The class of nonlinear stochastic regression models includes most of the linear and nonlinear models used in time series, stochastic control and stochastic approximation schemes. The consistency of ...

Modern measurement techniques allow researchers to gather ever more data in less time. In many cases, however, the primary or raw data have to be further analyzed, be it for the verification of a ...
