Ridge Regression

a technique for analyzing multiple regression data that suffer from multicollinearity. Multicollinearity, or collinearity, is the existence of near-linear relationships among the independent variables. When multicollinearity occurs, least squares estimates are unbiased, but their variances are large so they may be far from the true value. By adding a degree of bias to the regression estimates, ridge regression reduces the standard errors.
