Linear regression has been taught repeatedly in self-claimed China-top1 statistics school since I was admitted. Nonlinearity arises in various ways in statistical and econometric modeling and applications. For instance, Constant Elasticity of Substituion production function: ...
Nonlinear Regression Model: = (; ) + , = 1 : response variable = (1): predictors = (1) : parameters (unknown) : random error (unobserved) Assumptions: 1,...,are iid with mean 0 and variance 2(unknown) Matrix notation: = (; ) + where = (1) , = (1) , = (1) and are ...
Nonlinear regression models are generally assumed to be parametric, where the model is described as a nonlinear equation. Typically machine learning methods are used for non-parametric nonlinear regression. Parametric nonlinear regression models the dependent variable (also called the response) as a ...
This example shows how to fit a nonlinear regression model for data with nonconstant error variance. Regular nonlinear least squares algorithms are appropriate when measurement errors all have the same variance. When that assumption is not true, it is appropriate to used a weighted fit. This examp...

Two results for D 胃 -optimal designs for nonlinear regression models are shown to follow directly from approximate design theory. The first result considered is one concerning the replication of exact designs with minimum support, first established by A. C. Atkinson and W. G. Hunter [...
Nonlinear regression is a form of regression analysis in which data fit to a model is expressed as a mathematical function.
nlis notable because it was written in Stata’s programming language. Stata is fully programmable; even if we had not written thenlcommand for you, with (admittedly considerable) work, you could have written it yourself. In fact, the first versions ofnlwere written by users; seeDanuso (1991...
Polynomial regressionSmoothness priors represent prior information that an unknown function does not change slope quickly and hence that the function describes a simple curve (e.g., Wahba 1978). In this article such priors for the multiple nonlinear regression model are developed in such a way ...
