//! # Linear Regression
//!
//! Linear regression is a very straightforward approach for predicting a quantitative response \\(y\\) on the basis of a linear combination of explanatory variables \\(X\\).
//! Linear regression assumes that there is approximately a linear relationship between \\(X\\) and \\(y\\). Formally, we can write this linear relationship as
//!
//! \\[y \approx \beta_0 + \sum_{i=1}^n \beta_iX_i + \epsilon\\]
//!
//! where \\(\epsilon\\) is a mean-zero random error term and the regression coefficients \\(\beta_0, \beta_0, ... \beta_n\\) are unknown, and must be estimated.
//!
//! While regression coefficients can be estimated directly by solving
//!
//! \\[\hat{\beta} = (X^TX)^{-1}X^Ty \\]
//!
//! the \\((X^TX)^{-1}\\) term is both computationally expensive and numerically unstable. An alternative approach is to use a matrix decomposition to avoid this operation.
//! SmartCore uses [SVD](../../linalg/svd/index.html) and [QR](../../linalg/qr/index.html) matrix decomposition to find estimates of \\(\hat{\beta}\\).
//! The QR decomposition is more computationally efficient and more numerically stable than calculating the normal equation directly,
//! but does not work for all data matrices. Unlike the QR decomposition, all matrices have an SVD decomposition.
//!
//! Example:
//!
//! ```
//! use smartcore::linalg::naive::dense_matrix::*;
//! use smartcore::linear::linear_regression::*;
//!
//! // Longley dataset (https://www.statsmodels.org/stable/datasets/generated/longley.html)
