Numerical Methods for Least Squares Problems

Ranked #87 in Numerical Analysis

The method of least squares was discovered by Gauss in 1795 and has since become the principal tool for reducing the influence of errors when fitting models to given observations. Today, applications of least squares arise in a great number of scientific areas, such as statistics, geodetics, signal processing, and control. In the last 20 years there has been a great increase in the capacity for automatic data capturing and computing and tremendous progress has been made in numerical methods for least squares problems. Until now there has not been a monograph that covers the full spectrum of... more
