- The arithmetic in `` world'' is that of full
matrices which are where n is number of parameters.
- In ``linear'' case ( linear in components of
, quadratic in components), minimization
requires single solution of equations
- In ``nonlinear'' case ( nonlinear in ), one must
iteratively solve .
- Note that one expands up to linear term which gives a quadratic
approximations to .
- Thus, need to calculate
- where ``value''
