TL;DR: This paper considers stable numerical methods for handling linear least squares problems that frequently involve large quantities of data, and they are ill-conditioned by their very nature.
Abstract: A common problem in a Computer Laboratory is that of finding linear least squares solutions. These problems arise in a variety of areas and in a variety of contexts. Linear least squares problems are particularly difficult to solve because they frequently involve large quantities of data, and they are ill-conditioned by their very nature. In this paper, we shall consider stable numerical methods for handling these problems. Our basic tool is a matrix decomposition based on orthogonal Householder transformations.
