NOTE ON A NEW COMPUTATIONAL DATA SMOOTHING PROCEDURE SUGGESTED BY MINIMUM MEAN SQUARE ERROR ESTIMATION

Abstract

The form taken by minimum mean square error estimation procedures is investigated for the case where the dependence of the observed data on the parameters can, with good approximation, be considered to contain only constant, linear, and quadratic terms. The resulting procedures can be considered as alternatives to the iterative procedures used in least squares.
