New fast least-squares algorithm for estimating the best-fitting parameters due to simple geometric-structures from gravity anomalies

A new fast least-squares method is developed to estimate the shape factor (q-parameter) of a buried structure using normalized residual anomalies obtained from gravity data. The problem of shape factor estimation is transformed into a problem of finding a solution of a non-linear equation of the for...
