Least squares — The method of least squares is a standard approach to the approximate solution of overdetermined systems, i.e., sets of equations in which there are more equations than unknowns. Least squares means that the overall solution minimizes the sum of… … Wikipedia
Least-squares estimation of linear regression coefficients — In parametric statistics, the least squares estimator is often used to estimate the coefficients of a linear regression. The least squares estimator optimizes a certain criterion (namely it minimizes the sum of the square of the residuals). In… … Wikipedia
Linear least squares (mathematics) — This article is about the mathematics that underlie curve fitting using linear least squares. For statistical regression analysis using least squares, see linear regression. For linear regression on a single variable, see simple linear regression … Wikipedia
Iteratively re-weighted least squares — The method of iteratively re weighted least squares (IRLS) is a numerical algorithm for minimizing any specified objective function using a standard weighted least squares method such as Gaussian elimination. Whereas techniques are widely… … Wikipedia
Gauss' principle of least constraint — The principle of least constraint is another formulation of classical mechanics enunciated by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1829.The principle of least constraint is a least squares principle stating that the true motion of a mechanical system of N… … Wikipedia
Singular value decomposition — Visualization of the SVD of a 2 dimensional, real shearing matrix M. First, we see the unit disc in blue together with the two canonical unit vectors. We then see the action of M, which distorts the disk to an ellipse. The SVD decomposes M into… … Wikipedia
Determination of equilibrium constants — Equilibrium constants are determined in order to quantify chemical equilibria. When an equilibrium constant is expressed as a concentration quotient, it is implied that the activity quotient is constant. In order for this assumption to be valid… … Wikipedia
Nonlinear programming — In mathematics, nonlinear programming (NLP) is the process of solving a system of equalities and inequalities, collectively termed constraints, over a set of unknown real variables, along with an objective function to be maximized or minimized,… … Wikipedia
MINPACK — is a library of FORTRAN subroutines for the solving of systems of nonlinear equations, or the least squares minimization of the residual of a set of linear or nonlinear equations.MINPACK, along with other similar libraries such as LINPACK and… … Wikipedia
Ellipsometry — is a versatile and powerful optical technique for the investigation of the dielectric properties (complex refractive index or dielectric function) of thin films. It has applications in many different fields, from semiconductor physics to… … Wikipedia
