Deming Regression - Solution

Solution

The solution can be expressed in terms of the second-degree sample moments. That is, we first calculate the following quantities (all sums go from i = 1 to n):

\begin{align} & \overline{x} = \frac{1}{n}\sum x_i, \quad \overline{y} = \frac{1}{n}\sum y_i, \\ & s_{xx} = \tfrac{1}{n-1}\sum (x_i-\overline{x})^2, \\ & s_{xy} = \tfrac{1}{n-1}\sum (x_i-\overline{x})(y_i-\overline{y}), \\ & s_{yy} = \tfrac{1}{n-1}\sum (y_i-\overline{y})^2. \end{align}

Finally, the least-squares estimates of model's parameters will be

\begin{align} & \hat\beta_1 = \frac{s_{yy}-\delta s_{xx} + \sqrt{(s_{yy}-\delta s_{xx})^2 + 4\delta s_{xy}^2}}{2s_{xy}} \\ & \hat\beta_0 = \overline{y} - \hat\beta_1\overline{x}, \\ & \hat{x}_i^* = x_i + \frac{\hat\beta_1}{\hat\beta_1^2+\delta}(y_i-\hat\beta_0-\hat\beta_1x_i). \end{align}

Famous quotes containing the word solution:

    All the followers of science are fully persuaded that the processes of investigation, if only pushed far enough, will give one certain solution to each question to which they can be applied.... This great law is embodied in the conception of truth and reality. The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate is what we mean by the truth, and the object represented in this opinion is the real.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    To the questions of the officiously meddling police Falter replied absently and tersely; but, when he finally grew tired of this pestering, he pointed out that, having accidentally solved “the riddle of the universe,” he had yielded to artful exhortation and shared that solution with his inquisitive interlocutor, whereupon the latter had died of astonishment.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    Let us begin to understand the argument.
    There is a solution to everything: Science.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
