| Abstract: | The relationship between various parameters characterizing a particular system are established using various techniques. In some specific cases, ordinary multiple regression is resorted to for relating one variable to various other variables. However, in such problems there is a high probability of an interrelationship among different variables giving rise to multicollinearity, thereby making it infeasible to place much reliability on ordinary regression techniques. This problem can be circumvented using ridge regression techniques. In this preent investigation an attempt has been made to study the multicollinear problems in biology. |
