Applications of Linear and Nonlinear Models

Erik W. Grafarend / Joseph L. Awange / Silvelyn Zwanzig

This book provides numerous examples of linear and nonlinear model applications. Here, we present a nearly complete treatment of the Grand Universe of linear and weakly nonlinear regression models within the first 8 chapters. Our point of view is both an algebraic view and a stochastic one. For example, there is an equivalent lemma between a best, linear uniformly unbiased esti...
