An Iterative Technique for Absolute Deviations Curve Fitting

Pages 857-859 | Received 01 May 1972, Published online: 05 Apr 2012
 

Abstract

An iterative technique is proposed for the absolute deviations regression of data. At the heart of the technique is any standard least squares curve fitting algorithm. Hence, the resulting regression procedure is computationally simple, requires less storage and is faster than the linear programming algorithm recently proposed as a solution to this problem. Problems associated with non-unique solutions in least absolute deviations regression are also discussed.
