Linear and nonlinear models: fixed effects, random effects, and mixed models

Abstract

This monograph contains a thorough treatment of methods for solving over- and under-determined systems of equations, e.g. the minimum norm solution method with respect to weighted norms. The considered equations can be nonlinear or linear, and deterministic models as well as probabilistic ones are considered. An extensive appendix provides all necessary prerequisites like matrix algebra, matrix analysis and Lagrange multipliers, and a long list of reference is also included.
