Hi All,
I am trying to do multivariate polynomial regression in excel, trying to correlate data of the form y=f(x1,x2) with second order polynomials:
Y = c + a1*x1 + a2*x1^2 + a3^x1^3 + b1*x2 + b2*x2^2 + b3*x2^3
Using the following command, I have achieved this:
=LINEST(A2:A10,B2:B10^{1,2,3,0,0,0}*C2:C10^{0,0,0, 1,2,3},TRUE,TRUE)
Can anybody tell me the theory Excel uses for this kind of regression?
Thank you very much in advance!
