ABSTRACT
This paper gives a comprehensive discussion on
complex regression model by extending the idea of regression model to circular
variables. Various aspect have been considered such as the biasness of
parameters, error assumptions and model checking. The advantage of this
approach is that it allows the use of usual technique available in ordinary linear
regression for the regression of circular variables. The quality of the
estimates and the feasibility of the approach were illustrated via simulation.
The model was then applied to the wave direction data.
Keywords:
Circular variables; complex linear regression model; Kolmogorov-Smirnov test;
ordinary regression model
ABSTRAK
Artikel ini membincangkan model regresi kompleks
yang merupakan lanjutan daripada model regresi berarah. Pelbagai aspek
dipertimbangkan seperti kepincangan parameter, andaian ralat dan pendiagnosisan
kesahihan model tersebut. Kelebihan kaedah ini adalah ianya membenarkan
penggunaan teknik sedia ada untuk model regresi linear biasa untuk regresi
berarah. Kualiti anggaran parameter dan kebolehan kaedah ini disahkan dengan
kajian simulasi. Model ini kemudiannya diterapkan kepada data arah ombak.
Kata
kunci: Model linear regresi kompleks; model regresi biasa; ujian
