Logarithmic regression expresses

y

as a logarithmic function of

x

. The standard

logarithmic regression formula is

y

=

a

+

b

× log

x

, so if we say that X = log

x

, the

formula corresponds to linear regression formula

y

=

a

+

b

X.

Exponential regression expresses

y

as a proportion of the exponential function of

x

.

The standard exponential regression formula is

y

=

a

×

e

bx

, so if we take the loga-

rithms of both sides we get log

y

= log

a

bx

. Next, if we say Y = log

y

, and A = log

a

,

the formula corresponds to linear regression formula Y = A +
