ORANGE Navigator & Optimizer Frequently Asked Questions

Question number FAQ-0982

While a correlation between design variables in a scatter matrix can lead to multicollinearity and is problematic, what happens when a correlation exists between the design variables and the response variable?

If there is a correlation between the design variable and the response variable, the contribution will be higher. Unlike when there is a correlation between the design variables themselves, this is not a bad situation.
