Least-square variance-covariance component estimation method based on the equivalent conditional adjustment model

A VCE method termed the least-square variance-covariance component estimation method based on the equivalent conditional misclosure (LSV-ECM) is developed. Three steps are involved. First, the equivalent conditional misclosure is extracted using the projection matrix in the equivalent conditional ad...
