    • Anomalies of the magnitude of the bias of the maximum likelihood estimator of the regression slope 

      O'Driscoll, Diarmuid; Ramirez, Donald E. (Athens Institute for Education and Research, 2015)
      The slope of the best-fit line y h x x 0 1  ( )    from minimizing a function of the squared vertical and horizontal errors is the root of a polynomial of degree four which has exactly two real roots, one positive and ...

    • Moment estimation of measurement errors 

      O'Driscoll, Diarmuid; Ramirez, Donald E. (NEDETAS, 2011)
      The slope of the best-fit line from minimizing a function of the squared vertical and horizontal errors is the root of a polynomial of degree four. We use second order and fourth order moment equations to estimate the ratio ...
