Piecewise regression: When one line simply isn’t enough | Datadog
7/11/2017
This post introduces a technical implementation of piecewise linear regression. It describes the use of D3.js for interactive visualization, including scatter plots and cost curves. The implementation involves loading datasets, defining scales for x and y axes, and dynamically updating line segments and their associated costs as the regression model evolves. The code demonstrates how to handle raw data points, coefficients, and the evolution of segments over time, allowing for visual exploration of the regression process.
