Abstract

Regression analysis is an important machine learning task used for predictive analytic in business, sports analysis, etc. In regression analysis, optimization algorithms play a significant role in searching the coefficients in the regression model. In this paper, nonlinear regression analysis using a recently developed metaheuristic multi-verse optimizer (MVO) is proposed. The proposed method is applied to 10 well-known benchmark nonlinear regression problems. A comparative study has been conducted with particle swarm optimizer (PSO). The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method statistically outperforms the PSO algorithm.
