A global optimization technique for zero-residual nonlinear least-squares problems

This thesis introduces a globalization strategy for approximating global minima of zero-residual least-squares problems. This class of nonlinear programming problems arises often in data-fitting applications in the fields of engineering and applied science. Such minimization problems are formulated...
