They review existing techniques for collecting these measurements and then present their own linear guide. The second contribution made is the use of a weighted least squares estimation technique. They form maximum likelihood estimators and develop a recursive algorithm to identify the error parameters. They found that if a sufficiently large number of points is taken, the difference between wieghted and normal least squares estimation is reduced.}, keywords = {imported } }
