How to find a least squares regression line Often the questions we ask require us to make accurate predictions on how one factor affects an outcome.

The performance of Least Squares (LS) estimators is studied in shape-constrained regression models under Gaussian and sub-Gaussian noise. General bounds on the performance of LS estimators over closed ...

Linear Least Squares If you have a set of data points xi, and yi, each with errors sigma-i, which you believe should fit a straight line with a nonzero x intercept and a nonzero slope then you can get ...

The least-squares criterion is a method of measuring the accuracy of a line in depicting the data that was used to generate it. That is, the formula determines the line of best fit.
