Different Types of Regression Models - Analytics Vidhya

Predictive modelling techniques such as regression analysis may be used to determine the relationship between a dataset's dependent (goal) and independent variables. It is widely used when the dependent and independent variables are linked in a linear or non-linear fashion, and the target variable has a set of continuous values. Thus, regression analysis approaches help establish causal relationships between variables, modelling time series, and forecasting. Regression analysis, for example, is the best way to examine the relationship between sales and advertising expenditures for a corporation.
