Data is rarely so uniform and predictable that plotting data points creates a perfectly linear arrangement. Scatter charts might have wildly varying plots that create a seemingly random correlation ...

I've been grading calculus exams this week, and even though my students did quite well overall there were a couple of errors that I see every semester. Errors that make mathematicians' heads explode.

Six non-linear growth functions were fitted to tree height-diameter data of ten conifer species collected in the inland Northwest of the United States. The data sets represented a wide range of tree ...

In this paper we develop the theory of linear models using the properties of Linear Zero Functions. It is shown that all the major results on inference can be derived using these properties and simple ...

Plant growth is an essential ecological process, integrating across scales from physiology to community dynamics. Predicting the growth of plants is essential to understand a wide range of ecological ...
