Polynomial Regression-Update

The document discusses using polynomial regression to fit data with nonlinear patterns by using quadratic and cubic polynomial curves of higher degrees than a simple linear regression line to better capture the underlying relationships in the data and reduce underfitting.

Polynomial Regression

Plot original data Linear regression Polynomial Quadratic (degree=2)

Polynomial Cubic (degree=3)

Summary:
• The straight line is unable to capture the
patterns in the data. This is an example
of under-fitting.
• To overcome under-fitting, we need to
increase the complexity of the model use
polynomial .
• Fit the dataset with Quadratic curve
(degree=2) – get better result than linear line.
• Fit a cubic curve (degree=3) to the dataset,
the line passes through more data points
than the quadratic and the linear plots
