Changing the Parameters names in regression output?

Hello fellow coders,

I am new to Matlab, and I have been scratching my head over this issue for some time: Is it possible to change the parameter names in the regression output from the generic 'x1,x2,etc...', so that they corresponds to the name of the input variables from a table (or separate variables(vectors))? This would be very helpful to make the regression output "readable".

Best regards

There are many regression methods in MATLAB. Which one are you using? Better yet, upload a small bit of code that shows the output you are trying to manipulate.

Hey guys,

Thank you both for your answers, but I could solve the problem myself. I solved it by converting the table/matrix into a Dataset. In that way the output is displayed the way I want.

Hi Anders,

If you are using the ' fitlm ' function, it uses a parameter by the name ' modelspec ', which can be used to give model specification. One method of giving the specification is by using the name of the features themselves. You can read about it here :

The notations are to be given using Wilkinson Notation.

Here is an example of the linear regression workflow that makes use of the same notations: https://in.mathworks.com/help/stats/linear-regression-workflow.html
