Does this page need to exist given Bayesian linear regression? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Red.devil.ade (talk • contribs) 13:14, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is it every thing right with the math here? Usually there should be a determinant of the covariance matrix, but instead there is (Sigma) which is a bit confusing. I'm not sure if I'm right, but at least it would be nice explain why there is no determinant.

I think there is some confusion here. This page is discussing Bayesian multivariate linear regression, but there is no page on multivariate linear regression from a non-Bayesian perspective. I think people are getting confused between multiple regression and multivariate regression. The former has a scalar as the response whereas the latter has a vector as a response. There is a link to 'multivariate linear regression' but it (wrongly) takes you to 'The General Linear Model' which would be appropriate for multiple regression.
