The paper demonstrates an equivalence between a fixed-effect multiple linear regression model and fitting data with a hyper-curve parameterized by a single scalar. This allows for a predictor-focused approach, where each predictor is described by a function of this chosen parameter. The study shows that a linear model can produce exact predictions even in the presence of nonlinear dependencies violating model assumptions. Applications include regularization of problems with noisy predictors and removing “improper” predictors from models. The paper uses synthetic and experimental data to demonstrate its findings, including parameterization based on the dependent variable and monomial basis.

The paper shows that a special type of math problem can be solved using a simple formula. This helps us make predictions even when there are things in the data that don’t follow the rules we thought were important. The research uses fake and real data to test this idea and shows that it works well. It’s useful for fixing problems with noisy or bad data.
