Selecting Wavelengths for Least Squares Range Estimation

Least Squares Estimation

Recursive Least Squares Estimation

We start with estimation of a constant based on several noisy measurements. Suppose we have a resistor but do not know its resistance. So we measure it several times using a cheap (and noisy) multimeter. How do we come up with a good estimate of the resistance based on these noisy measurements? More formally, suppose x = (x1, x2, . . . , xn) T is a constant but unknown vector, and y = (y1, y2, ...

Nonlinear Least-squares Estimation

The paper uses empirical process techniques to study the asymptotics of the least-squares estimator for the fitting of a nonlinear regression function. By combining and extending ideas of Wu and Van de Geer, it establishes new consistency and central limit theorems that hold under only second moment assumptions on the errors. An application to a delicate example of Wu’s illustrates the use of t...

Least Squares Techniques for GPS Receivers Positioning Filter using Pseudo-range and Carrier Phase Measurements

In present study, using Least Squares (LS) method, we determine the position smoothing in GPS single-frequency receiver by means of pseudo-range and carrier phase measurements. The application of pseudo-range or carrier phase measurements in GPS receiver positioning separately can lead to defects. By means of pseudo-range data, we have position with less precision and more distortion. By use of...

Least – Squares Method For Estimating Diffusion Coefficient

 Abstract: Determination of the diffusion coefficient on the base of solution of a linear inverse problem of the parameter estimation using the Least-square method is presented in this research. For this propose a set of temperature measurements at a single sensor location inside the heat conducting body was considered. The corresponding direct problem was then solved by the application of the ...
