  • The paper highlights the need for cautious least squares estimation when dealing with industrial applications of bilinear self-tuning control and indicates in qualitative terms the benefits of the approach over linear self-tuning control schemes. The cautious least squares algorithm is described and the use of cautious self-tuning in the context of both commissioning and implementation discussed.

  • Minimum $L_i$ norm estimation is a robust procedure ins the sense that it leads to an estimator which has greater statistical eficiency than the least squares estimator in the presence of outliers. And the $L_1$ norm estimator has some desirable statistical properties. In this paper a new computational procedure for $L_1$ norm estimation is proposed which combines the idea of reweighted least squares method and the linear programming approach. A modification of the projective transformation method is employed to solve the linear programming problem instead of the simplex method. It is proved that the proposed algorithm terminates in a finite number of iterations.

  • In this paper, a new power spectral estimation technique is presented. At first, by transforming the original data with the Karhunen-Loeve Transform(KLT), we can reduce the amount of the redundant information. Next, by modeling the transformed data by means of the autoregressive(AR) model and then applying the least-squares parameter estimation algorithm to this model, even more accurate spectrum estimates can be obtained. The KLT is the optimum transform for signal representation with respect to the mean-square error criterion. And the least-squares method is used to overcome the inherent shortcomings of popular burg algorithm.

  • A statistical method is described for estimation of the unknown constants in a theory using both of the computer simulation data and the real experimental data, The best linear unbiased predictor based on a spatial linear model is fitted from the computer simulation data alone. Then nonlinear least squares estimation method is applied to the real experimental data using the fitted prediction model as if it were the true simulation model. An application to the computational nuclear fusion devices is presented, where the nonlinear least squares estimates of four transport coefficients of the theoretical nuclear fusion model are obtained.

  • The size of microarray gene expression data is very big and its observation process is also very complex. Thus missing values are frequently occurred. In this paper we propose the sequential partial least squares(SPLS) regression fitting method to estimate missing values for time course gene expression data that has correlations among observations over time points. The SPLS method is to combine the sequential technique with the partial least squares(PLS) regression fitting method. The usefulness of method proposed is evaluated through some simulation study for three yeast time course data.

  • An accurate determination of wind speed distribution is the basis for an evaluation of the wind energy potential required to design a wind turbine, so it is important to estimate unknown parameters of wind speed distribution. In this paper, Gumbel distribution is used in modelling wind speed data, and alternative robust estimation methods to estimate its parameters are considered. The methodologies used to obtain the estimators of the parameters are least absolute deviation, weighted least absolute deviation, median/MAD and least median of squares. The performances of the estimators are compared with traditional estimation methods (i.e., maximum likelihood and least squares) according to bias, mean square deviation and total mean square deviation criteria using a Monte-Carlo simulation study for the data with and without outliers. The simulation results show that least median of squares and median/MAD estimators are more efficient than others for data with outliers in many cases. However, median/MAD estimator is not consistent for location parameter of Gumbel distribution in all cases. In real data application, it is firstly demonstrated that Gumbel distribution fits the daily mean wind speed data well and is also better one to model the data than Weibull distribution with respect to the root mean square error and coefficient of determination criteria. Next, the wind data modified by outliers is analysed to show the performance of the proposed estimators by using numerical and graphical methods.

  • An accurate and robust estimation of center of rotation (CoR) using optical marker trajectory is crucial in human biomechanics. In this regard, the performances of the two prevailing least-squares methods, the Gamage and Lasenby (GL) method, and the Chang and Pollard (CP) method, are verified in this paper. While both methods are sphere-fitting approaches in closed form and require no tuning parameters, they have not been thoroughly verified by comparison of their estimation accuracies. Furthermore, while for both methods, results for stationary CoR locations are presented, cases for perturbed CoR locations have not been investigated for any of them. In this paper, the estimation performances of the GL method and CP method are investigated by varying the range of motion (RoM) and noise amount, for both stationary and perturbed CoR locations. The difference in the estimation performance according to the variation in the amount of noise and RoM was clearly shown for both methods. However, the CP method outperformed the GL method, as seen in results from both the simulated and the experimental data. Particularly, when the RoM is small, the GL method failed to estimate the appropriate CoR while the CP method reasonably maintained the accuracy. In addition, the CP method showed a considerably better predictability in CoR estimation for the perturbed CoR location data than the GL method. Accordingly, it may be concluded that the CP method is more suitable than the GL method for CoR estimation when RoM is limited and CoR location is perturbed.

  • This paper introduces the least-squares order-recursive lattice (LSORL) Laguerre smoother that has order-recursive smoothing structure based on the Laguerre signal representation. The LSORL Laguerre smoother gives excellent performance for a channel equalization problem with smaller order of tap-weights than its counterpart algorithm based on the transversal filter structure. Simulation results show that the LSORL Laguerre smoother gives better performance than the LSORL transversal smoother.

  • Least-squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) has been very successful in pattern recognition and function estimation problems for crisp data. In this paper, we propose LS-SVM approach to evaluating fuzzy regression model with multiple crisp inputs and a Gaussian fuzzy output. The proposed algorithm here is model-free method in the sense that we do not need assume the underlying model function. Experimental result is then presented which indicate the performance of this algorithm.

  • In this paper, we propose the one-step least squares method based on the squared differences to estimate the parameters of the variogram used for spatial data modelling, and discuss its asymptotic efficiency. The proposed method does not require to specify lags of interest and partition lags, so that we can delete the subjectiveness and ambiguity originated from the lag selection in estimating spatial dependence.
