This document provides an overview of simple linear regression and correlation. It discusses key concepts such as dependent and independent variables, scatter diagrams, regression analysis, the least-squares estimating equation, and the coefficients of determination and correlation. Scatter diagrams are used to determine the nature and strength of relationships between variables. Regression analysis finds relationships of association but not necessarily of cause and effect. The least-squares estimating equation models the dependent variable as a function of the independent variable.
Regression analysis is a statistical technique for predicting a dependent variable based on one or more independent variables. Simple linear regression fits a straight line to the data to predict a continuous dependent variable (y) from a single independent variable (x). The output is an equation of the form y= b0 + b1x + ε, where b0 is the y-intercept, b1 is the slope, and ε is the error. Multiple linear regression extends this to include more than one independent variable. Regression analysis calculates the "best fit" line that minimizes the residuals, or differences between predicted and observed y values.

This document provides an overview and outline of regression models and forecasting techniques. It discusses simple and multiple linear regression analysis, how to measure the fit of regression models, assumptions of regression models, and testing models for significance. The goals are to help students understand relationships between variables, predict variable values, develop regression equations from sample data, and properly apply and interpret regression analysis.
Linear regression analysis can be used to predict the value of a dependent variable based on the value of an independent variable. It involves finding coefficients for the regression equation that minimize the sum of squared errors between observed and predicted values. These coefficients are estimated via least squares regression. The slope and intercept of the regression line can be interpreted, and the model can be used to predict individual values that fall within the observed range of the independent variable.
This chapter introduces simple (bivariate, linear) regression analysis. It covers computing the regression line equation from sample data and interpreting the slope and intercept. It also discusses residual analysis to test regression assumptions and examine model fit, and computing measures like the standard error of the estimate and coefficient of determination to evaluate the model. The chapter teaches how to use the regression model to estimate y values and test hypotheses about the slope and model. The overall goal is for students to understand and apply the key concepts of simple regression.
Regression analysis is used to identify relationships between variables and make predictions. Simple linear regression fits a straight line to data using one independent variable to predict a dependent variable. Multiple linear regression uses more than one independent variable to explain variance in the dependent variable. The goal is to select variables that sufficiently explain variation in the dependent variable to allow for accurate prediction. Key outputs of regression include coefficients, R-squared, standard error, and significance values.

The document provides an overview of regression analysis. It defines regression analysis as a technique used to estimate the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. The key purposes of regression are to estimate relationships between variables, determine the effect of each independent variable on the dependent variable, and predict the dependent variable given values of the independent variables. The document also outlines the assumptions of the linear regression model, introduces simple and multiple regression, and describes methods for model building including variable selection procedures.
Regression is a statistical technique used to model relationships between variables. The key steps are to identify variables, select a dependent variable to predict, examine relationships visually, and find a way to predict the dependent variable using other variables. Correlation coefficients measure the strength of relationships between 0-1. Positive relationships have variables moving in the same direction, while negative relationships have them moving in opposite directions. Non-linear regression can model curvilinear relationships using quadratic terms. Logistic regression is used for categorical dependent variables.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Correlation and CauseJust because two variables are correlated, does not mean that one of the variables is the cause of the other. It could be the case, but it does not necessarily follow: There is a strong positive correlation between the number of cigarettes that one smokes a day and one's chances of contracting lung cancer (measured as the number of cases of lung cancer per hundred people who smoke a given number of cigarettes). The percentage of heavy smokers who contract lung cancer is higher than the percentage of light smokers who develop the disease, and both figures are higher than the percentage of non-smokers who get lung cancer. In this case, the cigarettes are definitely causing the cancer. There is a strong negative correlation between the total number of skiing holidays that people book for any month of the year and the total amount of ice cream that supermarkets sell for that month. This means that the more skiing holidays that are booked, the less ice cream is sold. Is there a cause here? Are people spending so much money on ice cream that they can't afford skiing holidays? Is the fact that the ice cream is so cold putting people off skiing? Clearly not! The simple fact is that most people tend to book their skiing holidays in the winter, and they tend to buy ice cream in the summer. Although a correlation between two variables doesn't mean that one of them causes the other, it can suggest a way of finding out what the true cause might be. There may be some underlying variable that is causing both of them. For instance, if a survey found that there is a correlation between the time that people spend watching television and the amount of crime that people commit, it could be because unemployed people tend to sit around watching the television, and that unemployed people are more likely to commit crime. If that were the case, then unemployment would be the true cause!
