Excerpt from Nonlinear Least Squares Regression Using Starpac: The Standards Time Series and Regression Package
Other code segments of starpac include subroutines for time series analysis (in both time and frequency domains), line printer graphics, basic statistical analysis, linear least squares regression, and -nonlinear Optimization. Users may obtain a list of the available code segments and their associated documentation from their local installer of starpac, or directly from the author. Notation, format, and naming conventions will remain constant throughout the series of Technical Notes documenting starpac, allowing the documentation for each code segment to be used alone or in conjunction with the documentation for another.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the principles of nonlinear least squares regression â" a form of statistical analysis that allows for the modeling of variables that do not follow a linear path. The author provides a detailed exposition of the techniques and algorithms used to solve nonlinear least squares problems and discusses several methods for both approximating and checking the derivatives of the model with respect to each parameter. The author emphasizes practical considerations and provides detailed guidance on coding and using STARPAC, a library of Fortran subroutines for statistical data analysis. Through worked examples, the author illustrates how to select optimal step sizes for approximating the derivatives numerically, how to numerically verify the correctness of user-supplied derivatives, and how to handle problems that arise from the singularity of the model or from false convergence. This book is written to be accessible to anyone with a working knowledge of the basics of linear least squares analysis, and is a valuable resource for statisticians, engineers, and scientists who need to analyze nonlinear data. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
