General linear models
Suppose that we have a model:
It is inherently linear for the parameters if it
can be transformed into
Examples:
1,Exponential model:
1(,,; )kY F X X
0 1 1 1 1( ) (,,) (,,)k k k kf Y g X X g X X
0 1 1 2 2e x p ( )Y X X

linear:

What is the dummy variable
属性因素,Man and Woman,
City and country,
developed country and developing country
经济环境的变化,Peace and war
淡季和旺季风调雨顺和洪灾旱灾
All these have a good or bad influence on economy,

parameters:

Regression model with random
explanatory variables:
1)若 X与误差项独立,则前面所得结论仍成立,
2)若 X与误差项不相关,则 OLSE是一致估计也是渐进无偏的,
3)若 X与误差项相关,则 OLSE不是一致估计也不是渐进无偏的,OLS失效,
