Least squares parameter estimation and multi-innovation least squares methods for linear fitting problems from noisy data
Abstract
Least squares is an important method for solving linear fitting problems and quadratic optimization problems. This paper explores the properties of the least squares methods and the multi-innovation least squares methods. It ...
Circle fitting by linear and nonlinear least squares

The problem of determining the circle of best fit to a set of points in the plane (or the obvious generalization ton-dimensions) is easily formulated as a nonlinear total least-squares problem which may be solved using a Gauss-Newton minimization ...

ICFCSA '11: Proceedings of the 2011 International Conference on Future Computer Sciences and Application

Separable nonlinear least squares (SNLS) problem is a special class of nonlinear least squares (NLS) problems, whose objective function is a mixture of linear and nonlinear functions. It has many applications in many different areas, especially in ...
