality wines can be looked
at as significant in modeling quality. If we take at look at table 6 we see that the global test barely fails at
the .10 alpha level I have set. With this inmind and the very low adjusted r squared at 11% I feel that this

4. model will not be helpful in predicting high quality wine. If we move down to table7 we see that the only
independent variable that is usefull is alcohol at the .10 alpha level. This is an interesting result I was
expecting a quite different result. With all of this information in mind I will reject this model and say that
it will not be useful without further data mining.
