Sabine Van Huffel
Sabine J. A. Van Huffel (born September 26, 1958) is a Belgian computer scientist, applied mathematician, and electrical engineer, whose research concerns computational methods for medical diagnostics, and in particular methods based on total least squares. Education and career Van Huffel was born in Menen. She earned bachelor's and doctoral degrees from KU Leuven in 1981 and 1987, with Joos Vandewalle as her doctoral advisor. Her dissertation, ''Analysis of the Total Least Squares Problem and its use in parameter estimation'', concerned total least squares methods for parameter estimation. She is a full professor at KU Leuven since 2002 . and a Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) since 2014 (until 2022). Book With Vandewalle, Van Huffel is the author of the book ''The Total Least Squares Problem: Computational Aspects and Analysis'' (SIAM, 1991).

Total Least Squares
In applied statistics, total least squares is a type of errors-in-variables regression, a least squares data modeling technique in which observational errors on both dependent and independent variables are taken into account. It is a generalization of Deming regression and also of orthogonal regression, and can be applied to both linear and non-linear models. The total least squares approximation of the data is generically equivalent to the best, in the Frobenius norm, low-rank approximation of the data matrix. Linear model Background In the least squares method of data modeling, the objective function, ''S'', :S=\mathbf, is minimized, where ''r'' is the vector of residuals and ''W'' is a weighting matrix. In linear least squares the model contains equations which are linear in the parameters appearing in the parameter vector \boldsymbol\beta, so the residuals are given by :\mathbf. There are ''m'' observations in y and ''n'' parameters in β with ''m''>''n''. X is a '' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Academic Staff Of The Eindhoven University Of Technology
An academy (Attic Greek: Ἀκαδήμεια; Koine Greek Ἀκαδημία) is an institution of secondary or tertiary higher learning (and generally also research or honorary membership). The name traces back to Plato's school of philosophy, founded approximately 385 BC at Akademia, a sanctuary of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and skill, north of Athens, Greece. Etymology The word comes from the ''Academy'' in ancient Greece, which derives from the Athenian hero, ''Akademos''. Outside the city walls of Athens, the gymnasium was made famous by Plato as a center of learning. The sacred space, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom, Athena, had formerly been an olive grove, hence the expression "the groves of Academe". In these gardens, the philosopher Plato conversed with followers. Plato developed his sessions into a method of teaching philosophy and in 387 BC, established what is known today as the Old Academy. By extension, ''academia'' has come to mean the accumulation, dev ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
