overdetermined system
1Overdetermined system — For the philosophical term, see overdetermination. In mathematics, a system of linear equations is considered overdetermined if there are more equations than unknowns.[1] The terminology can be described in terms of the concept of counting… …

4Integrable system — In mathematics and physics, there are various distinct notions that are referred to under the name of integrable systems. In the general theory of differential systems, there is Frobenius integrability, which refers to overdetermined systems. In… …
5Linear least squares — is an important computational problem, that arises primarily in applications when it is desired to fit a linear mathematical model to measurements obtained from experiments. The goals of linear least squares are to extract predictions from the… …
6Linear least squares/Proposed — Linear least squares is an important computational problem, that arises primarily in applications when it is desired to fit a linear mathematical model to observations obtained from experiments. Mathematically, it can be stated as the problem of… …
7Linear least squares (mathematics) — This article is about the mathematics that underlie curve fitting using linear least squares. For statistical regression analysis using least squares, see linear regression. For linear regression on a single variable, see simple linear regression …
8Simultaneous equations — In mathematics simultaneous equations are a set of equations containing multiple variables. This set is often referred to as a system of equations. To solve simultaneous equations, the solver needs to use the provided equations to find the exact… …
