The process of using past cost information to predict future costs is called cost estimation. While many methods are used for cost estimation, the least-squares regression method of cost estimation is ...

In this paper a least squares method, using the minus one norm developed by Bramble, Lazarov, and Pasciak, is introduced to approximate the solution of the Reissner-Mindlin plate problem with small ...

Various books and articles have highlighted problems inherent in a least squares analysis of disproportionate cell data. The method of unweighted means, an approximate but much simpler technique, was ...
