Multiple regression
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Task

Given a set of data vectors in the following format:

   
   

Compute the vector using ordinary least squares regression using the following equation:

   

You can assume y is given to you as a vector (a one-dimensional array), and X is given to you as a two-dimensional array (i.e. matrix).

ALGOL 68

Translation of: Visual Basic .NET

...but using the "to reduced echelon form" routine from Reduced row echelon form#ALGOL_68.

Algol 68 doesn't have classes, though it does have structures.
Other than that, the main differences between this and the VB.NET sample are that Algol 68 has array slicing built in and generally uses a lower bound of 1 rather than 0 for arrays.
Also, although ( ( 1, 2, 3 ), ( 6, 5, 4 ) ) is a 2x3 array, ( ( 1, 2, 3 ) ) is a 3x1 array (because ( x ) is not an array, so the outer brackets are superfluous, leaving ( 1, 2, 3 ) - i.e. a 1-dimensoional array - as the context requires a two-dimensional array, each value is coerced to an array resulting in a 3x1 two-dimensional array).

The slash and backslash operator can be used for solving this problem. Here some random data is generated.

  n=100; k=10; 
  y = randn (1,n);  % generate random vector y
  X = randn (k,n);  % generate random matrix X
  b = y / X
  b = 0.1457109  -0.0777564  -0.0712427  -0.0166193   0.0292955  -0.0079111   0.2265894  -0.0561589  -0.1752146  -0.2577663

In its transposed form yt = Xt * bt, the backslash operator can be used.

  yt = y'; Xt = X';
  bt = Xt \ yt
  bt = 
   0.1457109
  -0.0777564
  -0.0712427

Here is the example for estimating the polynomial fit

  x = [1.47 1.50 1.52 1.55 1.57 1.60 1.63 1.65 1.68 1.70 1.73 1.75 1.78 1.80 1.83]
  y = [52.21 53.12 54.48 55.84 57.20 58.57 59.93 61.29 63.11 64.47 66.28 68.10 69.92 72.19 74.46]
  X = [x.^0;x.^1;x.^2];
  b = y/X

   128.813  -143.162    61.960

Instead of "/", the slash operator, one can also write :

 b = y * X' * inv(X * X')

or

 b = y * pinv(X)

R

R provides the lm function for linear regression.

x <- c(1.47, 1.50, 1.52, 1.55, 1.57, 1.60, 1.63, 1.65, 1.68, 1.70, 1.73, 1.75, 1.78, 1.80, 1.83)
y <- c(52.21, 53.12, 54.48, 55.84, 57.20, 58.57, 59.93, 61.29, 63.11, 64.47, 66.28, 68.10, 69.92, 72.19, 74.46)

lm( y ~ x + I(x^2))
Output:
Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x + I(x^2))

Coefficients:
(Intercept)            x       I(x^2)  
     128.81      -143.16        61.96

A simple implementation of multiple regression in native R is useful to illustrate R's model description and linear algebra capabilities.

simpleMultipleReg <- function(formula) {

    ## parse and evaluate the model formula
    mf <- model.frame(formula)

    ## create design matrix
    X <- model.matrix(mf)

    ## create dependent variable
    Y <- model.response(mf)

    ## solve
    solve(t(X) %*% X) %*% t(X) %*% Y
}

simpleMultipleReg(y ~ x + I(x^2))

This produces the same coefficients as lm()

                  [,1]
(Intercept)  128.81280
x           -143.16202
I(x^2)        61.96033


A more efficient way to solve , than the method above, is to solve the linear system directly and use the crossprod function:

solve(crossprod(X), crossprod(X, Y))

A numerically more stable way is to use the QR decomposition of the design matrix:

lm.impl <- function(formula) {
  mf <- model.frame(formula)
  X <- model.matrix(mf)
  Y <- model.response(mf)
  qr.coef(qr(X), Y)
}


lm(y ~ x + I(x^2))

# Call:
# lm(formula = y ~ x + I(x^2))
#
# Coefficients:
# (Intercept)            x       I(x^2)  
#      128.81      -143.16        61.96  

lm.impl(y ~ x + I(x^2))

# (Intercept)           x      I(x^2)

(formerly Perl 6) We're going to solve the example on the Wikipedia article using Clifford, a geometric algebra module. Optimization for large vector space does not quite work yet, so it's going to take (a lof of) time and a fair amount of memory, but it should work.

Let's create four vectors containing our input data:

Then what we're looking for are three scalars , and such that:

To get for instance we can first make the and terms disappear:

Noting , we then get:

April 2016: This computation took over an hour with MoarVM, running in a VirtualBox linux system guest hosted by a windows laptop with a i7 intel processor.
March 2020: With various improvements to the language, 6.d releases of Raku now run the code 2x to 3x as fast, depending on the hardware used, but even so it is generous to describe it as 'slow'.

Ruby

Using the standard library Matrix class:

require 'matrix'

def regression_coefficients y, x
  y = Matrix.column_vector y.map { |i| i.to_f }
  x = Matrix.columns x.map { |xi| xi.map { |i| i.to_f }}

  (x.t * x).inverse * x.t * y
end

Testing 2-dimension:

puts regression_coefficients([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [ [2, 1, 3, 4, 5] ])
Output:
Matrix[[0.981818181818182]]

Testing 3-dimension: Points(x,y,z): [1,1,3], [2,1,4] and [1,2,5]

puts regression_coefficients([3,4,5], [ [1,2,1], [1,1,2] ])
Output:
Matrix[[0.9999999999999996], [2.0]]

SPSS

First, build a random dataset:

set rng=mc seed=17760704.
new file.
input program.
  vector x(4).
  loop #i=1 to 200.
    loop #j=1 to 4.
        compute x(#j)=rv.normal(0,1).
    end loop.
    end case.
  end loop.
  end file.
end input program.
compute y=1.5+0.8*x1-0.7*x2+1.1*x3-1.7*x4+rv.normal(0,1).
execute.

Now use the regression command:

regression /dependent=y
/method=enter x1 x2 x3 x4.
Output:
Regression

 a Dependent Variable: y

Stata

First, build a random dataset:

clear
set seed 17760704
set obs 200
forv i=1/4 {
	gen x`i'=rnormal()
}
gen y=1.5+0.8*x1-0.7*x2+1.1*x3-1.7*x4+rnormal()

Now, use the regress command:

reg y x*

Output

The command shows the coefficients along with a bunch of useful information, such as R2, F statistic, standard errors of the coefficients...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The regress command also sets a number of ereturn values, which can be used by subsequent commands. The coefficients and their standard errors also have a special syntax:

. di _b[x1]
.75252466

. di _b[_cons]
1.3991314

. di _se[x1]
.06895593

. di _se[_cons]
.06978623

See regress postestimation for a list of commands that can be used after a regression.

Here we compute Akaike's AIC, the covariance matrix of the estimates, the predicted values and residuals:

Ursala

This exact problem is solved by the DGELSD function from the Lapack library [1], which is callable in Ursala like this:

regression_coefficients = lapack..dgelsd

test program:

x = 

<
   <7.589183e+00,1.703609e+00,-4.477162e+00>,
   <-4.597851e+00,9.434889e+00,-6.543450e+00>,
   <4.588202e-01,-6.115153e+00,1.331191e+00>>

y = <1.745005e+00,-4.448092e+00,-4.160842e+00>

#cast %eL

example = regression_coefficients(x,y)

The matrix x needn't be square, and has one row for each data point. The length of y must equal the number of rows in x, and the number of coefficients returned will be the number of columns in x. It would be more typical in practice to initialize x by evaluating a set of basis functions chosen to model some empirical data, but the regression solver is indifferent to the model.

Output:
<9.335612e-01,1.101323e+00,1.611777e+00>

A similar method can be used for regression with complex numbers by substituting zgelsd for dgelsd, above.
