\section{Overview}
Beta regression is used when the output $y$ is between 0 and 1, that is $y\in[0,1]$. Common examples include the fraction of employees participating in a company 401k plan or any response that is a percentage.
Such Linear regression has often been applied due to its simplicity but such data violates key assumptions. First, responses bounded by 0 and 1 are not normally distributed. Second, such data is usually
heteroskedastic: they show more variation around heteroscedastic. For example, the
mean and less variation variance shrinks as
we approach the boundaries 0 and 1. Also, the
distributions are usually asymmetric and Gaussian-based mean approaches
are often inaccurate. the boundary point 0, 1. Instead, beta regression assumes the response to follow a \textit{beta distribution}. The beta distribution is usually given by
\begin{equation}
{f(y;p,q)} = {\frac{\Gamma(p+q)}{\Gamma(p)\Gamma(q)}}y^{p-1}(1-y)^{q-1}, \quad 0
\end{equation}
