NCSS Statistical Software Chapter 335. Ridge Regression Introduction Ridge Regression is a technique for analyzing multiple Regression data that suffer from multicollinearity. When multicollinearity occurs, least squares estimates are unbiased, but their variances are large so they may be far from the true value. By adding a degree of bias to the Regression estimates, Ridge Regression reduces the standard errors. It is hoped that the net effect will be to give estimates that are more reliable. Another biased Regression technique, principal components Regression , is also available in NCSS. Ridge Regression is the more popular of the two methods.
Outliers. Extreme values or outliers in the X-space can cause multicollinearity as well as hide it. We call this outlier-induced multicollinearity. This should be corrected by removing the outliers before ridge regression is applied. Detection of Multicollinearity There are several methods of detecting multicollinearity. We mention a few. 1.
