Least-Squares Fitting of a Hyperplane
Robert K. Moniot
October 20, 2002
A method is developed for fitting a hyperplane to a
set of data by least-squares, allowing for independent uncertainties in all
coordinates of each data point, and including an error analysis.
Note: This paper is adapted from a technical report I wrote as a
graduate student in the Department of Physics, University of
California, Berkeley, in 1976.
