Abstract:
Support vector machines (SVM), radial basis function neural networks (RBFNN) and multiple linear regression (MLR) methods were used to investigate the correlation between GC retention indexes (RI) and physicochemical descriptors for both 174 and 132 diverse organic compounds. The correlation coefficient r(2) between experimental and predicted retention index for training and test sets by SVM, RBFNN and MLR is 0.986, 0.976 and 0.971 (for 174 compounds), 0.986, 0.951 and 0.963 (for 132 compounds) respectively. The results show that non-linear SVM derives statistical models have similar prediction ability to those of RBFNN and MLR methods. This indicates that SVM can be used as an alternative modeling tool for quantitative structure-property/activity relationship (QSPR/QSAR) studies.

In regression analysis, a regression equation is determined based on the line of best fit– a line that best fits the data points plotted in a graph. This line is also called the regression line. The algebraic equation for the regression line is called the regression equation. It is represented as:

Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables.
