Abstract: | The weighted total least-squares solution (WTLSS) is presented for an errors-in-variables model with fairly general variance–covariance
matrices. In particular, the observations can be heteroscedastic and correlated, but the variance–covariance matrix of the
dependent variables needs to have a certain block structure. An algorithm for the computation of the WTLSS is presented and
applied to a straight-line fit problem where the data have been observed with different precision, and to a multiple regression
problem from recently published climate change research. |
