Computational methods for fitting nonlinear models have developed considerably in the last decade. Statistical use of these techniques has, as yet, lagged somewhat behind. The present paper gives a ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis contains research articles on the development and analysis of numerical methods including their convergence, stability, and error ...

General aspects of polynomial interpolation theory. Formulations in different basis, e.g. Lagrange, Newton etc. and their approximation and computational properties ...

Optical systems employ a rich array of physical effects which are described by well-understood equations. However, for all but the simplest devices these equations are typically too complex to permit ...
