THE USE OF ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS IN LEAST SQUARES SURFACE FITTING OVER RECTANGULAR GRIDS.

Abstract

This memorandum discusses the underlying theory and methodology involved in least squares surface fitting over rectangular grids using orthogonal polynomials. It further discusses tests of significance to determine what degree polynomial adequately fits the data and confidence limits about the true regression surface. (Author)
