Definitions:

Multiple Determination

A statistical measure represented as R^2, indicating the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that can be predicted from the independent variables.

Regression Hyperplane

In multivariate statistics, it's a flat subspace that best fits the data points in a regression analysis.

Total Variation

The overall measure of variability or spread in a dataset.

Predictor Variables

Variables that are used in statistical models to predict or explain changes in the dependent variable.
