On the difference between orthogonal matching pursuit and orthogonal least squares
, 2007 — Greedy algorithms are often used to solve underdetermined inverse problems when the solution is constrained to be sparse, i.e. the solution is only expected to have a relatively small number of non-zero elements.

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high‐magnitude stress.

%QLS SAS Macro: A SAS Macro for Analysis of Correlated Data Using Quasi-Least Squares
Quasi-least squares (QLS) is an alternative computational approach for estimation of the correlation parameter in the framework of generalized estimating equations (GEE). QLS overcomes some limitations of GEE that were discussed in Crowder (1995).

Least squares estimation of joint production functions by the differential evolution method of global optimization [PDF]
Most of the studies relating to estimation of joint production functions have noted two difficulties: first that allocation of inputs to different outputs is not known, and the second that a method of estimation cannot have more than one dependent ...

Trajectories of Physical Function in Canadian Children With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We describe trajectories of physical function in children newly diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and identify trajectories with persisting functional impairments and associated baseline characteristics. Methods We included patients enrolled in the Canadian Alliance of Pediatric Rheumatology Investigators (CAPRI) Registry ...
