摘要
Existence of a least squares solution for a sum of several weighted normal functions is proved. The gradient descent (GD) method is used to fit the measured data (i.e. the laser grain-size distribution of the sediments) with a sum of three weighted lognormal functions. The numerical results indicate that the GD method is not only easy to operate but also could effectively optimize the parameters of the fitting function with the error decreasing steadily. Meanwhile the overall fitting results are satisfactory. As a new way of data fitting, the GD method could also be used to solve other optimization problems. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
