Robust regression for assumption violations

- [Instructor] Remember that we must validate these assumptions because from the numbers we get on the linear regression, on the summary, we have many P values and numbers that may be given false conclusions because some of the assumptions are unmet. We continue with the normality of residuals. In these plots, we have the residuals that we see in the table, which is the difference between real data and the predictions. And on average, most of them should be around zero with a bell curve shape that will hold the normality of these numbers. And here is what we get, which is kind of true. There is few data points. That's why we have maybe not so much, but again, we must validate the test with the hypothesis testing. There is another plot that says theoretical quantiles on the x axis sample quantiles, which is the real data on the Y. And if there is a line following the pattern of the points, we can say that there is a…
