Nonlinear Least Squares Model Estimation

Element Name Description
OK Click the OK button in the User-Specified Regression, Least Squares dialog box (after specifying the regression equation via the Estimated Function dialog box) to display the Nonlinear Least Squares Model Estimation dialog box, which contains three tabs: Quick, Advanced, and Review. Use the options in this dialog box to specify the estimation method, number of iterations, and convergence criterion, as well as to select other options.
Summary box The Summary box at the top of the dialog box displays a summary of the model and parameters established so far in the analysis. You can review the choices and if they are not appropriate, click the Cancel button to return to the User-Specified Regression, Least Squares dialog box to make changes.
Copy button Click the Copy button to copy either the selected text (if text has been selected) in the Summary box or all of the text (if no text has been selected) to the Clipboard. Note that the copied text retains formatting information (such as font, color, etc.).
