The problem

A fitted line is easier to interpret when the relationship and noise can be changed independently.

Implementation

The demonstration generates synthetic points and computes a best-fitting line. Controls let the visitor explore the effect of noise and trend.

Architecture

Data flow
  1. Controls
  2. synthetic observations
  3. least-squares calculation
  4. canvas plot.

Technical challenge

A visual correlation can be persuasive. The explanation keeps association separate from causation.

Outcome & limitations

A working interactive demonstration for learning about linear relationships. It does not make predictions about real customers or businesses.

My project

This is part of my ROTICH TECHNOLOGIES initiative. The implementation described above is available to inspect through the working example; it is not a claim of client delivery or sole authorship.

Technology: Canvas. No public source repository is currently linked.
