C. Moreno et H. Bruzzone, PARAMETERS VARIANCES OF A LEAST-SQUARES DETERMINED STRAIGHT-LINE WITHERRORS IN BOTH COORDINATES, Measurement science & technology, 4(5), 1993, pp. 635-636
A year ago, a paper dealing with parameters' errors of a least-squares
determined curve was published by Cecchi. Very recently, Kalantar cor
rectly pointed out that the results quoted by Cecchi for the variance
estimates of a straight-line fit do not agree with those previously re
ported by other authors. Nevertheless, for straight-line fits the form
alism discussed by Cecchi is essentially correct. In the present commu
nication, complete agreement between results is achieved after some de
tailed calculations.
