Least squares and the not-Normal Equations by Wathen, AJ

“…For many of the classic problems of linear algebra, effective and efficient numerical algorithms exist, particularly for situations where dimensions are not too large. <br> The linear least squares problem is one such: excellent algorithms exist when QR factorisation is feasible. …”

Distributed Singular Value Decomposition Through Least Squares by Zhao, Freddie

“…We show the efficacy of a distributed stochastic gradient descent algorithm by implementing parallelized alternating least squares and prove theoretical guarantees for its convergence and empirical results, which allow for the development of a simple framework for solving SVD in a correct, scalable, and easily optimizable manner.…”

Orthogonal vs. uncorrelated least squares discriminant analysis for feature extraction by Nie, Feiping, Xiang, Shiming, Liu, Yun, Hou, Chenping, Zhang, Changshui

“…We show that the orthogonal least squares discriminant analysis is an extension to the null space linear discriminant analysis, and the uncorrelated least squares discriminant analysis is exactly equivalent to the traditional linear discriminant analysis. …”

Mitigating quantization effects on distributed sensor fusion : a least squares approach by Zhu, Shanying, Chen, Cailian, Xu, Jinming, Guan, Xinping, Xie, Lihua, Johansson, Karl Henrick

“…To tackle this challenging issue, we introduce the notion of virtual measurements and propose a distributed solution LS-DSFS, which is a combination of a quantized consensus algorithm and the least squares approach. We provide detailed analysis of the LS-DSFS on its performance in terms of unbiasedness and mean square property. …”
