  3. Quantitative methods include ADF, Granger causality test and ordinary least squares.

The first, we transform nonlinear regression model into linear model with transformed variables and estimate model parameters by used the methods of ordinary least squares, principal component analysis and partial least squares regression, from which the model parameters and the regression line itself can be estimated.
