A nonlinear least squares estimation procedure without initial parameter guesses
Abstract-- This paper introduces a convex formulation approach for the initialization of parameter estimation problems (PEP). The proposed method exploits the parameter-affine feat...

Least Squares Estimation Without Priors or Supervision
Selection of an optimal estimator typically relies on either supervised training samples (pairs of measurements and their associated true values), or a prior probability model for...

Novel metaheuristic for parameter estimation in nonlinear dynamic biological systems
Background: We consider the problem of parameter estimation (model calibration) in nonlinear dynamic models of biological systems. Due to the frequent ill-conditioning and multi-m...

On the Performance of Linear Least-Squares Estimation in Wireless Positioning Systems
A common technique for wireless positioning is to estimate time-of-arrivals (TOAs) of signals traveling between a target node and a number of reference nodes, and then to determin...

Least-Squares Independent Component Analysis
Accurately evaluating statistical independence among random variables is a key element of Independent Component Analysis (ICA). In this paper, we employ a squared-loss variant of ...
