Description
Assume I'm building 2 regression models on the same data (Sales ~ Price):
1. Default Linear Regression model (without standardization) with Price beta B1
2. Default Prophet model with additional regressor Price with beta B2
I want to make the regression coefficients from the two models similar in interpretation. I'm aware that the Prophet model standardizes the data before building the model. I want to know what transformation I need to perform to B2 to make it similar to the interpretation of B1. [This](https://github.com/facebook/prophet/issues/598) issue mentions setting **standardize=False** but I'm looking for a more generic interpretation and comparison of the coefficients from the two models.
