Least squares regression - removing insignificant terms quickly?
Hi all-
I am doing least squares fits, up to cubic with 15 X's. Only the 1st several ever turn out "significant", so those at the "bottom" with small p values could be removed...one at a time...as long as R^2 doesn't go down. This would be a slow iterative process, but would result in a much shorter equation. I know of one other tool that will do this.
Can JMP?
Thanks,
Dave
