Details
Davison (2003) explores fitting models to this data using forward
and backward stepwise regression. In this modelling logs of quantiative variables
are used. We have also standardized this data to facilitate comparison with
other techniques such as LARS and principal component regression.
Davison and Hinkley (1997, Example 6.8, 6.10, 6.12) use this data in
a series of examples.
Example 6.8: estimation of prediction error.
Example 6.10: prediction error using cross-validation and bootstrapping.
Example 6.12: subset model selection using cross-validation.
