The widely used fitting method of least squares is neither unique nor does it provide the most accurate results. Other fitting methods exist which differ on the metric norm can be used for expressing the total deviations between the given data and the fitted statistical model. The least square method is based on the Euclidean norm L2, while the alternative least absolute deviations method is based on the Taxicab norm, L1. In general, there is an infinite number of fitting methods based on metric spaces induced by Lq norms. The most accurate, and thus optimal method, is the one with the (i) highest sensitivity, given by the curvature at the minimum of total deviations, (ii) the smallest errors of the fitting parameters, (iii) best goodness of fitting. The first two cases concern fitting methods where the given curve functions or datasets do not have any errors, while the third case deals with fitting methods where the given data are assigned with errors.

Abstract This paper presents an estimation method of double exponential pulse (DEP) between the physical parameters rise time (t r), full width at half maximum amplitude (t FWHM) and the mathematical parameters α, β. A newly fitting method based on the least infinity norm criterion is proposed to deal with the estimation problem of DEP. The calculation process and equation of parameters of this method is proposed based on an m-th-order polynomial fitting model. This estimation method is compared with the least square method by the same data and fitting function. The results show that the maximum estimation error of parameters of double exponential pulse obtained by the least infinity norm method is 1.5 %.

To overcome the shortcomings of the Bouc–Wen model, such as too many parameters, complex identification process, and long time consuming, the sensitivity of parameters was analyzed. A Bouc–Wen optimum model with sensitive parameters to guarantee calculating accuracy was established. First, according to the results of the magnetorheological damper’s mechanical property test, the sensitivity of Bouc–Wen model’s parameters was analyzed by the one-at-a-time method. Optimization of the Bouc–Wen model was completed. Second, the parameters of the Bouc–Wen optimum model were identified under three harmonic excitations. Compared with the original Bouc–Wen model, the differences of calculation accuracy were 0.0055, 0.0007, and 0.0070 respectively. And the convergence rate of the fitness function for parameter identification increased by 67.89%, 49.94%, and 67.24%, respectively. And the iteration time of 1000 iterations was shortened by 36.52%, 25.95%, and 64.11%, respectively. It indicates that the Bouc–Wen optimum model had higher efficiency and certain accuracy in parameter identification process. Then, the calculation accuracy of Bouc–Wen optimum model with independent and coupled mean parameters were analyzed respectively. Finally, the parameters of the Bouc–Wen optimum model and current were fitted by the least square method. The results showed that the Bouc–Wen optimum model can accurately and efficiently simulate the dynamic characteristics of magnetorheological dampers.

Aiming at the problem of prediction accuracy of stochastic volatility series, this paper proposes a method to optimize the grey model(GM(1,1)) from the perspective of residual error. In this study, a new fitting method is firstly used, which combines the wavelet function basis and the least square method to fit the residual data of the true value and the predicted value of the grey model(GM(1,1)). The residual prediction function is constructed by using the fitting method. Then, the prediction function of the grey model(GM(1,1)) is modified by the residual prediction function. Finally, an example of the wavelet residual-corrected grey prediction model (WGM) is obtained. The test results show that the fitting accuracy of the wavelet residual-corrected grey prediction model has irreplaceable advantages.

There are different attitude determination methods which have been used in satellite and spacecraft by star tracker. Each of these methods have its own advantages and disadvantages depending on their application, stochastic characteristic of noise on sensors (bias or noise), and weight of noise falling on different sensors. The present study has thus explored the major methods from two perspectives: the effect of input noise or bias on each star sensor and the corresponding weight of each noise or bias falling on each sensor. These aspects are compared in each method and the optimal method according to each condition is introduced. N Vector, Triad, Quest, Q method and least square method are the methods studied and simulated in this article. Finally, a comparison is made between the methods and the optimal method is introduced theoretically and practically. Keywords: Attitude Determination, Celestial Navigation, Triad, Quest, Least Square, Satellite.

A non-linear iterative least-square fitting method is presented for calculating the parameters of a modified gamma function. The method permits the correction of the appearance time (AT) and the curve parameters in those situations in which AT cannot be estimated with accuracy. The reliability and accuracy of the method is studied in experimental and simulated curves by means of a computer, comparing the results with those obtained by the method of Starmer and Clark for different initial selections of AT and noise at the base line. The usefulness of the method is shown in situations where the curves are distorted in their initial part.

The paper completes the multi-parametrical fitting methods, which are based on metrics induced by the non-Euclidean Lq-norms, by deriving the errors of the optimal parameter values. This was achieved using the geometric representation of the residuals sum expanded near its minimum, and the geometric interpretation of the errors. Typical fitting methods are mostly developed based on Euclidean norms, leading to the traditional least–square method. On the other hand, the theory of general fitting methods based on non-Euclidean norms is still under development; the normal equations provide implicitly the optimal values of the fitting parameters, while this paper completes the puzzle by improving understanding the derivations and geometric meaning of the optimal errors.

In contrast to computationally advanced methods of road pavement dynamic analysis, the one-dimensional, simple method is derived on the basis of visco-elastic simple beam lying on generalized Winkler visco-elastic foundation. By virtue of least square method the visco-elastic constants could be estimated with technically admissible accuracy. The introduced method is useful enough to predict any pavement deformation process in the range of linear visco-elasticity.

In this study, we introduce a new category of neurofuzzy networks – Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks and develop a comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization, and genetic algorithms, in particular. The augmented genetically optimized FPNN (referred to as gFPNN) is a structurally optimized architecture which comes with a higher level of flexibility in comparison to the one we have encountered in the conventional FPNN. The GA-based design procedure being applied to each layer of FPNN leads to the selection of preferred nodes (or FPNs) available within the FPNN. In the sequel, two general optimization mechanisms are explored. First, the structural optimization is realized via GAs whereas for the ensuing detailed parametric optimization is carried out in the setting of a standard least square method-based learning. The performance of the gFPNN is quantified through experimentation where we use a number of modeling benchmarks – synthetic and experimental data already experimented with in fuzzy or neurofuzzy modeling.

A new method for calculating the instantaneous availability was proposed based on Functional Data Analysis method. It introduced the Quadratic Bernstein Polynomial into the smoothing method firstly for the reliability which estimated by median rank method and estimated the fitting parameters by least square method. Then, under the assumption that the maintenance difficult of the CNCs was decreasing over the work time, chosen the appropriate smoothing basis function based on the trend after the time section adjustment for the estimated maintainability value. The Fourier basis system and the non-linear least squares were selected for the maintainability function smoothing method and the fitting parameters. Finally, the instantaneous availability model of CNCs was built based on the functional linear regression method, and a case example of 15 CNCs was given.
