Excerpt from General Principles of the Method of Least Squares: With Applications
The preparation of this volume was undertaken with the view of presenting in as simple and concise a manner as possible the fundamental principles of the Method of Least Squares. While it is believed that everything essential to the solution of all ordinary problems has been included, no attempt has been made to develop at length those special methods and forms that are so useful and almost necessary in case large numbers of observations of certain kinds, such, for instance, as those met with in geodetic and astronomical measurements, are to be adjusted.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the theory and practical applications of the Method of Least Squares, a powerful statistical tool used to determine the most probable values of unknown quantities based on a series of observations. This method is widely used in various fields, including surveying, astronomy, physics, engineering, and many more. The author presents the fundamental principles of the method, including the concept of errors, the derivation of the equation of the curve of error, and the adjustment of observations. The book also covers advanced topics such as the precision of observations, conditioned observations, and the comparison of the reliability of different measurements. By exploring these concepts, the author demonstrates how the Method of Least Squares can significantly enhance the accuracy and precision of scientific measurements and observations.
