To assess whether factors selected by the MARS methodology may be representative of another, correlated factor, the degree of correlation between potentially influential factors was calculated. For correlations between continuous variables, the Pearson correlation coefficient was used. For relationships between factor and continuous variables, Kruskal-Wallis tests were conducted, and for relationships between factors, the chi-squared metric was calculated. Results Model Performance The results of all MARS model predictions alongside actual results are shown in Figure 5-9 for each surface and plot within each surface.
