Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the Method of Least Squares and shows how to use it to adjust and compare observations. It presents the mathematical development of the principles, methods, and formulas, and illustrates their application through numerous practical examples. The method is described in its historical context, beginning with its use in astronomy to handle observational errors and being extended to a wide range of other scientific disciplines. The author provides a detailed discussion of the principles of probability as they apply to measurement and adjustment of observations, and explores the law of probability of error. This law is then used to formulate the least squares criterion, which finds the most probable values for measured quantities. The author also examines the precision of observations and derives formulas for determining the probable error of an observation. By understanding the ideas and techniques in this book, engineers and scientists can make optimal use of their data in drawing conclusions and making informed decisions.
