TY - GEN AU - Bates,Douglas M and et al AU - Watts,Donald G TI - Nonlinear regression analysis and its application T2 - Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics SN - 9788126549375 U1 - Sa.064 23rd PY - 2007/// CY - New Delhi PB - Wiley KW - Statistics KW - Nonlinear Regression Analysis N1 - Includes bibliography and index; Review of linear regression -- Nonlinear regression: iterative estimation and linear approximations -- Practical considerations in nonlinear regression -- Multiresponse parameter estimation -- Models defined by systems of differential equations -- Graphical summaries of nonlinear inference regions -- Curvature measures of nonlinearity N2 - This book offers a balanced presentation of the theoretical, practical, and computational aspects of nonlinear regression and provides background material on linear regression, including the geometrical development for linear and nonlinear least squares. The authors employ real data sets throughout, and their extensive use of geometric constructs and continuing examples makes the progression of ideas appear very natural. The book also includes pseudocode for computing algorithms ER -
