How do we can use regression analysis for prediction such as earthquake and seawater level changes?
Regression analysis was first proposed as a way of explaining why the offspring of very tall or very short parents tends (to regress) back toward the normal distribution of the entire population. Regression analysis can be used to evaluate any data that has random components to not overestimate the significance of one or a few extreme data points (sea levels or earthquake frequency or severity, etc.). However, it is likely only one factor in a good analysis (considering that a single straw was enough to break the camel’s back!).
