Conventional regression models typically fit straight lines to data. MARS approaches model construction more flexibly, allowing for bends, thresholds, and other departures from straight-line methods. MARS builds its model by piecing together a series of straight lines with each allowed its own slope. This permits MARS to trace out any pattern detected in the data.
