... A number of different statistical methods are used for estimating parameters from a data set. The most commonly used one is the least squares method which estimates a parameter by minimizing the function : . where y is the dependent and x the independent variables while f is a given function. ... The most important assumptions are that the errors in the dependent variable are normal distributed, the variance is homogeneous, and the independent variables have no errors and are uncorrelated. ...
