Fitting Parameter Uncertainties In Least Squares Fitting, R. Steven Turley

Faculty Publications

This article review the theory and practice of computing uncertainties in the fit parameters in least squares fits. It shows how to estimate the uncertainties and gives some numerical examples in Julia of their use. Examples are given and validated for both linear and nonlinear fits.
