3.2.2 Solving the Least-Squares Problem
The response surface must minimize the least-squares of

(3.11) |
Setting (3.11) to zero gives the formula for
calculating the response surface
|
(3.12) |
The matrix
is also called the left-pseudo-inverse.
It is a left-inverse of
because
has to be multiplied by
this matrix from the right side to yield the identity matrix

(3.13) |
For a minimum in least-squares of the error
the second derivative
|
(3.14) |
must be nonsingular.
This is the case if the if the matrix
has full column rank.
For practical use the vector
can be
calculated by a Gauß-solver with the system matrix
and the data vector
.
