DETERMINATION OF PARAMETERS FOR CORRELATED DAE OF A GENERALIZED LEAST SQUARES CRITERION INVOLVING LINEARIZED RESIDUALS

Abstract

This presentation extends the least-squares methods currently in use at NOTS to cover the case of correlated data. A derivation of the theory is followed by detailed discussions of the applications to the Askania cinetheodolite solution and curve fitting of space-position data. References are given for other local applications, but specific results for these are not included.
