• Explained sum of squares — In statistics, an explained sum of squares (ESS) is the sum of squared predicted values in a standard regression model (for example y {i}=a+bx {i}+epsilon {i}), where y {i} is the response variable, x {i} is the explanatory variable, a and b are… …   Wikipedia

• Lack-of-fit sum of squares — In statistics, a sum of squares due to lack of fit, or more tersely a lack of fit sum of squares, is one of the components of a partition of the sum of squares in an analysis of variance, used in the numerator in an F test of the null hypothesis… …   Wikipedia

• Proofs of Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares — Fermat s theorem on sums of two squares asserts that an odd prime number p can be expressed as: p = x^2 + y^2with integer x and y if and only if p is congruent to 1 (mod 4). The statement was announced by Fermat in 1640, but he supplied no proof …   Wikipedia
