Linear least squares
Linear least squares is a method of solving mathematics/statistical problems. It uses least squares algorithmic technique to increase accuracy of solution approximations, corresponding with a particular problem's complexity:
- Linear least squares (mathematics); also ordinary least squares (mathematics), or numerical methods for linear/ordinary least squares; concerning the mathematics and computational aspects of the corresponding optimisation problem
- Linear regression, concerning the statistical context in which linear least squares often arises. Special cases are:
- Simple linear regression or straight line regression
- Ordinary least squares (statistics) or Linear least squares (statistics)
- Weighted least squares
- Generalized least squares
- Linear regression, concerning the statistical context in which linear least squares often arises. Special cases are:
