Feature: Method Comparison and Linearity Allow for 6 different Regression Measurements
In experiment settings you may now select the type of regression analysis for your acceptance criterias. This allows for more advanced testing or when your analytical methods have an expected difference making Allowable Error testing inapplicable to the performance evaluation. See Quantitative Linearity and Quantitative Method Comparison for more information.
You may choose from the following regression types:
Name | Definition |
---|---|
Deming Variance Ratio (vr) | Quantifies the agreement between two measurement methods, considering measurement errors. A maximum allowable difference from 1 is standard. = Variance of X = Variance of Y |
Passing Bablok Correlation Coefficient (r) | Measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two measurement methods using Passing Bablok regression. A minimum absolute value of 0.95 is standard for strong correlation. = Covariance of X and Y = Variance of X = Variance of Y |
Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r) | Measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. A minimum absolute value of 0.95 is standard for strong correlation. = Covariance of X and Y = Standard Deviation of X = Standard Deviation of Y = Number of data points = Individual data point of variable = Individual data point of variable Y = Mean of variable X = Mean of variable Y |
R-squared (R²) Coefficient | R-squared is a statistical measure that represents the proportion of the variance in the dependent variable that is explained by the independent variables in a regression model. It ranges from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating a better fit. Usually >0.95 is considered statistical correlation. = Coefficient of determination = Observed value = Predicted value = Mean of observed values = Sample size |
Sample Correlation Coefficient (R) | The sample correlation coefficient (R) quantifies the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables based on sample data. A min value of 0.95 is standard. = Coefficient of Determination |
Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient (p) | Measures the strength and direction of a monotonic relationship between two variables. A minimum absolute value of 0.95 is standard for strong correlation. = Difference between ranks of X and Y = Number of pairs |
