About the Course

This course introduces simple and multiple linear regression models. These models allow you to assess the relationship between variables in a data set and a continuous response variable. Is there a relationship between the physical attractiveness of a professor and their student evaluation scores? Can we predict the test score for a child based on certain characteristics of his or her mother? In this course, you will learn the fundamental theory behind linear regression and, through data examples, learn to fit, examine, and utilize regression models to examine relationships between multiple variables, using the free statistical software R and RStudio....

A great primer on linear regression with labs that help to establish understanding and a project that is focused enough not to be overwhelming, and allows the learner to play around with the concepts

Very good course taught by Dr. Mine who is as always a very good teacher. The videos are very eloquent and easy to understand. Highly recommend it if you are looking for a basic refresher course.

Lecture explanations are fantastic as are slides. Pace is appropriate. R information is a little sketchy but manageable with diligence.

Very informative for an introduction. Wish it was longer and more mathematical, but there are other courses on Coursera for that.

Good overview of regression modeling. Would have liked to see more on logistic regression. But that's ok, can read it on my own.

Great course. I only wish there was more time spent on dealing with more complex situations such as overfitting.

The material in this course is explained very well. However it requires one has the knowledge in using R.

Contents are easier compared with other courses in this series. Quite systematic and easy to understand.

Clearly presented. R instruction is pretty minimal, so there is a lot of trial and error and googling.

I liked, but I guess it could improve little by including more topics in linear regression analysis.

The Lab could be better if there was a video that goes with it. But overall I love this course.

I learnt quite a bit. One of the most useful courses! I would suggest add more exercises in R.

This is a great course for this specialization but don't expect much depth.
